Northumberland Plate 2026 Betting Odds

Saturday 27 June 2026 · Newcastle · By Matthew Glazier · Last updated

The Northumberland Plate looks sure to be a competitive race, with Newcastle Racecourse hosting a long-distance encounter where as many as twenty runners will line up. Opportunity has run well twice for William Haggas this season and his chances have to be respected. However, stablemate Klassleader could be an even better option at the prices.

The four-year-old is also trained by Haggas and there was a victory on a seasonal debut for a horse who could kick on from that victory. Valiancy began the campaign with a win before finishing sixth and this is yet another Haggas-trained runner. Perhaps the Ian Williams-trained Beylerbeyi can make an impact at a decent each-way price.

2026 Northumberland Plate Betting Tips

Klassleader has produced some excellent performances and the latest saw the horse pass the post first at York. The runner was sent off as the 15/8 favourite in the Jorvik Handicap before producing a commanding victory by nearly three lengths. The horse is likely to be once again held up in the rear based on the tactics at the Knavesmire over one mile and four furlongs.

Previously to this, there was a second-placed finish out of six runners at Haydock Park when missing out over one mile and six furlongs, although there was a late August win at Ffos Las. That came after finishing second at Doncaster and we can't get away from these top two finishes when it comes to placing an each-way bet on the horse for this one.

Opportunity has made some ground this year in terms of finishing third on a debut, with the horse making an outing at Ascot in a field of fourteen runners. That was followed up by a superlative victory at Carlisle at the end of May. In the Betway Handicap over one mile and three furlongs, the 11/10 favourite won by over two lengths to land the spoils.

Valiancy finished the season with a win when obliging at Haydock Park in September and the Haggas-trained runner then returned to the track to score at Hamilton in the middle of May. The 5/4 favourite produced a strong effort in Scotland when easing clear over one mile and five furlongs. However, the preference is still for stablemate Klassleader.
