UK Horse Racing Tips: Kilbeggan

GAMBLING MISTRESS is entitled to improve from her first outing in 11 months when finishing third at Tipperary earlier in the month. She kept good company last summer, finishing behind Cheltenham Festival scorer Eglantine Du Seuil and Dinons, and this represents a good opportunity for her to get off the mark. Villa Moura can bounce back after falling at Wexford last time, while Payngo may benefit from the drop back in distance.
Prediction : 1st Gambling Mistress 2nd 3rd Payngo

PARABELLUM shaped well for a long way on his hurdles bow at Fairyhouse in April before getting tired and falling at the last. That was his first run for almost a year so he is entitled to have come on for that outing and, in what appears a winnable contest on paper, he can get the better of the consistent Razoul, who has finished second on his last three starts, and Monkeylou.
Prediction : 1st Parabellum 2nd Razoul 3rd Monkeylou

HERE IN THE DARK displayed promise in juvenile hurdles last autumn, including when fourth to Triumph Hurdle runner-up Coeur Sublime at Down Royal in November, and he has to enter calculations on his handicap debut in this sphere. Misty Millie finished fourth in a handicap at the Punchestown Festival on her latest outing over timber and warrants consideration on that showing, while Song Of Namibia is better than his disappointing effort at Bellewstown earlier this month suggests.
Prediction : 1st Here In The Dark 2nd Misty Millie 3rd Song Of Namibia

BYE BYE O BYE ran his best race for a while when staying on into third at Limerick on his most recent outing. The booking of Davy Russell, who has partnered the 12-year-old to all three of his hurdle victories, along with the step back up in distance, could see the veteran performer get his head back in front. Miracle Way is quickly turned out again after finishing fourth at Downpatrick on Monday and she could benefit from first-time blinkers, while Eimear's form prior to his latest outing over C&D would put her in contention.
Prediction : 1st Bye Bye O Bye 2nd Miracle Way 3rd Eimear

EAMON HIGH (second) accounted for Westland Row (third) at this track 47 days ago and looks poised to confirm that form. Both are capable over this longer distance, but the former might just be open to greater improvement being a year younger and looks like the one to side with. Ivanovich Gorbatov is dangerous if everything falls right, while Present In Court is an intriguing recruit to this sphere and needs a betting check after a 78-day absence.
Prediction : 1st Eamon High 2nd Westland Row 3rd Present In Court

FULL CRY has winning C&D form in the book and hinted his turn was approaching again when second over the extended 3m off 2lb lower at Roscommon last month. The main danger may be Ned Stark, who battled on well to score by a head over 3m at Perth recently. Others to consider are the consistent Rathnure Rebel, who could appreciate the step back up from 2m4f, and Barra, who attracted market support in the Galway Plate Trial here last time (2m4f).
Prediction : 1st Full Cry 2nd Ned Stark 3rd Barra

Santana Plessis has failed to justify favouritism twice in recent months, though he sets the form standard for Gordon Elliott and is expected to mount a bold bid under Jamie Codd all the same. For win purposes, however, it might be worth taking a chance on TUDORS GLORY, who took a step in the right direction when fourth over 2m4f at Wexford last time and is less exposed than the first-named. Winning pointer Oscar Academy is another to bear in mind.
Prediction : 1st Tudors Glory 2nd Santana Plessis 3rd Oscar Academy
