UK Horse Racing Tips: Exeter

MISTY WHISKY won a Listed bumper against her own sex last term and was sent off favourite on her seasonal/hurdles bow at Market Rasen, finishing a respectable runner-up. Harry Fry's charge should be all the wiser for the experience gained that day and is taken to get the better of penalised Leicester scorer Eleanor Bob and Feuille De Chene, a talented French import who is having her second run for Philip Hobbs.
Prediction : 1st Misty Whisky 2nd Feuille De Chene 3rd Eleanor Bob

LOSSIEMOUTH kept on strongly in the finish when landing the silver medal over the extended 2m4f at Ayr last time and promises to be suited by this stiffer test. Exod'ela steps up from 2m3f after playing a supporting role at Hereford and is another for whom this longer distance is expected to unlock immediate improvement. The pick of the remainder may be Unwin Vc, who notched one of his two bumper victories at this venue last year.
Prediction : 1st Lossiemouth 2nd Exodela 3rd Unwin Vc

MIDNIGHT TUNE jumped her rivals into the ground when scoring by 32 lengths over 3m at Uttoxeter last time and if she proves as effective over this shorter trip there is every chance she could make all in this small field. Dame du Soir has an absence to overcome and point winner Sea Destination has struggled on her two previous outings under Rules. The main danger could thus be Harry Fry's chase debutant Outofthisworld.
Prediction : 1st Midnight Tune 2nd Outofthisworld 3rd Dame du Soir

DOSTAL PHIL got better as the last season went along, finishing his campaign with a commanding victory over course and distance. This looks the ideal starting point for this term and he can make a successful return to the handicap ranks for a team with a good record at this venue. The Crooner won a apprentice handicap at Leicester last week and could prove dangerous off the same mark from the foot of the weights, escaping a penalty for that victory. Chasing looks to be put on the back burner once again for Storm Home, who is interesting following wind surgery.
Prediction : 1st Dostal Phil 2nd The Crooner 3rd Storm Home

Course-and-distance winner KIWI MYTH made a winning reappearance at Fontwell and wasn't disgraced off a similar rating when third at Plumpton 17 days ago. The seven-year-old might be the answer if in the same form today and could battle this out with Fontwell runner-up Bellamy's Grey, who now steps up in trip in first-time cheekpieces off only a 2lb higher mark. The return of Richard Johnson aboard Dont Be Robin has to be noted, while stablemate Sustainable Star may offer some each-way value.
Prediction : 1st Kiwi Myth 2nd Bellamys Grey 3rd Dont Be Robin

JOHNBB has gone up 6lb for scoring over fences at the second attempt at Sandown earlier in the month, and the gut feeling is that won't be enough to prevent him taking this contest as well. Representing a shrewd handler, the five-year-old won comfortably a fortnight ago and it could be significant that Robbie Power keeps the ride. Eceparti is 2-2 over the larger obstacles and is respected with ground conditions in his favour, while Just Don't Ask should also go well.
Prediction : 1st Johnbb 2nd Eceparti 3rd Just Dont Ask

A winner over the extended 2m7f here in the spring, URTHEONETHATIWANT scored on his seasonal reappearance at Ludlow last month and still looks well treated off this revised mark of 101. Sissinghurst is two wins from three starts in a tongue-tie and is interesting reverting to timber on the back of a 488-day absence, as he's gone well fresh in the past. Avithos completes the shortlist and could be one for the each-way player.
Prediction : 1st Urtheonethatiwant 2nd Sissinghurst 3rd Avithos
