UK Horse Racing Tips: Redcar

SIMULATION THEORY took a run to find his feet for Declan Carroll but made no mistake at the second time of asking for the Malton trainer, striking at Carlisle last week. Connections may be wise to get him out again under a penalty and he can thwart the hat-trick ambitions of Bold Territories, who has been progressing well on the all-weather. Royal Prospect is better than he showed most recently, while Russian Virtue and Old News have to be considered too.
Prediction : 1st Simulation Theory 2nd Bold Territories 3rd Royal Prospect

THANKUAPPRECIATE is getting better with racing and justified favouritism with the minimum of fuss at Ripon, with Jaxta back in fourth. He showed plenty of pace so shouldn't be inconvenienced by this first try at the minimum trip. Lady Jane Grey appears the biggest threat after backing up her debut Lingfield success with a solid third at the same venue, although Dark Crusade took a big step forward on his second outing and is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Thankuappreciate 2nd Lady Jane Grey 3rd Dark Crusade

HELLO DEIRA has been turned over at a short price at both Salisbury and Ascot, but there has still been plenty of merit in the performances and an initial mark of 80 could be well within range for Owen Burrows' Dewhurst entry. Glorious Goodwood winner Prairie Falcon will be happier back at 7f after his Newcastle third over a furlong shorter. Prince Nabeel went close on his nursery debut at Carlisle, with Indiana Be and Nightout handicap newcomers to consider this time.
Prediction : 1st Hello Deira 2nd Prairie Falcon 3rd Prince Nabeel

With Shine On Brendan disappointing just six days ago, he looks best watched for now, while fellow three-year-old WESTERN STARS really seemed to excel running in handicap company for the first time when winning nicely over 1m at Pontefract in June. A 5lb rise for that win doesn't look insurmountable and more improvement could be forthcoming now stepping up in trip. Rich King remains unexposed and still appears to be in good form, so he may give the selection most to think about.
Prediction : 1st Western Stars 2nd Rich King 3rd Shine On Brendan

A more aggressive ride saw Runninwild hold on well for victory at Thirsk last month and he's still open to progress, although a 5lb rise will make life tougher for him here. AS IF BY CHANCE was narrowly denied over today's C&D last time out, when a slow start hampered his chances and a 2lb rise shouldn't stop him going close once again. It Just Takes Time is sure to be popular given he's been in fine form, but another 5lb hike in the ratings puts him on a career-high mark and he needs to prove that he is still as effective now dropped in distance.
Prediction : 1st As If By Chance 2nd Runninwild 3rd It Just Takes Time

The majority of these have been given numerous opportunities to get off the mark so a chance can be given to the William Haggas-trained newcomer FANCIFUL. The daughter of Twilight Son has clearly taken some time to come to hand and any market support behind her would strengthen her claims. Noteable has gone close a few times already and the application of first-time cheekpieces could be a positive move. Proclivity (also engaged to run at Thirsk on Monday) wasn't beaten far at Southwell last month and this drop back in trip won't be an inconvenience.
Prediction : 1st Fanciful 2nd Proclivity 3rd Noteable

Aiden Brookes and DESERT QUEST built up a nice little partnership over the summer, winning at Ayr and more recently over C&D last month, with conditions to suit today, there appears to reason to suggest why they can't make it a three-timer. Purple Reign didn't appear to stay the two miles when he was strongly fancied at Ripon at fortnight ago and this drop in trip looks more suitable. Hidden Pearl has been running with credit all season and another big run is forecast.
Prediction : 1st Desert Quest 2nd Purple Reign 3rd Hidden Pearl
