UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

It is no surprise that ESTRELA STAR has won his last two starts, judged on his consistency since reverting to the all-weather in November, and the hat-trick beckons. Versatile in regards to trip, having won over this distance at Kempton before bolting up under a penalty over 1m6f at Chelmsford on Tuesday, the son of Casamento is difficult to get away from and should be up to beating the likes of Master Burbidge, who seldom runs badly, and Capricorn Prince.
Prediction : 1st Estrela Star 2nd Master Burbidge 3rd Capricorn Prince

PLANTADREAM built on an encouraging Chester debut when scoring readily at Kempton last month and he left a lasting impression that day. The five-year-old won going away over this trip, a performance which suggested he'd be capable of following up in novice company under a penalty. Emraan won well over C&D on his debut in December and should be thereabouts, but the main danger is Monya, who comes out well at the weights and can step up on her cramped-odds defeat at Newcastle now stretching back out in distance.
Prediction : 1st Plantadream 2nd Monya 3rd Emraan

A fiercely competitive event, in which BADRI shades the verdict. Charles Hills' handicap debutant is of the least exposed members of this line-up with only three runs under his belt and showed he liked it here when fairly bolting up in a 6f novice stakes contest last month. Bendy Spirit has been running consistently well and can figure prominently once more, while Phuket Power warrants respect following recent placed efforts at Kempton and over this C&D.
Prediction : 1st Badri 2nd Bendy Spirit 3rd Phuket Power

AMAZING NEWS stepped up on his promising debut performance when scoring readily over this trip at Wolverhampton and, with further improvement on the cards, he could give weight and a beating to these rivals. Makram struck the crossbar first time out at Kempton and is likely to show up well again, while the 73-rated Centurion Song is clearly a lot better than showing at Haydock when last sighted. He has been gelded since.
Prediction : 1st Amazing News 2nd Makram 3rd Centurion Song

BATTLE OF MARATHON arrives having won two of his last four starts, both of those successes coming over C&D, and John Ryan's gelding can take advantage of being able to run off the same mark having won an apprentice race last Saturday. Jamaican Jill won in good style at the track on her penultimate start and she appears the most solid threat to the selection, as Blowing Dixie's recent improvement has come on the Fibresand at Southwell.
Prediction : 1st Battle Of Marathon 2nd Jamaican Jill 3rd Blowing Dixie

ITS NICE TOBE NICE appeared to have benefited from wind surgery when doing all of her best work at the finish when fourth at Kempton on her handicap bow. She is entitled to build on that performance and is open to further improvement over this distance. Mistress Nellie scored on her latest outing at Kempton and can enter the reckoning off a 3lb higher mark, while others to note include King Athelstan and Enmeshing.
Prediction : 1st Its Nice Tobe Nice 2nd Mistress Nellie 3rd King Athelstan
