UK Horse Racing Tips: Fairyhouse

CHARLIE STOUT picked up the silver medal over an extended 2m6f at Galway last month and could take closer order now cutting back to 2m. Debuchet failed to stay 3m at Fairyhouse in April and is similarly expected to benefit from this drop back in trip, while the improving An Fraoch Mor struck over this trip at Wexford in March and is another expected to make his presence felt.
Prediction : 1st Charlie Stout 2nd Debuchet 3rd An Fraoch Mor

WAKE UP EARLY kept on well in the finish when fourth over the extended 2m6f at Galway last time and could improve for this step up in trip. Doran The Legend landed his first race under Rules at Sligo latest and remains open to improvement, despite an 11lb rise. Others to consider are Ask Cory and Enduring Love, who was all out to win on similar ground here off 6lb lower last week.
Prediction : 1st Wake Up Early 2nd Doran The Legend 3rd Enduring Love

ANNAMIX has always had a tall reputation and, without setting the world alight, there was much to like about his two performances last season. He beat a subsequent 12-length scorer on his latest outing over 2m at Clonmel and likely to improve for stretching out in distance, there should be plenty more to come from him this term. Gordon Elliott's pair, Definite Plan and Camden Village, also arrive in winning form and both warrant respect.
Prediction : 1st Annamix 2nd Definite Plan 3rd Camden Village

THE VERY MAN, a point-to-point winner and bumper scorer at Navan, was bang in contention on his hurdles debut at Punchestown last month when he fell at the last. Providing that mishap hasn't left a mark, Gordon Elliott's charge should open his account this time. Unexcepted hasn't been seen since finishing third at Auteuil in October 2017 and is of interest debuting for Willie Mullins, while Jason The Militant completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st The Very Man 2nd Unexcepted 3rd Jason The Militant

CONCERTISTA was beaten in a photo on her debut for Willie Mullins in the Grade 2 Mares' Novice Hurdle at Cheltenham in March and is fancied to build on that impressive first outing for the Closutton maestro. The five-year-old travelled powerfully that day and clearly has a bright future for a handler who thrives with such types. Telmesomethinggirl won between the flags in February and warrants a market check, while similar sentiments apply to Earthiest Words.
Prediction : 1st Concertista 2nd Telmesomethinggirl 3rd Earthiest Words

This looks a good opening for LOVELY CARRIG, who wasn't beaten far here off 3lb lower last week and, on that evidence, should improve for going up in distance. Theophilus outran a big price over track and trip on the same card and must enter calculations, while Sporty Yankee has dropped to an attractive mark and Each Way is unexposed in handicap company. The latter had shaped with some promise before coming to grief at the last at Wexford.
Prediction : 1st Lovely Carrig 2nd Theophilus 3rd Sporty Yankee
