UK Horse Racing Tips: Newmarket

In a field comprising several maidens, racecourse experience could work in the favour of METAHORSE, who arrives following a promising third at Chester over 6f earlier this month. He looks bred to appreciate this shorter trip and should come on for his debut experience, so rates a leading player. Rogue Lightning catches the eye for Tom Clover and Jack Mitchell given his dam was rarely far away at this distance, while Gareeb is another not to be discounted on his racecourse debut.
Prediction : 1st Metahorse 2nd Rogue Lightning 3rd Gareeb

EIGHT OF DIAMONDS was unlucky to lose out by a head on his latest outing at Carlisle over 1m3f. The Ulysses gelding kept on well during that run, so it seems a step up in trip will suit and the application of cheekpieces could spark additional enthusiasm in him. Vaynor should not be underestimated having won last time over 1m6f, but he could need further to thrive. Another to note is Jalea Moon, having gone up 1lb for a promising second-placed run at Leicester recently.
Prediction : 1st Eight Of Diamonds 2nd Vaynor 3rd Jalea Moon

DEVASTE showed plenty of promise when finishing two and three-quarter lengths behind Harry Three (now rated 107) in a competitive handicap at York earlier this month and that run suggests he may be better than a mark of 81. He takes a drop down in class from that and the reopposing Lethal Levi (fourth) will have to do more to turn that form around. Leap Abroad seems a threat having made all to win over this distance in April.
Prediction : 1st Devaste 2nd Lethal Levi 3rd Leap Abroad

Although SEA TSARINA has to concede 7lb to the whole field, she went into many notebooks when comfortably accounting for a more experienced rival on debut at Yarmouth and seems sure to improve for that outing. The Roger Varain-trained Asraabb was a beaten favourite at Wolverhampton last time but is respected now making her turf debut. Next Chapter makes her seasonal reappearance after being slowly away on debut, she looks sure to have learnt from that and this extra furlong should also suit.
Prediction : 1st Sea Tsarina 2nd Asraabb 3rd Next Chapter

The unexposed DEODAR has been given an opening mark of 95 for his handicap debut which looks appealing. The Bated Breath gelding went off at prohibitive odds at Doncaster last month and although he may not have won by a huge margin, he was always doing enough and there should be more to come. Lord Rapscallion was last seen chasing Bowman home at Epsom earlier in the month but is still looking for his first win since August 2020. Dream Show bounced back to form when dead-heating with Hebrides at Newbury and gets all the allowances here.
Prediction : 1st Deodar 2nd Dream Show 3rd Lord Rapscallion

Enforced got off the mark at Brighton by a neck and although he seems likely to improve after just his third start, he may struggle to cope with ROXZOFF. The three-year-old has hit a top two spot on his last seven outings and is due to go up 4lb for future races, so connections are looking to strike now off his more favourable mark. Recurrent Dream is interesting on his better Irish form and is another to consider seriously.
Prediction : 1st Roxzoff 2nd Enforced 3rd Recurrent Dream

If the rains fall in time then a better effort is expected from Dereham, who won over further at Pontefract in April, but that cannot be guaranteed and CALVINIST seems the more logical option. Third at Wetherby despite a slow start and failing to get a clear run, this smaller field may see him to better effect. Didtheyleaveuoutto has come third on both starts this season and may also mount a serious challenge.
Prediction : 1st Calvinist 2nd Dereham 3rd Didtheyleaveuoutto
