UK Horse Racing Tips: Carlisle

65,000gns yearling WAFRAH is out of a two-year-old winner (albeit on the all-weather) and looked to need the experience when finishing down the field in a hot Ascot event on debut 32 days ago. She wears cheekpieces now and has also changed hands (formerly trained by Richard Hughes), so could fare much better. Heavens Open represents some powerful connections in the shape of Cheveley Park Stud and Richard Fahey, while Classy Moon cost 220,000 pounds at the breeze-up sales in April and has joined a handler with a healthy record at this track.
Prediction : 1st Wafrah 2nd Classy Moon 3rd Heavens Open

FREEROLLING scored with ease on debut at Chelmsford last month, landing a gamble in the process, and should be suited by this stiff finish under a penalty for Charlie Fellowes. The four-year-old looked like a big, galloping type there and could be seen to even greater effect later in the season over further. Mount Ararat is clearly talented but has proved frustrating to follow in his career so far, while Regal Lilly was far from disgraced on her debut at Haydock when fourth last month.
Prediction : 1st Freerolling 2nd Regal Lilly 3rd Mount Ararat

MOTAHASSEN showed his liking for testing ground when scoring at Haydock on Friday and would prove difficult to stop if fully over those exertions now encountering similar conditions. It makes sense to keep the five-year-old on the go while conditions remain slow, and this stamina-sapping track is ideal for Declan Carroll's charge, who is already a C&D winner. Spirit Of Sarwan was second on soft ground at Hamilton last time and is only 1lb higher this evening, while Mr Carbonator and Cliff Bay are others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Motahassen 2nd Spirit Of Sarwan 3rd Cliff Bay

JACKHAMMER was in excellent form during May, winning two of his four starts and placing on his other outings, and Dianne Sayer's gelding appears capable of defying a 7lb rise from the assessor after his recent C&D victory. Milan Reef has been knocking on the door and has to enter the reckoning having placed at Haydock on Friday, while a change of scenery (formerly in the care of Gary Moore) could see Kafeel take a step forward.
Prediction : 1st Jackhammer 2nd Milan Reef 3rd Kafeel

ARCHAEOLOGY built on his first start, when second at Newmarket, for Jedd O'Keeffe with a victory at Doncaster at the beginning of last month and a 4lb rise from the handicapper appears very fair for the son of Charm Spirit. The drop in class can see Reggae Runner prove to be more competitive, having tackled some tough assignments of late, while the step up in trip could see Ramesses in the mix as he was unlucky with how things panned out here 22 days ago.
Prediction : 1st Archaeology 2nd Reggae Runner 3rd Ramesses

OH YES PLEASE improved with each outing as a juvenile and was last seen finishing fourth here back in September. The daughter of Lethal Force makes a fair amount of appeal on her handicap debut and could prove too strong for Three Castles, who drops in trip after a solid first run in this sphere over 1m1f at Musselburgh, and recent Wetherby runner-up Bumblekite.
Prediction : 1st Oh Yes Please 2nd Three Castles 3rd Bumblekite

REGAL BANNER ran well over 7f when finishing a neck second in a novice contest at Wolverhampton in December and is expected to step up on her recent comeback effort on soft ground at Nottingham now she has the benefit of the outing behind her and goes handicapping. Outside Inside could build on her latest effort in 0-80 company at Ayr now her sights are lowered, while there may be better to come from recent Ayr winner Polyphony.
Prediction : 1st Regal Banner 2nd Outside Inside 3rd Polyphony

PANATOS won over 2m at Chepstow on his penultimate outing and although he was held in second at the same venue last time, he did finish five lengths clear of the rest of the field and may still be improving. Tawseef is worth a market check now returning from a spell hurdling as he's a C&D winner and only 3lb higher than his last winning Flat mark. Le Musee was doing his best work late on over 1m6f at Lingfield last month and is another to consider now stepping up in trip off a 3lb lower mark.
Prediction : 1st Panatos 2nd Tawseef 3rd Le Musee
