UK Horse Racing Tips: Newbury

Alfie Solomons has been competitive off higher marks on the all-weather this year and appears fairly treated on this switch back to turf, though of more interest is GLOBAL HOPE, who shaped encouragingly over 7f at Yarmouth last week and is entitled to strip fitter for that outing. The selection could benefit from this drop in distance and has Oisin Murphy booked. Our Oystercatcher makes most appeal of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Global Hope 2nd Alfie Solomons 3rd Our Oystercatcher

AL DAWODIYA was beaten by less than a length over this trip at Kempton in December, which was her first start over 6f. There could be further improvement in the pipeline, especially since she's making her handicap bow this afternoon. Tambourine Girl improved with each outing last year and also appears on a fair mark, though the main danger may be Rodin, a Southwell maiden winner in February who represents an in-form stable.
Prediction : 1st Al Dawodiya 2nd Rodin 3rd Tambourine Girl

STYLISTIQUE sets the clear form standard on her Group 2 second in the Rockfel and should take plenty of beating in she's trained on and performs to a similar level this afternoon. African Dream has improved in between runs on the all-weather for John Gosden and is nominated as the main danger, while Exhibit, who struck at Chelmsford in November, also seems to be going to the right way and commands respect. Lady Andaz and Lamorna are newcomers to monitor in the betting.
Prediction : 1st Stylistique 2nd African Dream 3rd Exhibit

TENFOLD should be all the wiser for the experience gained over 1m on debut at York in October and might improve for this stiffer test. Choral Work is similarly expected to come on for her debut spin at HQ and expected to take closer order, though the main dangers may be lurking among the newcomers and any money for Andrew Balding's Uganda Heights or Worthily, who is closely related to Lucarno, would be particularly notable.
Prediction : 1st Tenfold 2nd Worthily 3rd Uganda Heights

GOLD WAND showed a great deal of promise on her racecourse debut at Doncaster when only finding leading Oaks fancy Domino Darling too strong for her. That contest has worked out to be a strong piece of form with the third, fifth and sixth all subsequent winners, and Roger Varian's filly promises to be suited by the step up in trip. Portrush has to enter calculations being a half-sister to star mare Enable, while Flower Of Scotland, a daughter of Group 1 winner Seal Of Approval, and Waldfabel are others who warrant a market check on their first starts.
Prediction : 1st Gold Wand 2nd Portrush 3rd Flower Of Scotland

INVOLVED was only beaten narrowly on his first outing for George Boughey at Newmarket last week and connections attempt to take advantage off this mark before being reassessed by the handicapper. Tell William is potentially open to improvement for the step up in trip based on his last couple of starts at Bath, while Champs De Reves is respected having built up a good rapport with Megan Nicholls.
Prediction : 1st Involved 2nd Tell William 3rd Champs De Reves
