UK Horse Racing Tips: Ayr

JACKHAMMER arrives on a hat-trick after scoring twice over 1m1f at Carlisle and he is expected to improve for this additional furlong. Firby struck off 4lb lower over 1m4f at Catterick in September and is entitled to step up on his recent comeback effort, especially as he now drops down from 0-70 company. Recent Beverley third Bollin Ted and Remember Rocky, who finished a narrow second over track and trip in October, look best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Jackhammer 2nd Firby 3rd Remember Rocky

ALRIGHT SUNSHINE carries a penalty after scoring over an extended 1m4f at Musselburgh in May, and he has also won three bumpers. Keith Dalgleish's charge sets the form standard on those performances and is worth sticking with, despite the fact he is cutting back in trip. 76-rated Richard Fahey inmate Noble Prospector could be tough to keep out of the frame, while any money for the returning Match Maker, who drops out of Listed company, would be interesting.
Prediction : 1st Alright Sunshine 2nd Match Maker 3rd Noble Prospector

THE RESDEV WAY looked on good terms with himself when striking over 1m6f on a foray down to Yarmouth last month and a 3lb rise in the ratings is unlikely to prevent Philip Kirby's six-year-old from mounting another bold bid. Trautmann has been admirably consistent on the all-weather and has place claims if transferring that form onto turf, while Pammi and Question Of Faith are others to keep an eye on.
Prediction : 1st The Resdev Way 2nd Trautmann 3rd Question Of Faith

ANYTHINGTODAY arguably put in his best effort for David O'Meara so far when second at Ripon behind a winner who has since performed creditably in a better event at York and the five-year-old looks ready to strike off just 1lb higher. Asian Angel caught the eye when second on just his fourth career start at Leicester and is respected, while Briardale returned to form when striking at Haydock last month and could be worth following after that confidence-boosting success.
Prediction : 1st Anythingtoday 2nd Asian Angel 3rd Briardale

Tommy G boasts impressive figures over course and distance having won three of his four starts but REDARNA, who arrives on a hat-trick following back-to-back Carlisle victories, can better that. He is 4-4 over track and trip and is difficult to get away from while evidently on good terms with himself, and he's versatile in regards to ground conditions. Jacob Black was a shade disappointing at Hamilton on Wednesday but has claims on his previous form.
Prediction : 1st Redarna 2nd Tommy G 3rd Jacob Black

VEE MAN TEN was far from disgraced when fourth of 11 at Haydock on heavy ground over further 13 days ago, and should be much better suited by this sounder surface now dropped to the minimum distance. Ivan Furtado's charge can score at the expense of Our Place In Loule, who can be forgiven a mediocre effort last time now dropped in class, and Prestbury Park, who remains on a fair handicap mark of 70 for Paul Midgley.
Prediction : 1st Vee Man Ten 2nd Our Place In Loule 3rd Prestbury Park

ALIENTO won on yard debut at Thirsk earlier in the month, when benefiting from the drop in trip, and the daughter of Bated Breath might have more to come despite a 5lb rise for that victory. Mujassam got up in the closing stages to score at Catterick on Monday and the extra furlong is unlikely to pose any issues, while Phantasmal and Colour Contrast can fight it out for the minor honours.
Prediction : 1st Aliento 2nd Mujassam 3rd Phantasmal
