UK Horse Racing Tips: Leicester

TAVUS only found one too good when bidding for a hat-trick at Chelmsford last month and could bounce back here, with a return to turf and 1m4f in his favour. Pour Me A Drink went close at Newbury last month and is interesting stepping up in distance, while Mick Channon's Earl Of Harrow made it three victories from four at Lingfield in August and can't be ignored with Andrea Atzeni returning to the saddle.
Prediction : 1st Tavus 2nd Pour Me A Drink 3rd Earl Of Harrow

BONNEVILLE made the podium at Chepstow last month and he could be the answer if able to build on that and handle the tricky underfoot conditions. Max Guevara ran well when encountering cut in the ground at Bath earlier in the season and is interesting in first-time blinkers, while Little Tipple shaped nicely enough in two outings here in July to suggest he could surprise in a first-time tongue-tie.
Prediction : 1st Bonneville 2nd Max Guevara 3rd Little Tipple

TARBOOSH built on some useful efforts to get on the scoresheet at Beverley a fortnight ago and having enjoyed soft ground on that occasion, shouldn't have too many issues tackling similar conditions here. Archer's Dream has been pitched into some hot contests since thriving in the early stages of his career and could find this easier, while Copper Knight's best would put him right in the mix at the finish.
Prediction : 1st Tarboosh 2nd Archers Dream 3rd Copper Knight

Course-and-distance winner SPIRIT RIDGE enjoyed the drop back to this trip when second at Newmarket last time and the Nathaniel gelding could build on that first outing in 110 days to land the spoils here. Spanish Archer wasn't beaten too far when looking for back-to-back victories at Haydock last month and is respected, with Getchagetchagetcha foolish to ignore in first-time cheekpieces. Clive Cox's three-year-old hasn't been disgraced in some hot contests since winning over track and trip in June and makes plenty of appeal.
Prediction : 1st Spirit Ridge 2nd Spanish Archer 3rd Getchagetchagetcha

KARISOKE has posted two solid efforts in class 4 company and this slight drop in grade could see him make it third-time lucky. Revolutionary Man is entitled to improve for his comeback fifth at Lingfield, which was his first outing for Mark Loughnane, and rates the biggest threat, with Sommer Katze worth a market check ahead of his debut.
Prediction : 1st Karisoke 2nd Revolutionary Man 3rd Sommer Katze

Forecast testing conditions should be ideal for QUIRKY GERTIE, who went down by a head on heavy ground at Hamilton last time, and she looks capable of giving weight and a beating to these rivals. Elzaam's Dream brings winning C&D form to the table and was touched off at Ffos Las when last sighted. Her and recent Chelmsford scorer Miss Liberty Belle top the list of dangers.
Prediction : 1st Quirky Gertie 2nd Elzaams Dream 3rd Miss Liberty Belle

Michael Appleby saddled the winner of this contest 12 months ago and he appears to have another cracking chance with EPONINA this time around. The past course winner only gave way inside the final furlong over 1m at Thirsk latest and looks sure to play a leading role now dropped in both trip and class. Stallone takes an even steeper drop in grade and will benefit from Sean Kirrane's claim, while Brighton runner-up Ecstasea also holds claims.
Prediction : 1st Eponina 2nd Stallone 3rd Ecstasea

ANOTHER BOY ploughed through the mud to score over this trip at Salisbury latest. He's off a 3lb higher mark now and Charlotte Bennett can only claim 5lb, rather than the 7lb she took off last time, but another bold bid beckons. Jean Valjean has been knocking on the door and is likely to be in the shake-up again, while Cotubanama might improve for the fitting of a visor.
Prediction : 1st Another Boy 2nd Jean Valjean 3rd Cotubanama
