UK Horse Racing Tips: Doncaster

Qaaddim finally got off the mark on the all-weather at Lingfield latest but is 3lb higher this time in a select but competitive heat. With that in mind, he could be worth taking on with BORSDANE WOOD, who is getting the hang of things now after two Southwell triumphs. The step up to 1m can ensure he remains a step ahead of the handicapper, while She's A Unicorn and Gold Souk are also open to further improvement.
Prediction : 1st Borsdane Wood 2nd Qaaddim 3rd Shes A Unicorn

LADY G makes plenty of appeal on breeding given she's by Golden Horn out of a Galileo mare. Representing William Haggas, it can be assumed that this filly will know her job on debut and it is highly likely that a newcomer will win this maiden because those boasting racecourse experience have hardly set the world alight. Fellow Golden Horn debutants Gold Wand and Domino Darling should also be considered, while Approximate and True Scarlet can have their say.
Prediction : 1st Lady G 2nd Gold Wand 3rd Approximate

William Haggas is 10-30 with two-year-olds at Doncaster in the last five years, and it would be no surprise to see the Yorkshireman strike again on Town Moor with Frankel colt BORN A KING. Related to plenty of winners and out of a dam who was useful in France, this looks to be a nice starting point. Nova Roma is out of a dam who placed in Group company as a two-year-old, while Magnetised is a half-brother to the likes of Qewy and Jordan Princess and could make an impact under Andrea Atzeni.
Prediction : 1st Born A King 2nd Nova Roma 3rd Magnetised

BIELSA lost his unbeaten record when down the field here in the Portland here last month but he can bounce back with the return to 6f in his favour, along with softer ground. Golden Apollo won the Ayr Silver Cup on his latest outing and can enter the reckoning along with recent Ascot scorer Pendleton, who rewarded connections after a string of decent efforts in defeat.
Prediction : 1st Bielsa 2nd Golden Apollo 3rd Pendleton

GINISTRELLI improved for the step up to 1m6f when scoring at Haydock and Ed Walker's son of Frankel remains unexposed tackling this distance for just the second time. Celestial Force has been a model of consistency for a number of months and must enter calculations, along with River Icon, who shaped when third over an extended 2m at York as though the drop back in trip would suit.
Prediction : 1st Ginistrelli 2nd Celestial Force 3rd River Icon

ALFRED BOUCHER saw his three-race winning run come to an end at Sandown last month, but he wasn't disgraced in that 1m contest and the Aussie Rules gelding could get back on track stepping up in trip off the same rating. Modakhar makes plenty of appeal on his handicap debut following a comfortable Hamilton victory last time, while Passion And Glory is worth another chance in this sphere despite disappointing at York. Only a length separated Sandret (first) and Storting (second) when they met over course and distance at the St Leger meeting and both are likely to be thereabouts again.
Prediction : 1st Alfred Boucher 2nd Modakhar 3rd Sandret

This could go the way of the hat-trick seeking GAMESTERS ICON, who romped to a seven-length victory at Bath last week and arrives 6lb well in under a 5lb penalty. Deinonychus is another seeking a three-timer following back-to-back wins in the Nottingham mud, with Serena Brotherton in the saddle increasing the eight-year-old's chances, while Luna Magic has been in fantastic form and must be taken seriously under a 5lb penalty for her recent Musselburgh triumph. Thomas Cranmer and Beverley winner Thorntoun Care are others with possibilities.
Prediction : 1st Gamesters Icon 2nd Luna Magic 3rd Deinonychus
