UK Horse Racing Tips: Stratford

PURPLE KING was only narrowly denied by a former high-class Flat performer in a similar event at Southwell eight days ago and based upon that evidence, he appears to be the one to beat. Connective has displayed ability in bumpers and should not be underestimated, despite being well held on his hurdles debut, while Surrey Blaze is an interesting recruit off the level.
Prediction : 1st Purple King 2nd Connective 3rd Surrey Blaze

FIDUX accounted for a useful rival when making a winning debut over fences at Hexham last month and he is hard to oppose, despite having to carry a penalty. No Hassle Hoff is an obvious threat following his good run last time out and he may improve for the application of first-time cheekpieces. Blazing Tom, Kings Ryde and Serosevsky are also respected.
Prediction : 1st Fidux 2nd No Hassle Hoff 3rd Kings Ryde

ADRRASTOS benefited from the drop in class when scoring at Fontwell on his latest start, with I'dliketheoption behind him in third, and on that performance, he can strike again with the handicapper only putting him up 1lb. Regulation struggled on his latest start at Fontwell but can be forgiven as it was a quick turnaround having won at Fakenham three days prior, while Dandridge is still capable of being competitive at this level.
Prediction : 1st Adrrastos 2nd Regulation 3rd Dandridge

FRESH NEW DAWN won in good style on his latest start at Huntingdon, when clearly benefiting from a wind operation, in May and a 7lb rise from the handicapper may not be enough to stop him from doubling up. Dovils Date attempts to complete a hat-trick of victories and races off the same handicap mark as last time, due to winning a conditional jockeys' event at Southwell, while Handy Hollow and Gambling Gamut complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Fresh New Dawn 2nd Dovils Date 3rd Handy Hollow

Argyle was on the scoresheet in May and looks to follow up on his first outing for Jean-Rene Auvray, while there was a lot to like about the way Damut I'm Out bounced back to his best with a victory at Bangor last time. However, a chance is taken on MAURICIO, who lurks dangerously on his last winning mark (over hurdles) and is now tried in first-time blinkers following a respectable effort here last month.
Prediction : 1st Mauricio 2nd Damut Im Out 3rd Argyle

Olly Murphy enjoys plenty of success at his local track and his winning pointer VINNIE'S GETAWAY could build on his opening NH appearance here last month, having shaped with promise to pick up a silver medal. Durouyn is another to taste success between the flags and could be a player on his Rules debut, while Keith Dalgleish often does well in this sphere and his newcomer Nomountainhienough is worth a market check.
Prediction : 1st Vinnies Getaway 2nd Durouyn 3rd Nomountainhienough
