UK Horse Racing Tips: Sandown

This represents a drop in class for handicap debutant FAUSTINOVICK, who is having his second outing after wind surgery and might also appreciate cutting back in distance. Top conditional Jonjo O'Neill jr takes the ride and everything looks in place for him to run a big race. Jaisalmer and Jack Tudor teamed up to win at Warwick and the eight-year-old should remain competitive off 4lb higher. Flagrant Delitiep cannot be ruled out either.
Prediction : 1st Faustinovick 2nd Jaisalmer 3rd Flagrant Delitiep

BILLINGSLEY hasn't looked back since unseating his rider at Bangor, scoring at Hereford and Haydock, and a further 7lb rise might not be enough to stop him completing the hat-trick. Dorking Cock also chases three wins in a row after ploughing through testing conditions to prevail at Chepstow and Carlisle, and he is an obvious danger. Ballinslea Bridge can't be ruled out off the same mark as when third at Market Rasen.
Prediction : 1st Billingsley 2nd Dorking Cock 3rd Ballinslea Bridge

Deja Vue's two victories have come over 2m and after appearing not to get home over an extended 3m at Haydock, this drop back in trip looks the right move. Cill Anna and Desaray Girl are improving all the time and must enter calculations, but ROSIE AND MILLIE shades the verdict. Michael Scudamore's mare was hugely impressive when winning her maiden two starts ago and is 5lb better off with Desaray Girl for a neck defeat at Haydock. Conditions are in her favour and she ought to go very close.
Prediction : 1st Rosie And Millie 2nd Deja Vue 3rd Cill Anna

Rathlin Rose and Guy Disney have teamed up to win this twice, although they aren't helped by having to concede weight to some higher-rated opponents this time. CATAMARAN DU SEUIL has been edging closer and closer to the winner's enclosure, and his latest Leicester second suggested that he is back on a workable mark. Ozzy Thomas has a big chance now he reverts from timber, with Le Reve and Diger Daudaie also in the mix.
Prediction : 1st Catamaran Du Seuil 2nd Ozzy Thomas 3rd Le Reve

DANNY KIRWAN is clearly held in high regard judging by some of the company he has kept, with his bumper defeat of Pym back in February 2018 particularly eyecatching. He has been sidelined since chasing home Angels Breath in an Ascot Grade 2 14 months ago but remains a smart prospect. Faire Part Sivola almost supplemented his Leicester success when touched off at Wincanton and appears a bigger threat than Beaufort West, whose victories at Chepstow and Fontwell have left him with a welter burden.
Prediction : 1st Danny Kirwan 2nd Faire Part Sivola 3rd Beaufort West

HORATIO HORNBLOWER's hat-trick mission ended when he got rid of Chester Williams in the big veterans' final here, but he was still in contention and seems as well as ever at the age of 12. Alminar was third behind Nick Williams' charge at Ffos Las, but is better off at the weights despite winning at Chepstow subsequently. The handicapper appeared to have caught up with Christmas In April at Plumpton, although he can't be completely written off, nor can Potters Legend because there were excuses for his Haydock disappointment.
Prediction : 1st Horatio Hornblower 2nd Alminar 3rd Potters Legend

Ashfield Paddy has raised his game since going handicapping and found only one too strong when attempting to back up a Haydock triumph at Ascot. He may be vulnerable to a less exposed rival, though, and one that fits the bill is STEAL A MARCH. Nicky Henderson's five-year-old made hard work of landing the odds at Hereford but, as a result, his initial mark may underestimate him. Fellow handicap newcomers Brummie Boys, Lossiemouth and Storm Force Ben could also play their part, and Iconic Muddle and The Raven's Return aren't out of it either.
Prediction : 1st Steal A March 2nd Ashfield Paddy 3rd Brummie Boys
