UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

RIVER DAWN, a winner over this distance at Brighton, was less than two lengths away from back-to-back victories when second over a mile at Kempton and the drop back to 7f could suit Paul Cole's three-year-old, who must go close off the same rating. Global Hope was runner-up over 6f at the Sunbury circuit and steps up in trip off the same mark. Broughtons Flare was sent off favourite when last seen and is expected to be popular once again.
Prediction : 1st River Dawn 2nd Global Hope 3rd Broughtons Flare

HOLY ELEANOR shaped with real promise when sent off favourite on her first outing for Archie Watson at Wolverhampton and could build on that off a 1lb lower mark. Burniston Rocks was another to prove popular when last seen and is expected to be on the premises here if repeating that useful Kempton run. Rebel Redemption, stepping up in trip, and nursery debutant Barking Mad are others to keep an eye on.
Prediction : 1st Holy Eleanor 2nd Burniston Rocks 3rd Barking Mad

Sir Titan hasn't been seen since scoring at Newmarket in September, but the five-year-old commands plenty of respect off a workable rating. However, it may be worth siding with the useful all-weather performer BABY STEPS, who made the podium off this figure at Wolverhampton on Saturday. Captain Jameson relished the soft ground at the end of the turf season and is respected, while track-and-trip winner Pride Of Angels can't be ruled out either, despite her lengthy absence.
Prediction : 1st Baby Steps 2nd Captain Jameson 3rd Sir Titan

MUSTARRID stormed five lengths clear of his nearest pursuer when scoring over an extended mile at Nottingham and can make light work of a 10lb higher rating now stepping up to 10 furlongs. Mythical Madness is proven over this trip and could surprise on his first outing for Simon Dow, while C&D winner Kasbaan is yet to run a bad race since joining Mick Appleby and is feared along with the extremely capable duo Kuwait Currency and Victory Bond.
Prediction : 1st Mustarrid 2nd Kasbaan 3rd Kuwait Currency

BANTA BAY registered his second career victory at Kempton in October when benefiting from the return to 1m4f and a 4lb rise doesn't appear too harsh for John Best's gelding. Be Fair placed on his handicap debut at Southwell and is entitled to improve from that effort on his second outing for Tony Carroll, while Wolverhampton winner Mrs Ivy is capable of further progression as well.
Prediction : 1st Banta Bay 2nd Be Fair 3rd Mrs Ivy

LATE ROMANCE boasts a smart pedigree, by Dubawi out of an Irish St Leger winner, and cost 500,000gns at Tattersalls Book 1 last October. She represents a trainer who certainly knows how to ready one first time and gets the nod over Asbaagh, a 450,000gns purchase at Book 2, and Tacitly, who shaped with promise on her debut at Kempton last month.
Prediction : 1st Late Romance 2nd Asbaagh 3rd Tacitly

YASIR has been mostly consistent over the past couple of months and the booking of top amateur Serena Brotherton could see the 11-year-old get his head back in front. Capricorn Prince can step forward for the application of first-time blinkers on his return to handicap company, while Earthly has pieces of form that would entitle him to a place on the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Yasir 2nd Capricorn Prince 3rd Earthly
