UK Horse Racing Tips: Warwick

CHARLES ST was knocking on the door in middle-distance handicaps on the level during the summer months and the son of Outstrip, who was bought for 50,000gns to join Fergal O'Brien, makes plenty of appeal. Victory appears to be the first string for Alan King, with Forward Flight having a bit to prove based on his most recent Flat performances, while any market support for Romancero Le Dun would make him of interest.
Prediction : 1st Charles St 2nd Victory 3rd Romancero Le Dun

ETALON shaped well on his first start when third in a Chepstow bumper in February and the five-year-old, whose half-brother is a useful performer for Jonjo O'Neill, gets the vote to make a winning start over timber. Egbert was just denied at Market Rasen on his second outing and he is expected to progress in this sphere. Everyonesgame and Crebilly appear best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Etalon 2nd Egbert 3rd Everyonesgame

The wheels fell off STAGE STAR in the spring after a promising start over hurdles, which included success at the highest level in the Challow. Pulled up at both Cheltenham and Aintree, he has reportedly schooled well over fences and appeals as the type who could rank highly in the UK division. That said, he does face stiff competition, with West Cork, winner of the Greatwood at Cheltenham last term, and Skytastic, who lost his unbeaten record at Aintree, both exciting recruits to chasing. It wouldn't be a surprise if Interne De Sivola stepped forward, despite his inferior hurdles rating.
Prediction : 1st Stage Star 2nd West Cork 3rd Skytastic

JARAMILLO was useful on the Flat but also showed promise in three starts over hurdles last season. This looks to be a good starting point for a fresh campaign and the mount of Tom Bellamy is a solid option on his handicap debut in this discipline. Moorland Rambler and Opening Bid might be dangerous, while Bahtiyar must not be underestimated on his first start since a wind operation.
Prediction : 1st Jaramillo 2nd Moorland Rambler 3rd Opening Bid

Guetapan Collonges hasn't always convinced with his jumping but nevertheless managed to win two of his five previous starts over fences. He's been given plenty of time to get over a heavy fall at Sedgefield and may be worthy of a saver if the betting vibes are positive. However, the concession of 5lb to chasing newcomer REILLY might be the undoing of the top-weight, and Dan Skelton's representative appeals more on these terms. He was a comfortable winner when last seen over hurdles and isn't overburdened for this switch to the larger obstacles. Fairlawn Flyer is unbeaten over fences so needs to be considered, despite an 11lb rise for his last victory.
Prediction : 1st Reilly 2nd Guetapan Collonges 3rd Fairlawn Flyer

A wind operation might initiate improvement from Horizon D'Ainay, while Dindin has a C&D win to his name and would be dangerous to ignore despite losing his way recently. Preference is for FAIRWAY FREDDY, a battle-hardened individual who has won a quarter of his 20 starts over fences. With further doubts about South Terrace after he was pulled up at Uttoxeter, and Thelasthighking lacking chasing experience under Rules, the selection has fewer questions to answer than most of the opposition. Hawthorn Cottage could be the main threat if she responds kindly to cheekpieces.
Prediction : 1st Fairway Freddy 2nd Hawthorn Cottage 3rd Horizon DAinay

STOWAWAY JESS kept on in good style to land the spoils on her racecourse debut at Southwell in April and it would be no surprise to see the daughter of Universal maintain her unbeaten record in this contest. Silent Approach is closely related to multiple bumper winners and the Olly Murphy-trained four-year-old demands plenty of consideration, while Spring Note also rates a fascinating newcomer.
Prediction : 1st Stowaway Jess 2nd Silent Approach 3rd Spring Note
