UK Horse Racing Tips: Perth

It's extremely hard to look past ENKI FLACKE, who is three from three at this venue and has won his last couple of hurdle starts by an aggregate total of 17 lengths. He is sure to be all the rage here and should prove too good for Toucan Sam, who was 37 lengths behind the favourite on his penultimate start but improved massively when third over C&D last time. Iain Jardine's 1m2f Flat scorer Simple Star could prove best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Enki Flacke 2nd Toucan Sam 3rd Simple Star

Hermann Clermont steps up markedly in trip after finishing second over 2m here last time and he warrants respect, while Castletown has been running consistently well and shouldn't be too far away either. However, FISTON DU MOU receives plenty of weight from all of his rivals and is the sole C&D scorer in the field, so he gets the nod. He built on that track-and-trip success when runner-up at Hexham last time and another bold bid beckons.
Prediction : 1st Fiston Du Mou 2nd Hermann Clermont 3rd Castletown

Keepthefaithinme was a decisive winner over this C&D last month, but could be set for a struggle off top weight. Therefore, preference is for GONFALONIER, who has gone up 12lb for a 12-length success at this course on his most recent outing. Given he kept on so strongly during that contest, the weight hike may not be too tough for him to handle. Newtown Boy is another to note up in trip.
Prediction : 1st Gonfalonier 2nd Keepthefaithinme 3rd Newtown Boy

Planned Paradise seemed to relish slightly softer ground on his most recent outing, and won decisively by three and a quarter lengths at Worcester over this trip. This could be quicker than he'd like, so preference is for FLOATING ROCK. The seven-year-old justified market support to win stylishly at Hexham last month, and the fact he was eased towards the finish makes him look primed for a stiffer stamina test. Quantum Realm is also feared.
Prediction : 1st Floating Rock 2nd Planned Paradise 3rd Quantum Realm

LUCKY FLIGHT arrives in search of a hat-trick of victories, having scored here in comfortable fashion on his most recent start, and a 6lb rise may not be enough to stop Lucinda Russell's gelding from progressing further. Fearless benefited from a drop back in trip at Aintree last month and he is capable of another decent showing, while the return to chasing is likely to see Miss Amelia enter calculations.
Prediction : 1st Lucky Flight 2nd Fearless 3rd Miss Amelia

GLEN AVA arrives in excellent form having won her last couple of starts, both coming over C&D, and the six-year-old appears capable of further improvement in a contest that lacks much depth on paper. No Fixed Charges was runner-up at Market Rasen at the beginning of last month and he commands respect along with Tartan Cookie, whose recent third at Kelso gives him solid credentials.
Prediction : 1st Glen Ava 2nd No Fixed Charges 3rd Tartan Cookie

COPPER FOX got off the mark at the third time of asking at Uttoxeter last month and the five-year-old makes plenty of appeal with his attentions now switched to handicap company. Maifalki has placed twice in maiden company this season and is open to improvement in this sphere, while Derracrin could step forward from his fifth at Hexham when returning from a small break.
Prediction : 1st Copper Fox 2nd Maifalki 3rd Derracrin
