UK Horse Racing Tips: Bangor-on-Dee

Tile Tapper was last seen winning over fences in February and he merits respect, but has more on his plate after being hit with a 9lb rise. YGGDRASIL finished a fair third on his return last month, over a trip arguably short of his best, and this C&D winner could return to winning ways. Five Star Getaway, Knight In Dubai and Nelson River are all of interest dropped in class.
Prediction : 1st Yggdrasil 2nd Five Star Getaway 3rd Knight In Dubai

FOUND ON arrives here with the highest rating after recording a fifth-successive win over fences at Cheltenham last month and this is a good opportunity for the mare to notch yet another win. Faith Du Val created a good impression when winning on her chase debut at Sligo in September and may give the selection most to think about, ahead of the chasing debutant Galia Des Liteaux.
Prediction : 1st Found On 2nd Faith Du Val 3rd Galia Des Liteaux

Whoshotthesheriff is entitled to come on for last month's seasonal debut second at Wetherby and he is only 2lb higher in the handicap than when scoring at Carlisle in March. However, LE MILOS is an intriguing runner on his first appearance for the Dan Skelton yard and he remains unexposed. Ask Me Early was progressive prior to unseating at Wincanton and merits consideration, along with C&D winner Notachance.
Prediction : 1st Le Milos 2nd Whoshotthesheriff 3rd Ask Me Early

A chance can be taken with the Richard Hobson-trained OUR FOLLET on his racecourse bow. A half-brother to the talented Fou Et Sage, a Listed winner over hurdles in France, he certainly makes a lot of appeal on paper and merits the utmost respect this afternoon. Ghyll Manor is closely related to plenty of winners on the Flat and is feared most ahead of Javert Allen.
Prediction : 1st Our Follet 2nd Ghyll Manor 3rd Javert Allen

Hunters Call was just denied victory by a nose on his most recent start over 2m4f at Uttoxeter in April and has a good record fresh, but this 12-year-old could find a couple too good off top-weight. With that in mind, preference is for the unbeaten LADY ADARE, who was last seen bolting up at Taunton over 2m3f in February. It would be foolish to underestimate her on her return to action, while Bon Retour must also enter calculations.
Prediction : 1st Lady Adare 2nd Bon Retour 3rd Hunters Call

Ivar is worth considering on his debut on these shores, having shown promise in both of his starts over hurdles in France and, given that he represents an in-form yard, he needs to be monitored closely. Ramo has a similar profile and is also respected. However, preference is for HURLERONTHEDITCH, who was a good second over C&D on his hurdles debut last October and that experience could prove to be vital.
Prediction : 1st Hurlerontheditch 2nd Ivar 3rd Ramo

MAXIMILIAN won a point-to-point and two bumpers before making a successful debut over hurdles at Carlisle last month. He carries a 6lb penalty for that success this afternoon but is progressive and can cope with the extra burden. The highly-rated chaser Saint Palais looks the best alternative, while Merveillo, who won a Listed race on the Flat during his time in France, could also go well now switched to hurdles.
Prediction : 1st Maximilian 2nd Saint Palais 3rd Merveillo
