UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

DOVE DIVINE has some solid form in novice company and could be fairly treated on her handicap debut off an opening mark of 72. The three-year-old didn't mind a drop to 7f here in December and is likely to have strengthened up following a 167-day absence. Sirinapha has Silvestre De Sousa on board now and has been gelded, while In The Cove and Revolutionise are others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Dove Divine 2nd Sirinapha 3rd In The Cove

QUIET PLACE has found one too good on each of her two career starts, but may have bumped into a nice one at Beverley three weeks ago and can take this before moving towards better things. The step up to 6f is expected to suit the Kodiac filly and this looks to be a suitable opening for her. Angel Of Delight cost 120,000gns as a yearling and could prove best of the newcomers on show, while Hollaback Girl has hinted at possessing ability and is well worth a try over an extra furlong.
Prediction : 1st Quiet Place 2nd Angel Of Delight 3rd Hollaback Girl

My Law outran 66-1 odds when third at Windsor in April but is far from sure to follow that up, while Ever Rock failed to build on a career-best success when only beating two home at Bath on fast ground 34 days ago. VALLEY BELLE on the other hand seldom runs a bad race at this level, and gave the impression that a return to 6f would suit when staying on well over an insufficient trip at Chelmsford last week.
Prediction : 1st Valley Belle 2nd My Law 3rd Ever Rock

HARRY'S BAR has a good sprint pedigree and could appreciate a first try over 5f after failing to shed the maiden tag in five attempts over a furlong further. He has often raced with the choke out, but an aggressive ride over the minimum distance could just unlock his potential. Cappananty Con is consistent and was second at Chelmsford just four days ago, while Green Door is a course and distance winner who returned to form when second on Tapeta a fortnight ago.
Prediction : 1st Harrys Bar 2nd Cappananty Con 3rd Green Door

DEEBAJ makes his first appearance on the Flat since running second over track and trip last year. He enjoyed a decent spell over hurdles throughout the winter months and remains on the same mark which can see him return to winning ways. Fitzwilly ran better when placed at Chepstow on his most recent start and can build on that effort. Mary Elise has the assistance of Oisin Murphy in the saddle and that, along with the step up to 2m, could see her improve.
Prediction : 1st Deebaj 2nd Fitzwilly 3rd Mary Elise

First In Line appears the first string on jockey bookings of the John Gosden pair with Frankie Dettori on board after a solid enough effort to finish second at Nottingham in April. However, the run of HARROVIAN at Newmarket, where he finished runner-up, was a hugely eye-catching effort as he made up a heap of ground in the closing stages to be beaten half a length. He will have learnt plenty from that experience and can get off the mark at the second attempt. Rum Baba has been gelded since his debut at Newmarket at the Craven meeting and is expected to improve plenty on this occasion.
Prediction : 1st Harrovian 2nd First In Line 3rd Rum Baba

CALCULATION has kept good company on his three outings in maidens and the regally-bred gelding, out of Gold Cup winner Estimate, is expected to improve for going handicapping up in distance with Sir Michael Stoute's string in rude health at present. Vindolanda appears to have a fair opening mark based on what she has achieved to date, while Tammooz and Mon Frere are others open to progression in this sphere.
Prediction : 1st Calculation 2nd Vindolanda 3rd Tammooz
