Dive in as class act takes drop in grade

- 

DURHAM CASTLE (1.40) would be an apt winner of Newcastle’s JenningsBet 200 Shops Nationwide Handicap over six furlongs this afternoon.

This improving sprinter landed a gamble at Windsor 12 days ago when racing off a perch of 89, so the assessor has been very fair only raising him to a new mark of 93.

In the Al Basti Equiworld Dubai Handicap run over a mile at York, three-year-old ARCHIVIST (1.55) can make the most of the age allowance he gets from his older rivals.
