UK Horse Racing Tips: Sligo

EASTERN RACER failed to fire in a handicap last time, but he is a proven winner at this level and his second-placed finish at Ballinrobe two starts ago offers plenty of encouragement. Bruinneall is another who could go well based upon the pick of her form, while Oakmont and Cash In Mind also merit a place on the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Eastern Racer 2nd Bruinneall 3rd Oakmont

FOR THE TREES has improved with every start to date and this appears to be an ideal opportunity for the daughter of Ivawood to get off the mark. Believe In Beauty is another who brings strong form to the table and she is an obvious threat. Glow Worm is more exposed than the aforementioned pair but should be in the mix.
Prediction : 1st For The Trees 2nd Believe In Beauty 3rd Glow Worm

Dolce Sicily has to be respected following her victory at Fairyhouse a couple of months ago but an opening mark of 77 is stiff enough. With that in mind, preference is for IN FROM THE COLD, who was 7lb out of the handicap when finishing a close third at Galway on Saturday and he should take plenty of beating off his correct mark this afternoon. Others to consider are Megans Beau, Erlking and Cobb And Co.
Prediction : 1st In From The Cold 2nd Dolce Sicily 3rd Erlking

ANYTHINGYOUWANTOBE wasn't beaten far when third over a similar trip here in June and, with a hood now tried, she has a great chance of building on that effort off the same mark. Kodiqueen was only a length away from victory at Fairyhouse and looks to better that third-placed finish off the same rating, while Trueba and Killarney second Adapt To Dan are others to note, both dropping back in trip.
Prediction : 1st Anythingyouwantobe 2nd Kodiqueen 3rd Trueba

OPENING VERSE beat some useful-looking rivals when opening his account at Cork on just his second outing in April and the lightly-raced three-year-old is interesting looking to enhance his reputation down in trip. That's Not Me was an encouraging second on his first run for six months at Fairyhouse and warrants respect, while Adrian McGuinness' stable newcomer Scorching Heat hasn't been seen much of late but has the form in the book to suggest he could get involved if reappearing at his best.
Prediction : 1st Opening Verse 2nd Thats Not Me 3rd Scorching Heat

KASTASA ran on well to finish third on her handicap bow at Leopardstown in May and she remains open to further progression receiving the weight-for-age allowance. Latoyah Of North placed in a Galway handicap on Friday behind Mr Adjudicator and is entitled to be in contention if handling the quick turnaround, while Hayyel is worth another chance in handicap company after finishing down the field at the Curragh last month.
Prediction : 1st Kastasa 2nd Latoyah Of North 3rd Hayyel

TAKEACHANCEJIMMY has proven to be a versatile performer regarding distances, having won earlier in the year over an extended 5f at Navan, and his most recent outing when second over an extended 1m1f at Ballinrobe suggested he was worth a try at this trip. Edification has been running consistently well of late and must enter calculations, along with Elite Trooper Grey, who has finished second on his last couple of outings.
Prediction : 1st Takeachancejimmy 2nd Edification 3rd Elite Trooper Grey

MUSALSAL has shown some promise in his three outings so far and this half-brother to Zawraq, a Listed winner, is expected to take a step forward on his first run in a handicap. Ellaat arrives in decent form having improved since switched to this sphere three starts ago, while the drop back in distance could see Millford Sound in the mix once again.
Prediction : 1st Musalsal 2nd Ellaat 3rd Millford Sound
