UK Horse Racing Tips: Ayr

A wide-open nursery to kick things off, but GREYCIOUS ANNA is a progressive, unexposed filly and she overturned an 83-rated rival at Redcar last time, with that pair pulling eight lengths clear of the third. If Karl Burke's filly takes another step forward, she might be able to complete the double. Misty Blues arrives following two solid placed efforts in class 2 handicaps and she warrants respect with her sights lowered, while Caernarfon and Claretina are others to keep an eye on.
Prediction : 1st Greycious Anna 2nd Misty Blues 3rd Caernarfon

In a field comprising several likely contenders, a chance can be taken with the John Quinn-trained JM JUNGLE. The son of Bungle Inthejungle bounced right back to form on his latest outing at Hamilton and looks open to further improvement at the same level. Reward Smile makes his handicap debut after going close at Carlisle last month. He must be feared, while Braveheart Boy also merits consideration.
Prediction : 1st Jm Jungle 2nd Reward Smile 3rd Braveheart Boy

BOLT ACTION can count himself slightly unfortunate to have bumped into some smart rivals in recent starts, with a four-length defeat at the hands of Little Big Bear the pick of those. However, he's still improving and, if taking another step forward, he could gain a deserved success at this level. Kerindia has been competing in a higher grade and she must be taken seriously with her sights lowered. Looking For Lynda and New Definition boast consistent profiles and both are capable of being involved, along with Prince Of Pillo, who was far from disgraced in the Flying Childers last weekend.
Prediction : 1st Bolt Action 2nd Kerindia 3rd Looking For Lynda

It was a career-best effort that GALE FORCE MAYA put up when winning at York last time and, if she's in anything like the same form, she should take all of the beating despite having to give weight to all of her rivals. Barbanera and Tenaya Canyon did well to finish fifth and sixth in the Beverley Bullet last time and they are fancied to fill the frame, while you can also make a good case for Naas fourth My Eyes Adore You.
Prediction : 1st Gale Force Maya 2nd Barbanera 3rd Tenaya Canyon

In a typically wide-open renewal of this contest, the tentative vote goes to previous C&D winner BELTANE. Keith Dalglish's three-year-old lost a race in the stewards' room here in July on his second start following wind surgery, but that solidified his liking for the track and the lightly-raced gelding could have more to offer. Music Society won this in 2019 and looks more than capable of another bold bid along with Admirality, who has similarly gone well at this meeting in the past. Monsieur Kodi has been in good form this season and would have a chance if putting a below-par effort at Windsor behind him, while Beattie Is Back and Grantley Hall are others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Beltane 2nd Music Society 3rd Admirality

TEMPER TRAP has won on four occasions in recent months and the five-year-old is expected to bounce back from his latest performance in the Leger Legends race at Doncaster. Flylikeaneagle has been a model of consistency since joining Lucinda Russell and another bold bid is likely, with the drop back in trip no issue for him. Ayr Poet, a winner at Hamilton on his latest start, is capable of a decent showing, along with Do I Dream.
Prediction : 1st Temper Trap 2nd Flylikeaneagle 3rd Ayr Poet

Alpine Sierra was just denied on his most recent run at Musselburgh in June and can make his presence felt here, but ALBEGREY could use a drop in trip to help him regain the winning thread. He remains 4lb above his Ripon win in May, which came over this distance, but is capable of progressing further. Another not to take lightly is Ha Long Bay over a shorter test.
Prediction : 1st Albegrey 2nd Alpine Sierra 3rd Ha Long Bay

Last year's winner ECLIPSE DE LUNAR returns off a 10lb lower mark and having produced a solid effort at Wolverhampton last month, he looks set to mount a bold bid in first-time blinkers. The ultra-consistent Gift Of Raaj must have a good chance despite the burden of top weight, but the main danger to the selection is Mister Camacho, who has been knocking hard on the door in recent outings.
Prediction : 1st Eclipse De Lunar 2nd Mister Camacho 3rd Gift Of Raaj
