UK Horse Racing Tips: Yarmouth

SCALE FORCE has hit the crossbar on a couple of occasions this month and that includes his narrow defeat at Wolverhampton on Monday. Off a 1lb lower mark, the three-year-old should take plenty of beating this afternoon. Texting ran well over 6f here a couple of weeks ago and she could prove to be the main threat to the selection, ahead of Mr Buttons.
Prediction : 1st Scale Force 2nd Texting 3rd Mr Buttons

BORN TO DESTROY has displayed plenty of promise in both previous starts and the step up to 6f may bring about enough improvement in the son of Camacho to see him get off the mark this afternoon. Otago was only narrowly denied here last time out and he is another with strong form claims, while My Motivate Girl is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Born To Destroy 2nd Otago 3rd My Motivate Girl

BATTLE OF PEMBROKE ran well on his handicap debut when fourth at Redcar behind the reopposing Victoriano last month. That performance suggested he is capable of getting his head in front, having travelled well on that occasion, and remains unexposed with the handicapper dropping him 2lb. The aforementioned Victoriano has placed on his last couple of outings and is entitled to be in the mix once again, while the likes of No Thanks and Thomas Cubitt, who sports cheekpieces for the first time, are both capable of further progression in this sphere.
Prediction : 1st Battle Of Pembroke 2nd Victoriano 3rd Funny Man

ELSIE VIOLET appeared to benefit from the change to front-running tactics when just denied in the closing stages over 1m4f at Lingfield earlier in the month. Providing she can break on terms once again, the drop in trip is no issue and the daughter of Gale Force Ten may have more to offer. Fair Power is likely to be in the mix once again based on his recent efforts at Brighton, while the return to 1m2f could see Swiss Peak take a step forward.
Prediction : 1st Fair Power 2nd Elsie Violet 3rd Swiss Peak

AWEEDRAM unseated his rider and galloped loose on the way to post before being withdrawn from the Britannia last week, but if his mind is on the matter in hand here then he's on a mark off which he's capable of being competitive. Prior to that he landed back-to-back 1m contests at Newmarket and Ascot and wasn't disgraced in a hot contest at Haydock last time out. The main danger may be William Haggas' handicap debutant Destination, who steps up beyond 7f for the first time, while a big run from recent C&D winner Wiretap would also come as no surprise.
Prediction : 1st Aweedram 2nd Destination 3rd Wiretap

Marhaba Milliar has a 300-day absence to overcome but was denied a hat-trick by a short-head when last sighted on the all-weather in September and would be interesting if the market vibes were positive ahead of his return. With the benefit of a recent run to his name, however, MOTAKHAYYEL shades the vote. He still showed signs of greenness when landing a 1m novice event at Doncaster recently but shaped as if this drop back in distance may suit. Ultimate Avenue could run his race and is no forlorn hope for a place, for all conceding weight to the aforementioned three-year-old pair won't be straightforward.
Prediction : 1st Motakhayyel 2nd Marhaba Milliar 3rd Ultimate Avenue

KING OSWALD reaffirmed his effectiveness under these conditions when finishing a half-length second over track and trip last time and wouldn't need to find much improvement in order to defy a 2lb rise. Magical Ride went down by a neck over 7f at Lingfield recently and will be hoping this additional furlong can unlock immediate improvement. The main danger, however, may Red Gunner, who has dropped 6lb in the ratings this year and hinted his turn was approaching when second off a similar mark at Bath three weeks ago.
Prediction : 1st King Oswald 2nd Red Gunner 3rd Magical Ride
