UK Horse Racing Tips: Market Rasen

NOTRE PARI made a bad mistake at a crucial point when fourth on his return to action at Fakenham but Olly Murphy's gelding warrants plenty of respect back on a more conventional track. Perfect City was in contention when falling on his hurdling debut at Southwell in June and, on that showing, is entitled to be competitive, while Timetochill could take a step forward from her third at Huntingdon where she raced too keenly.
Prediction : 1st Notre Pari 2nd Perfect City 3rd Timetochill

WHO'S THE BOSS ran with credit on her debut for Stuart Edmunds when runner-up at Huntingdon last month and the daughter of Oscar can take the step forward required with the rise in trip in her favour. Velkera is entitled to improve from her C&D third 19 days ago, while Marilyn Monroe, a half-sister to the yard's Regal Encore and Listed winner The Organist, completes the shortlist on her hurdling bow.
Prediction : 1st Whos The Boss 2nd Velkera 3rd Marilyn Monroe

ATLANTA ABLAZE won twice in Listed company last season and was running an excellent race in the National Hunt Chase when falling at the second-last fence. Her subsequent performance at Perth can be forgiven and the daughter of Kayf Tara could bounce back on her return to action. The Bay Birch won on her first start of the season at Chepstow and she appears the most solid threat, while Annie Angel was twice a wide-margin winner at Uttoxeter in July and, on those efforts, is worth her chance up in class.
Prediction : 1st Atlanta Ablaze 2nd The Bay Birch 3rd Annie Angel

BIG DIFFERENCE has been found a good opening on his seasonal/chase debut and can pick up from where he left off here in March. Ben Pauling's charge won a handicap hurdle over a furlong shorter here in the spring off 106 and it could be that the switch to fences brings about a fair amount of improvement in the son of Presenting. Sojourn is unexposed over obstacles and brings winning bumper form to the table, so he heads the list of dangers from Ballyhome.
Prediction : 1st Big Difference 2nd Sojourn 3rd Ballyhome

OUR UNCLE PAT has taken his form to a new level since undergoing wind surgery and joining Olly Murphy. The eight-year-old remains winless, but this isn't a particularly strong handicap chase and the assumption is that a repeat of either of his efforts here or at Warwick in late summer will suffice. Tanrudy is interesting tried in a first-time visor, likewise Ask Paddy after a wind operation.
Prediction : 1st Our Uncle Pat 2nd Tanrudy 3rd Ask Paddy

Amzac Magic held on in determined fashion to get off the mark at Wincanton in the spring and is noted on his return, while chances are also given to Pride Of Lecale and Pagero. OXWICH BAY makes most appeal, though, as he should appreciate this drop in distance after a tired mistake at the last over 3m at Southwell latest saw him unseat his rider. He is well treated on the pick of his form.
Prediction : 1st Oxwich Bay 2nd Amzac Magic 3rd Pagero
