Stayers come to the fore

Make magic with Morrice

GENRES and KING OF DREAMS can show that staying is their game by scoring at Newcas­tle today.

The Betway Best Odds Guar­anteed Plus Handicap features a number of in-form horses, but it’s hard to get away from Genres lurking at the base of the handi­cap in receipt of weight from all his rivals.

The Alan Swinbank-trained five-year-old had the assistance of champion amateur Simon Walker when scoring a runaway triumph here last time. He landed some good bets as a well backed favour­ite and with that confidence boost can carry on in winning ways un­der Joe Fanning.

King Of Dreams should rep­resent eachway value in the sun­bets.co.uk Handicap and the son of Dream Ahead has scope for im­provement, having been lightly-raced so far.

Not out of the money in four ju­venile outings, he was highly tried after breaking his maiden at Ling­field.
