UK Horse Racing Tips: Bath

Melo Pearl arguably put in a career best when finishing second over 7f at Brighton earlier in the month and she should go well once again if seeing out the longer trip. That said, preference is still for UNCERTAIN SMILE, who has displayed promise in novice company and an opening mark of 60 is fair. Others to consider are The Game Is On and Sibylline.
Prediction : 1st Uncertain Smile 2nd Melo Pearl 3rd The Game Is On

FANZONE bumped into a smart juvenile when finishing second on his debut at York a couple of weeks ago and he can be expected to go one better now. Too Hard To Hold is the most experienced of these and that will stand him in good stead. Dreamy Rascal is another with claims, while Streamline merits a market inspection.
Prediction : 1st Fanzone 2nd Too Hard To Hold 3rd Dreamy Rascal

George Boughey has his first competitive runner as a trainer with GEORGE DRYDEN and can make it a winning one. Fourth on his last start at Wolverhampton, the seven-year-old has dropped to a tempting mark of 71 and should enjoy this return to turf. Holdenhurst scored over C&D a fortnight ago and likes fast ground, while Devils Roc was just outpaced over 5f at Newbury and will appreciate this stiffer test of stamina.
Prediction : 1st George Dryden 2nd Holdenhurst 3rd Devils Roc

Compatriot returns to the Flat after a disappointing performance over hurdles at Market Rasen and the booking of crack 5lb apprentice Cieren Fallon is a shrewd one, while Street Jester bounced back to form when scoring here two weeks ago and goes well on a lively surface. ROSIE ROYALE has been raised 4lb for a successful trip to Chepstow earlier this month, but she is expected to remain competitive and looks like the one to beat.
Prediction : 1st Rosie Royale 2nd Street Jester 3rd Compatriot

HERITAGE has benefited from the change to front-running tactics on her last two course outings and Clive Cox's filly makes plenty of appeal despite carrying a 6lb penalty. Miss Celestial has been highly tried throughout her career and warrants respect dropping into handicap company with the stable in excellent form. Storm Melody appears best of the remainder having won three of his last four starts.
Prediction : 1st Heritage 2nd Miss Celestial 3rd Storm Melody

Mark Johnston has his string in fine fettle at present and WELCOMING is taken to return to winning ways. She rediscovered her form when a short-head second at Beverley last week and runs off a 2lb lower rating on this occasion. Canal Rocks got off the mark at Newbury earlier in the month and is capable of going close again despite a 6lb rise, while Shake Me Handy remains unexposed on his handicap bow.
Prediction : 1st Welcoming 2nd Canal Rocks 3rd Shake Me Handy

BADER won at Windsor when benefiting from a change of tactics, with headgear on for the first time. He drops back a couple of furlongs but on the evidence of that performance, is unlikely to have any issue with it. Three C's sports blinkers for the first time on his debut for George Boughey and has pieces of form to suggest he can be competitive. Spirit Of Lucerne's recent third at Brighton gives her every chance too.
Prediction : 1st Bader 2nd Three Cs 3rd Spirit Of Lucerne
