UK Horse Racing Tips: Dundalk

Cappadocia bounced back to form when winning over 7f here three weeks ago and he has to be respected once again today. That said, the preference is for AR SAOIRSE, who was only beaten a neck here last week and he should be very hard to beat off the same mark today. Others to consider are Nigg Bay, Danz Gift and Ty Rock Brandy.
Prediction : 1st Ar Saoirse 2nd Cappadocia 3rd Nigg Bay

A chance can be taken with CHATEAU CONTI, who has struggled over jumps in recent starts but he was a talented hurdler a couple of seasons ago and could go very well now switched to the Flat. Georgian Bay won a claimer here back in January and he could pose the biggest threat to the selection, ahead of New Vocation and Ishebayorgrey.
Prediction : 1st Chateau Conti 2nd Georgian Bay 3rd New Vocation

MASALAI accounted for an in-form rival when winning over a mile here last month and a 4lb rise for that success is fair. The step up in trip is a slight concern but he did make the frame on his sole previous start over C&D. Alhajjaj's most recent performances offer plenty of encouragement and he should not be out of the frame, while Ciao completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Masalai 2nd Alhajjaj 3rd Ciao

MAGIC SEA justified plenty of each-way support when second over course and distance five weeks ago and looks poised to go well for Sarah Dawson. The four-year-old appears open to greater improvement than most and could prove too strong at the line for the more exposed Poitin. Lusis Naturea ran his best race for a while when second here last week, while Phebes Dream could prove best of the rather modest remainder.
Prediction : 1st Magic Sea 2nd Lusis Naturea 3rd Poitin

ROYAL COURT was best of the remainder behind a potentially top-class Aidan O'Brien-trained colt here last time and that form looks worth following. The three-year-old receives 4lb from recent winner Empire Line, who also finished second in a hot contest here in January behind British raider Charming Kid. Kafu looks open to bundles of improvement, while Beau Warrior landed a hat-trick here in November/December and is respected following a 91-day absence.
Prediction : 1st Royal Court 2nd Empire Line 3rd Beau Warrior

LATCHET has rattled the bar the last twice over a mile, but has a chance to go one better now dropping back to seven furlongs for a top stable off just a 2lb higher mark. Iseebreeze is only 3lb higher than when beaten a head over track and trip last time and has to come into calculations, while Pedro De Styles and Three Majors are others with useful form over this distance who could offer a little value.
Prediction : 1st Latchet 2nd Iseebreeze 3rd Three Majors

HASSELNOTT performed better than the result suggested over seven furlongs earlier this month and the return to a mile is in his favour here, having won over course and distance the run before that. Secret Wizard has been performing well over further of late and is a track-and-trip winner so warrants respect, while Jackmel was only beaten a neck when last seen in November and is interesting off just 2lb higher now.
Prediction : 1st Hasselnott 2nd Secret Wizard 3rd Jackmel

ISOSCELES was much improved for the step up to a mile when getting off the mark in battling fashion over course and distance last month and it would be no surprise if Mick Halford's Godolphin colt follows up here with that experience under his belt. Gold Jasmine was a winner here over seven furlongs earlier this month on her first outing for 119 days and has to be respected up at a mile off a 3lb higher mark. Indiana Grey was two lengths adrift in fifth that day and is another who could get involved.
Prediction : 1st Isosceles 2nd Gold Jasmine 3rd Indiana Grey
