UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

ITWOULDBERUDENOTTO was thwarted by a neck over 1m at Southwell last time but pulled three lengths clear of the rest of the field. Richard Fahey's charge is unexposed over this longer trip and may be able to gain compensation, despite going up 4lb in the ratings. Cottonopolis and I Hear Thunder are potential improvers on their handicap debuts, while Manap could be perked up by the fitting of first-time blinkers.
Prediction : 1st Itwouldberudenotto 2nd Cottonopolis 3rd I Hear Thunder

GOLDEN FOUNTAIN is handicapped on his form over 6f to 7f but the half-brother to Kynren could feasibly take a notable step forward now upped in trip on his handicap bow. Today Power dented his own chance with a tardy start before making up plenty of ground mid-race at Kempton last time and could be on a fair mark at present. The pick of the remainder may be Abadie, who is having his second run for an in-form stable.
Prediction : 1st Golden Fountain 2nd Today Power 3rd Abadie

PETITE JACK recorded his eighth victory at this venue when landing a distance handicap last week and now eased into 0-95 company, he has strong claims of defying a 2lb rise under a rider who knows him and his quirks really well. Entangling was left with too much to do when finishing strongly from off the pace for third behind Furzig last month and is expected to reverse the form with that rival to emerge as the main danger to the selection.
Prediction : 1st Petite Jack 2nd Entangling 3rd Furzig

River Song opened her account at the second time of asking when getting the better of Made In Italy (second) and DROMARA KING (third) over C&D earlier in the month. However, the latter has every chance to reverse the form as a more positive ride on this occasion could make the difference. Stately Home is another to note based on his second in the first division of the aforementioned contest.
Prediction : 1st Dromara King 2nd River Song 3rd Stately Home

POWER LINK went close to gaining another success when a short-head second here over 7f earlier in the month and the step up to a mile for the first time in the UK could see further improvement from James Tate's gelding. Corazon Espinado has enjoyed a consistent spell of form over the past couple of months, placing on three of his last four starts, and he is respected along with Knighted, who had excuses when slipping on the bend at Ripon when last seen in May.
Prediction : 1st Power Link 2nd Corazon Espinado 3rd Knighted

Gazelle and Too Shy Shy are the pick of those with previous form but the level they set is not very high and a chance can be taken with NIGHT VOYAGER. The son of Dandy Man cost 42,000gns as a yearling and he is closely related to plenty of winners. Spirits High is another interesting newcomer, while any market support for Lily Like would have to be needed.
Prediction : 1st Night Voyager 2nd Gazelle 3rd Spirits High

PASSING NOD stayed on well to win over 6f here last week and a 4lb rise for that victory may not be enough to stop him from taking this race as well, especially as the step up in trip should suit. Full Speight has displayed promise in novice company and he merits respect on his handicap debut, while Leg It Lenny and Annie Quickstep complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Passing Nod 2nd Full Speight 3rd Annie Quickstep

KNOCKABOUT QUEEN made amends for her narrow defeat two starts ago by winning at Wolverhampton last time and she should take plenty of beating once again today. Perfect Symphony was successful over C&D a couple of weeks ago and he is an obvious threat to the selection, while The Groove and Kath's Lustre are others who could go well in an open contest.
Prediction : 1st Knockabout Queen 2nd Perfect Symphony 3rd The Groove
