UK Horse Racing Tips: Newton Abbot

Paul Nicholls boasts a 29 percent strike-rate at this venue in the last five seasons and his course-and-distance winner PARODY is hard to oppose as she looks to follow up her impressive 11-length victory earlier this month. Moans Cross drew clear to open his account at Uttoxeter last time and rates as the main danger to the selection, as Eden Flyer has 56 lengths to make up with Parody.
Prediction : 1st Parody 2nd Moans Cross 3rd Eden Flyer

The consistent FIFTY SHADES continues to hit the frame and, following another fine performance to finish second at Fakenham last time, he has to be given plenty of respect over a track and trip he has scored over in the past. Little Windmill is another with a decent record here and has to be on the shortlist despite his latest disappointment, while Our Reward was just edging into contention when unseating his rider earlier this month and is noted.
Prediction : 1st Fifty Shades 2nd Our Reward 3rd Little Windmill

TEQANY wasn't beaten far on his stable debut for Fergal O'Brien at Stratford and has a chance to better that performance up in distance slightly off just a 1lb higher mark. Majestic Touch was a consistent performer last winter and has tasted success here in the past, while Donald McCain's Constancio has to be respected with his latest Cartmel effort forgiven.
Prediction : 1st Teqany 2nd Majestic Touch 3rd Constancio

TEASER followed up his 2m hurdles victory at Ludlow with a comfortable success over the same trip on his fencing bow at Ffos Las last time and is taken to complete a treble. Storm Home and Admiral's Sunset need to step up on their recent chasing performances in order to figure so the main danger may be David Pipe's Delface, a four-time hurdles winner who tackles the larger obstacles for the first time.
Prediction : 1st Teaser 2nd Delface 3rd Storm Home

David Pipe representative OURMULLION bolted up by eight lengths over track and trip when last sighted and rates the one to beat now turned out under a 7lb penalty. Nabhan struck on the level at Epsom earlier in the month and is worth a market check now moving back over timber, while Excellent Team could have more to offer after finishing fourth over C&D recently on his first start since April.
Prediction : 1st Ourmullion 2nd Nabhan 3rd Excellent Team

SAMSON made a winning start to life with Dr Richard Newland at Worcester at the start of the month and a 10lb rise appears very fair due to the manner of that success. Royal Magic fell on his latest course appearance but has the assistance of Richard Johnson in the saddle, while the consistent As You Like is likely to be in the mix once again with the potential for improvement to come from his return effort.
Prediction : 1st Samson 2nd Royal Magic 3rd As You Like

CRYSTAL GAZING finished third on her racecourse debut at Southwell last month when unable to justify market support. However, the daughter of Sulamani is in the right hands to progress from that effort and she could prove too strong for Josie Abbing, who comes over from Ireland and has the services of champion jockey Richard Johnson. Noel's Boy, who finished second in a C&D bumper 24 days ago, is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Crystal Gazing 2nd Josie Abbing 3rd Noels Boy
