UK Horse Racing Tips: Market Rasen

All three runners come into this on the back of maiden hurdle successes. Sure Touch is the highest rated on official figures and won by nine lengths in his maiden at Newton Abbot, but it might be worth taking him on with BELVEDERE BLAST. Although not well treated on official figures, the four-year-old bolted up at Hexham last time and could have more to offer after just three starts over timber. Let Me Be was much classier than the selection on the level and won well over this C&D last time.
Prediction : 1st Belvedere Blast 2nd Let Me Be 3rd Sure Touch

Jersey Wonder was beaten a length into second by Galileo Silver at Ffos Las last time, but he could gain his revenge off 2lb higher, though it's hard to oppose ASK PADDINGTON here, despite his lack of experience over this trip. Rebecca Menzies' gelding has raced only once over staying trips, finishing second at Musselburgh, but his form has gone to another level since then as he made it three wins on the bounce when too strong for his rivals over shorter here. Warwick winner Apache Creek is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Ask Paddington 2nd Jersey Wonder 3rd Galileo Silver

County Antrim handler Gerald Quinn has already had a couple of successful forays to these shores with CIRQUE ROYAL and a hat-trick could be on the cards. A winner of a Perth maiden and a Kelso novice hurdle, he had a subsequent winner behind last time and could be well treated off a mark of 123. Galata Bridge won easily at Huntingdon last time and may be capable of another big run despite being 12lb higher, while Gaelik Coast is interesting despite a 6lb hike for his Worcester win.
Prediction : 1st Cirque Royal 2nd Galata Bridge 3rd Gaelik Coast

Mortlach merits the utmost respect having won four times in recent months and a 6lb rise for the most recent of those wins appears to be fair. That said, preference is for MANOFTHEMOUNTAIN, who bounced back to form on his first start since a wind operation when finishing second at Uttoxeter last time. The nine-year-old may have more improvement left to come and remains on a workable mark. La Domaniale is unexposed over fences and has to be of some interest, while Francky Du Berlais is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Manofthemountain 2nd Mortlach 3rd La Domaniale

HANG IN THERE has won two similar contests in impressive fashion in recent months and the son of Yeats should be hard to stop in his bid for a hat-trick. Carys' Commodity won a match race at Stratford last time but he was beaten by the selection prior to that and even a 4lb swing in the weights may not be enough to reverse that form. Stoner's Choice edges out Shetland Bus to be the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Hang In There 2nd Carys Commodity 3rd Stoners Choice

GETAWAY JEWEL won with any amount in hand over this C&D last time and a 10lb hike for that easy success might still not be enough to stop him. Go As You Please has been given some respite from the handicapper and is 4lb lower than his last winning mark, while Any Givin Sunday struggled on his chasing debut but could be better for it.
Prediction : 1st Getaway Jewel 2nd Go As You Please 3rd Any Givin Sunday

Kayfast Warrior won well enough at Perth last time, but that was taking advantage of a falling mark and he's 3lb higher in this, while Karannelle has a 7lb penalty for his win at Newton Abbot but is actually 9lb higher as he'd already been given a 2lb rise for his second at Warwick. Slight preference is for NEBUCHADNEZZAR, who displayed plenty of bottle when overcoming an awkward leap late on at Wincanton, before showing a distinct lack of fizz at Stratford last time. The switch to hurdles could be the answer for Ann Duffield's charge.
Prediction : 1st Nebuchadnezzar 2nd Kayfast Warrior 3rd Karannelle
