UK Horse Racing Tips: Ayr

BE BOLD has acquitted himself well on his last couple of starts, finishing second at both Hamilton and Pontefract, and the booking of Serena Brotherton has to be noted in a contest of this nature. Spirit Of Sarwan arrives searching for his third victory in four outings and the the change of headgear to a first-time visor might elicit further progression. Others to watch out for include Retirement Beckons and Blue Whisper.
Prediction : 1st Be Bold 2nd Spirit Of Sarwan 3rd Retirement Beckons

Commanche Falls and Mitty's Smile both have to be respected given their previous winning form but the pair could be vulnerable under their penalties this evening. With that in mind, preference is for FUWAYRIT, who put in an eye-catching display when finishing second on his debut at Goodwood late last month. The son of Gutaifan should only improve for that first race experience and he is hard to oppose this evening.
Prediction : 1st Fuwayrit 2nd Mittys Smile 3rd Commanche Falls

MACS BLESSINGS wears blinkers for the first time now dropped back to 6f and could prove tough to stop under Megan Nicholls. The three-year-old remains on an unaltered mark of 57 and given his versatility, shouldn't be deterred by this quick turnaround having finished second at Catterick just four days ago. Forever A Lady claimed an overdue success over this C&D last month and is noted, while Jessie Allan wasn't disgraced at Carlisle last week despite being forced out wide.
Prediction : 1st Macs Blessings 2nd Forever A Lady 3rd Jessie Allan

DANDY'S BEANO has been in superb form this season, winning two of her last three outings, and makes plenty of appeal if able to transfer those all-weather victories to turf. Irish raider Super Julius has performed well at Pontefract and Hamilton recently and would have to be taken seriously if turning up following his Curragh engagement on Friday night. Similar sentiments apply to Jordan Electrics, who was due to run at Musselburgh on Friday, while He'zanarab debuts for Jim Goldie.
Prediction : 1st Dandys Beano 2nd Super Julius 3rd Hezanarab

Course-and-distance regular ROYAL REGENT was a handy third here last time, with Can Can Sixty Two (fifth) further back in the field. Lucy Normile's seven-year-old can better that placing this time and repeat his victory in this contest 12 months ago, which came off a 7lb higher mark. Gworn can't be ruled out for a trainer who fares well here, while track-and-trip winner Maulesden May and the lightly-raced Memphis Bleek are others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Royal Regent 2nd Can Can Sixty Two 3rd Maulesden May

Plenty of these have claims, none more so than ROSEMAY, who arrives here on the back of two victories, the last of which came at this track over a mile last month. Mike Smith's five-year-old mare has to be respected off just a 2lb higher mark. Roaring Forties and Royal Duchess fought out the finish in a similar event here last month and both pose obvious threats to the selection, while Chinese Spirit also makes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Rosemay 2nd Royal Duchess 3rd Roaring Forties

CLEARANCE was bought by Iain Jardine after winning a selling hurdle in decent style at Stratford nine days ago. The son of Authorized could have more to offer now returning to the Flat, after scoring twice on the all-weather earlier in the year, and could get the better of Hugoigo, who has placed on his last two visits here. Irish raider Black Label is another for the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Clearance 2nd Hugoigo 3rd Black Label
