UK Horse Racing Tips: Ripon

BETTY GRABLE has been in outstanding form so far in 2019 and her two recent narrow defeats suggest that she can win a race of this nature. French Flyer bounced back to form when finishing second at Hamilton 19 days ago and that effort gives him a big chance. Others to note are Rosy Ryan, Tom's Anna and Snooker Jim.
Prediction : 1st Betty Grable 2nd French Flyer 3rd Snooker Jim

CLOUDEA was an impressive winner over course and distance last month and the daughter of Clodovil is hard to oppose, despite having to carry a penalty. Ruby Wonder struggled in a Listed event last time but she has to be considered based on her previous form in similar races to this. Vintage Times and Rose Bandit are others to keep an eye on.
Prediction : 1st Cloudea 2nd Ruby Wonder 3rd Vintage Times

ISOBAR WIND appeared to improve for a gelding operation when a six-length winner in a seller over course and distance last month and that form suggests the son of Baltic King could be dangerous off a mark of 70. Singe Anglais has arguably improved with every start to date and may have more to offer, while similar comments apply to Schumli.
Prediction : 1st Isobar Wind 2nd Singe Anglais 3rd Schumli

CAUSTIC LOVE has already landed two victories this term, tasting success over 6f and 7f, and having gone close off this rating at Doncaster most recently, she is of real interest trying a mile for the first time. The form of Sandret's York second was boosted when the winner followed up next time and Ben Haslam's three-year-old is just 1lb higher, while this looks Oasis Prince's ideal trip and he was sent off favourite at Nottingham latest.
Prediction : 1st Caustic Love 2nd Sandret 3rd Oasis Prince

COUNT D'ORSAY was a winner over this distance at Naas on his final start for Charles O'Brien and, off a fair mark of 76, he has a great chance of following up on his first outing for Tim Easterby. Hawk In The Sky opened his account in a Beverley novice contest last month and the lightly-raced gelding has to be respected on his handicap bow, while track-and-trip winner Ginvincible is also considered.
Prediction : 1st Count DOrsay 2nd Hawk In The Sky 3rd Ginvincible

GOLD ARCH, second over course and distance off a 5lb lower mark two starts ago, was on the scoresheet at Wolverhampton for the second time this season last month and could be the answer here. Track-and-trip winner Theatro has to bounce back following a disappointing effort last time, therefore a bigger challenge may come from Doncaster runner-up Menin Gate. Neileta has some smart form in the book and is also respected, as is Euro Implosion.
Prediction : 1st Gold Arch 2nd Menin Gate 3rd Theatro
