UK Horse Racing Tips: Wincanton

LADY ADARE has yet to taste defeat in four appearances under Rules and her opening mark doesn't look beyond her on this handicap debut. Rose Of Arcadia may give the selection most to think about after landing the odds at Chepstow 11 days ago and has race fitness on her side. C&D winner Sabrina made an encouraging comeback when second at Newton Abbot last month and should remain competitive off 2lb higher, with Wynn House another to consider on her seasonal debut.
Prediction : 1st Lady Adare 2nd Rose Of Arcadia 3rd Sabrina

MCFABULOUS is an exciting recruit to fences for the Paul Nicholls yard and was last seen winning a Grade 2 hurdle at Sandown in April. He was the best of these over timber and could take high rank in this season's novice chase division. Uhtred should appreciate this return to a right-handed course, but Sebastopol beat Victorias Peak to a Listed prize at Chepstow and is a bigger threat. Hang In There needs to bounce back, but shouldn't be discounted if the going remains quick.
Prediction : 1st McFabulous 2nd Sebastopol 3rd Hang In There

The handicapper has cut FRODON some slack by dropping him 6lb after finishing midfield in the Ultima at the Cheltenham Festival. Paul Nicholls' grand servant was originally being prepped for Down Royal in an attempt to retain his Grade 1 title so it's likely he'll be ready to roll here, with a wind procedure also expected to aid his cause. Lord Accord should remain competitive after a 5lb rise for winning at Cheltenham, with Cap Du Nord and Neville's Cross expected to improve upon their recent returns.
Prediction : 1st Frodon 2nd Lord Accord 3rd Cap Du Nord

It is hard to look past HUGOS NEW HORSE, who made a pleasing return to action when a good second at Chepstow last month. He was headed approaching the final obstacle and a bigger emphasis on speed here should be to his advantage. In contrast, Trolley Boy could need a stiffer stamina test, despite having scored over 2m at Worcester in July, although he is still a threat. Ilanz completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Hugos New Horse 2nd Trolley Boy 3rd Ilanz

KNAPPERS HILL is backed to extend his winning sequence to four, with confidence boosted by his Silver Trophy victory at Chepstow last month. Knight Salute landed three Grade 2 contests, as well as claiming Grade 1 honours at Aintree, as a juvenile and lost little in defeat behind Pied Piper on his Cheltenham comeback. Sceau Royal bolted up in Listed company on his Kempton return and can also have a say in proceedings as he attempts to collect this prize for the fourth time.
Prediction : 1st Knappers Hill 2nd Knight Salute 3rd Sceau Royal

Despite unseating four out on his latest outing at Market Rasen, DE BARLEY BASKET appeals as the safest option in this line-up, having won five of his 10 starts over fences. The nine-year-old could still be well treated off a mark of 125 and he should have too much pace for course winners Butterwick Brook and Jony Max, who are at their best over much further.
Prediction : 1st De Barley Basket 2nd Butterwick Brook 3rd Jony Max

This can go the way of SIX AND OUT, who was narrowly denied by a subsequent winer when runner-up on his debut at Ludlow in April. With improvement expected, he may have too much for the likes of Kick Up A Storm, who comes from a stable that has won this contest in the past, and Tara Line, who impressed when winning an Irish point-to-point. Big Jim Beam and Whynotnowroy can also have a say in proceedings.
Prediction : 1st Six And Out 2nd Kick Up A Storm 3rd Big Jim Beam
