UK Horse Racing Tips: Perth

AL MUFFRIH shaped on his latest outing when runner-up at Newton Abbot as though he would benefit from stepping up in distance and this could be the ideal opportunity for the seven-year-old to gain a first victory over timber. Petite Rhapsody has been a model of consistency in recent months and he is capable of a decent showing, along with handicap debutant Lone Star.
Prediction : 1st Al Muffrih 2nd Petite Rhapsody 3rd Lone Star

GETAMAN produced his best effort to date over fences when runner-up at Stratford on his latest outing and the nine-year-old has been found a suitable opportunity to shed the maiden tag under Rules. Rock On Tommy didn't run too badly when fifth at Uttoxeter in a contest where most of the fences were missed out due to the low sun, while First Angel's recent third at Southwell gives him every chance of being in the mix.
Prediction : 1st Getaman 2nd Rock On Tommy 3rd First Angel

LAKE SHORE DRIVE was just denied on his most recent start at Worcester when beaten a neck and the 10-year-old, who has been in fine fettle over the past couple of months, is taken to get his head back in front. Emirat De Catana returned to form when second over C&D last month and he commands respect along with Get Phar, who improved for stepping back up in trip when third at Southwell.
Prediction : 1st Lake Shore Drive 2nd Emirat De Catana 3rd Get Phar

AND THE NEW was not beaten far into third in a similar contest over 2m here recently and the 11-year-old could be hard to beat off a 2lb lower mark this afternoon. Everybreathyoutake has been off the track for a year now but he should not be underestimated on his return to action, while Old Town Garde edges out Big Difference to be the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st And The New 2nd Everybreathyoutake 3rd Old Town Garde

BRITZKA was highly-tried as a juvenile hurdler last season and Gordon Elliott's gelding merits plenty of respect in a race of this nature, especially as he may improve for the application of first-time cheekpieces. Lady Babs is 1lb out of the handicap but she has to be of some interest given that she has been knocking hard on the door of late. Malangen won over 2m4f here two starts ago and is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Britzka 2nd Lady Babs 3rd Malangen

Rose Dobbin appears to have found an ideal opportunity for GET WITH IT to get off the mark. The seven-year-old has been given a 5lb rise for his recent runner-up effort over C&D last month, where he travelled like the winner for most of the race only to be headed on the run-in, and another bold bid is expected. Brian Hughes in an interesting jockey booking for the Laura Morgan-trained Seemingly So, who looks sure to appreciate this step back up in trip, while local trainer Lucinda Russell always has to be respected here and Izzy's Champion looks to be back on a winnable mark.
Prediction : 1st Get With It 2nd Seemingly So 3rd Izzys Champion

In receipt of weight all round, SAY YOU SAY ME gets the vote here having shaped well when runner-up at Worcester on debut. Gordon Elliott and Sean Bowen have formed a good partnership on these shores recently and their strike-rate may well increase here. The biggest threat is likely to come from the Laura Morgan-trained Illusion Of Time, who won at Stratford on his racecourse debut and it would be no surprise to see him follow up here. Any market support the for the newcomer Invictus World should be taken seriously.
Prediction : 1st Say You Say Me 2nd Illusion Of Time 3rd Invictus World
