UK Horse Racing Tips: Market Rasen

FREE HANDSHAKE recorded a career-best effort when landing the spoils in convincing style at Cartmel in June. Despite returning from a lengthy absence, it would be no surprise to see the son of Zambezi Sun prove too classy for his rivals on stable debut. Let's Have Another has shown plenty of promise and rates the most immediate danger, while Chilinlikeavillain can follow him home.
Prediction : 1st Free Handshake 2nd Lets Have Another 3rd Chilinlikeavillain

In this competitive contest the marginal preference goes to ONTHEROUGE, who left a lasting impression in two bumpers last term and could be well up to striking on his debut over the smaller obstacles. Kracka Nut is another who should be primed for this, despite a 203-day absence, and he can provide the main threat, along with The Role Model, who is of interest on his first start for new connections.
Prediction : 1st Ontherouge 2nd Kracka Nut 3rd The Role Model

HARBOUR LAKE boasts an impressive record over obstacles and the Alan King-trained gelding can continue his ascendancy on seasonal reappearance. The six-year-old was entered in a Grade 1 contest at the end of last term and, despite being declared a non-runner, he can add another win to his tally at this lower level. Kihavah rates the most immediate danger stepping up in trip, while Big Bad Bear can follow them home.
Prediction : 1st Harbour Lake 2nd Kihavah 3rd Big Bad Bear

MASTER MALACHY failed to fire when a beaten odds-on favourite at Sedgefield last time, but he had been progressive prior to that and can be given another chance today. Dibble Decker is more than capable of going well in a race of this nature if ready to go after a 175-day break, while Snowy Clouds edges out Touchthesoul to be the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Master Malachy 2nd Dibble Decker 3rd Snowy Clouds

A case can be made for most of these but none more so than TAMAROC DU MATHAN, who won a valuable race when last seen at Plumpton in May. Off just 3lb higher today, the seven-year-old could take plenty of stopping. Killer Clown can be unpredictable but his more than capable of going well if at his best. Others to note are Kiltealy Briggs and Orrisdale.
Prediction : 1st Tamaroc Du Mathan 2nd Killer Clown 3rd Kiltealy Briggs

A winner over hurdles in May, ISLE OF ARON is fancied to make a winning reappearance. The Tim Vaughan-trained gelding was outpaced over 2m at Ffos Las on his chasing debut in April, but it would be no surprise were he to step forward now tackling a more suitable trip. Baby Ben must enter the reckoning for a yard who excel in these type of contests, while Von Melas finished a good third at Southwell last month and also merits consideration. Begoodtoyourself has shown a consistent level of form over fences and is entitled to be among the leading protagonists once more.
Prediction : 1st Isle Of Aron 2nd Baby Ben 3rd Von Melas

In what might prove an informative contest, the vote goes to NOTIMEFORANOTHER. The son of Time Test has some strong middle distance performers in his pedigree and with Keith Dalgleish calling on the assistance of champion jockey Brian Hughes, he could be primed to strike. There's a fair amount to like about the chances of Tedtwo on paper and he merits a place on the shortlist, ahead of Eagle Of The Glen.
Prediction : 1st Notimeforanother 2nd Tedtwo 3rd Eagle Of The Glen
