2025 Newton Novices’ Hurdle Betting Tips

Punters at Haydock will be looking to make a winning start on the racecard when they wager on the Newton Novices’ Hurdle. Masked Man began with a victory on the all-weather before a more recent success. The Twiston-Davies’ were pleased with an effort at Chepstow where the 7/4 favourite was able to land an impressive twelve-length success.

However, Sticktotheplan has claimed three wins in the previous four encounters. Olly Murphy trains a five-year-old who has a stack of experience, with the latest victory coming at Chepstow in October. That was a four length success and came after a previous July triumph at Galway, with the horse landing a May victory at Listowel.

Hamlet’s Night can’t be easily discounted and there’s been a string of ones and twos in the form guide. James Owen’s four-year-old was able to secure the spoils at Stratford in early September and that came before another success at Warwick. The horse then ran well at Cheltenham when losing by a neck in a hurdle race against a strong odds-on favourite.

Idaho Sun has some of the strongest form and the latest effort was a success at Fontwell. Sent off as the 4/9 favourite, the horse was able to oblige by three and a half lengths. Back in March, there was a solid effort at the Cheltenham Festival in the Wetherby’s Champion Bumper where the horse struck to land sixth in a flat encounter.
