UK Horse Racing Tips: Market Rasen

Dan Skelton's PEPPAY LE PUGH has been mixing it over fences and hurdles with great credit this season and the in-form eight-year-old has the chance to follow up up his Doncaster victory earlier this month for a red-hot team. Mon Port has always been held in high regard by his handler Olly Murphy, who enjoys sending runners here and his charge should be suited by the drop in trip, while the form of Mr Scrumpy's Carlisle bumper third is strong and he has to be respected.
Prediction : 1st Peppay Le Pugh 2nd Mr Scrumpy 3rd Mon Port

SHANROE TIC TEC has been thriving of late and, having impressed in the hands of this rider at Huntingdon last time out, is backed to land a quick-fire hat-trick under a 7lb penalty. Go As You Please could benefit for the switch to handicap company and is worthy of a market check, while Micras has made the podium on all three outings in 2019 and remains feasibly treated.
Prediction : 1st Shanroe Tic Tec 2nd Micras 3rd Go As You Please

EMERALD CHIEFTAN put up what was arguably a career-best chase performance when third at Southwell earlier this month and arrives here in good order off just a 1lb higher mark. Loch Garman Aris is a solid operator who appears feasibly treated, while Truckers Tangle has plenty of decent form in the book but may be seen to better effect over shorter than this.
Prediction : 1st Emerald Chieftan 2nd Loch Garman Aris 3rd Truckers Tangle

The admirable veteran BRAVE SPARTACUS was an impressive seven-length winner over course and distance last time and just a 5lb rise gives Gillian Bonas' 13-year-old a great chance of following up at a course he has a great record at. Picknick Park wasn't beaten far here last time and could go one better up in trip off a 3lb higher rating, while Thyne For Gold and Uno Valoroso are others who have to be respected.
Prediction : 1st Brave Spartacus 2nd Picknick Park 3rd Thyne For Gold

LET'S GET AT IT landed his second win of the campaign when romping to a seven-length victory last time out and Olly Murphy's course winner makes plenty of appeal once again off an 8lb higher mark. The consistent Ardera Cross has made the podium on his last three outings and William Marshall removing 10lb in the plate helps, while Discay wasn't beaten too far when third over track and trip last time and has been left on 109.
Prediction : 1st Lets Get At It 2nd Discay 3rd Ardera Cross

KATEBIRD has been given a chance to build on her Leicester third off just a 1lb higher mark with cheekpieces now applied and, the youngest competitor in the field, she can get the better of Oscar Nomination, who hasn't been disgraced on his last two Rules appearances and boasts some decent point-to-point form. Any further rain brings Georgian Firebird into calculations and she can be forgiven her Haydock disappointment in January, while Darsi's Jewel could have more to offer.
Prediction : 1st Katebird 2nd Oscar Nomination 3rd Georgian Firebird

MADAM MALINA took a step in the right direction when second over 2m at Ludlow in January and rates the one to beat on that evidence. Aggy With It should be all the wiser for the experience gained when fifth on debut at Aintree in October and is expected to take closer order for a Dan Skelton stable who have their string in good order at present, while Roaring Fury is going the right way and no forlorn hope for a place.
Prediction : 1st Madam Malina 2nd Aggy With It 3rd Roaring Fury
