UK Horse Racing Tips: Fakenham

BOOBOROWIE's last appearance over timber saw him winning at Leicester in December 2018 and the seven-year-old is able to run off the same mark in a contest lacking much depth. Sellingallthetime was dropped 6lb for his handicap debut effort at Wincanton and could step forward after a wind operation, while Ted Bach's third at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve gives him a chance.
Prediction : 1st Booborowie 2nd Sellingallthetime 3rd Ted Bach

GREANETEEN has progressed nicely in two starts over fences, following up his win at Ascot with an authoritative display at Musselburgh, and, despite having to give his main rival Champagne Mystery 5lb, the six-year-old is expected to maintain his unbeaten record over the larger obstacles. Champagne Mystery has also improved for going chasing, jumping well on debut at Aintree, while Eskendash possesses ability but looks set to play a minor role.
Prediction : 1st Greaneteen 2nd Champagne Mystery 3rd Eskendash

FIX SUN made it two in a row since joining Nicky Henderson when scoring in good style at Market Rasen last month and bids to make it a fourth win in the contest for the Seven Barrows handler since 2012. Fraternel shaped as though he needed his first run in 12 months when fifth at Plumpton and is respected along with Book Of Invasions, a winner at Huntingdon two starts ago.
Prediction : 1st Fix Sun 2nd Fraternel 3rd Book Of Invasions

This could be between last-time-out winners Rizzardo and POOKIE PEKAN, with marginal preference for the latter to strike given his preference for soft ground. An 8lb rise for Stuart Coltherd's charge could have been worse, and he is taken to score. Senior Citizen displayed signs of encouragement when second on his chase debut at Doncaster last time out and is also fancied to be involved.
Prediction : 1st Pookie Pekan 2nd Rizzardo 3rd Senior Citizen

DUNDRUM WOOD looked a little one-paced when an odds-on second at Market Rasen in October, but he shaped much better over a couple of furlongs further at the same track in victory a month later and could double his career tally under Rules. This test of stamina should play into the six-year-old's hands, and he can prove too strong for the in-form Penny Mallow, who was successful in bumper company on this card 12 months ago. Nifty At Fifty can prove best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Dundrum Wood 2nd Penny Mallow 3rd Nifty At Fifty

SHANTOU FLYER chased home Hazel Hill in the Foxhunters at last year's Cheltenham Festival and was having his first start since when landing a point-to-point contest last month. He's entitled to come on for that outing and has a strong chance on these terms. Haymount is respected at the weights and is the one expected to put up most resistance. Llancillo Lord is no forlorn hope for a place, while Kashmir Peak would have strong claims if taking his chance, though he was due to run at Leicester on Thursday.
Prediction : 1st Shantou Flyer 2nd Haymount 3rd Llancillo Lord

Nicky Henderson's SCARPIA shaped with an abundance of promise when runner-up on debut at Warwick on New Year's Eve and is entitled to come on for that outing and find the improvement needed to score. Fantastikas makes some appeal on his debut second at Southwell in December and has viable place claims, while any money for newcomers African Dance and Flibinight would be worth heeding.
Prediction : 1st Scarpia 2nd African Dance 3rd Fantastikas
