UK Horse Racing Tips: Leopardstown

Royal Court surely won't remain a maiden for much longer and he was a good way ahead of Chamrousse when runner-up in a competitive handicap here on his penultimate outing. After two promising 1m efforts as a juvenile, it was no surprise that Baladiya was tapped for toe at the business end of her 6f comeback. Better is still expected from her, but WARTIME HERO may appreciate the drop from 7f after two encouraging displays that will have blown away any cobwebs following a lengthy spell on the sidelines.
Prediction : 1st Wartime Hero 2nd Royal Court 3rd Baladiya

Since stamping himself as a Classic contender with his Derrinstown triumph on last year's card, HAZAPOUR hasn't managed to get his head in front again, though he has kept excellent company and it may be this drop in distance, combined with the easier assignment, can have the desired effect. Verbal Dexterity has had his issues since landing the 2017 National Stakes and has ground to make up on Zihba from their recent Heritage Stakes clash. Psychedelic Funk has claims on his best efforts, but the three-year-olds look up against it.
Prediction : 1st Hazapour 2nd Zihba 3rd Verbal Dexterity
