UK Horse Racing Tips: Chelmsford City

PREDICTABLE TULLY improved from her debut at Kempton when filling the runner-up spot at Newbury 58 days ago, as she attempted to put her experience to good use. The daughter of Kodiac remains open to further improvement and she can make it third-time lucky. Tadreej is better than her effort at Salisbury last month suggests, while Ramsha and Rideson boast decent pedigrees and hail from leading stables.
Prediction : 1st Predictable Tully 2nd Tadreej 3rd Ramsha

SIMPLY SUSAN didn't appear to stay 7f on her latest start at Brighton but her efforts prior to that had shown encouragement and the drop to 6f on her handicap bow could see her get off the mark at the fourth attempt. Two Hearts has been a model of consistency over the past couple of months and is likely to run his usual honest race, while Star Of St Louis and Red Hottie are both capable of improvement on their nursery debuts.
Prediction : 1st Simply Susan 2nd Two Hearts 3rd Star Of St Louis

A return to the all-weather can suit SOUTH COAST, who was second at Epsom last time and the Godolphin youngster could thrive over this extra yardage. Baptism was two and a half lengths back in third on that occasion and John Gosden's 460,000-euro Sea The Stars colt is likely to be close by in first-time cheekpieces. Mark Johnston's pair of Bondi Sands and debutant Douglas Fir can't be ignored, with Caledonian Crusade also respected.
Prediction : 1st South Coast 2nd Baptism 3rd Bondi Sands

VENTURA ROYAL romped to a five-length victory at Beverley last week and the four-year-old is backed to strike again while the iron is hot under a 5lb penalty, with Jamie Spencer booked in the saddle. Perfecimperfection built on some useful efforts to score over course and distance last time and makes plenty of appeal, while Sandown runner-up Angel's Whisper and Mick Channon's runaway Pontefract winner Air Force Amy are others of real interest in this competitive heat.
Prediction : 1st Ventura Royal 2nd Perfecimperfection 3rd Air Force Amy

ALRAJAA won by nine lengths eased down over 7f at Chepstow in a novice contest last month and is expected to remain competitive now stepped up in trip on his handicap debut. Michele Strogoff has picked up the silver medal on each of his last three visits to this venue over 7f to 1m2f and should go well again now tried over 1m. Andrew Balding's consistent three-year-old Strict Tempo makes most appeal of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Alrajaa 2nd Michele Strogoff 3rd Strict Tempo

Course-and-distance winner LETHAL ANGEL was far from disgraced when fifth in a higher grade at Newmarket last time and is expected to step up on that level of form now eased into 0-70 company. Awsaaf enjoyed a productive spell on the all-weather earlier this year and could bounce back from a disappointing turf effort at Bath last month. Others to bear in mind are recent Yarmouth second Great Shout and the well-drawn Desert Fox.
Prediction : 1st Lethal Angel 2nd Awsaaf 3rd Desert Fox

BROUGHTON EXCELS was an impressive winner over C&D last week and could be worth following again for Stuart Williams. A 5lb penalty makes life tougher, but his all-weather form figures for this yard read 1251 and there could be more to come. Royal Mezyan flashed home despite being forced wide on the bend here last month and could do better from a lower draw this time, while Frea, who was three and a half lengths behind the selection seven days ago, is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Broughton Excels 2nd Royal Mezyan 3rd Frea
