UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

Legal Rights has proven to be a versatile customer and, despite failing to fire in gruelling conditions at Sandown last time out, the five-year-old rates a big player. He still has something to prove over this trip, however, and preference goes to SHOT BOII, who showed a willing attitude to land the spoils over C&D earlier this month. The David Pipe-trained gelding rallied late on to deny a strong challenger and it would be no surprise if he recorded successive wins off 4lb higher. Kilganer Queen is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Shot Boii 2nd Legal Rights 3rd Kilganer Queen

COOLVALLA relished the switch to fences when brushing aside Echo Watt (second) on his first outing over the larger obstacles at Fontwell last time out. A 10lb rise may not be insurmountable for the unexposed six-year-old and he gets the nod to continue his ascendancy. Galtee Mountain was never on terms on seasonal reappearance at Worcester last month but he must be respected and Bobmahley can follow them home.
Prediction : 1st Coolvalla 2nd Galtee Mountain 3rd Bobmahley

In this competitive contest it may pay dividends to side with GUGUSS COLLONGES, who has been a consistent customer this year. The Roger Teal-trained six-year-old gave a good account when runner-up on seasonal reappearance at Stratford and he can go one better off 1lb higher. Although Bolberry Down was a distant third at Fontwell on his latest outing, he shaped as if a step up in trip could suit and rates the most immediate danger. Delgany Monarch is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Guguss Collonges 2nd Bolberry Down 3rd Delgany Monarch

HOT ROD LINCOLN was far-from disgraced when fourth on his hurdling bow at Chepstow, and the son of Westerner could take a significant step forward with that experience under his belt. High Game Royal shaped with promise on his first start for the Philip Hobbs team and could be capable of better, along with Embolden, who hit the crossbar at Market Rasen earlier this month.
Prediction : 1st Hot Rod Lincoln 2nd High Game Royal 3rd Embolden

SHELDON left his hurdles form behind when successful on his chase debut last month, though a subsequent fall at Hereford would have to temper enthusiasm slightly. However, if Seamus Mullins' charge is able to bounce back, he looks sure to have further improvement in him. Mucho Mas was narrowly denied on his chasing bow at Bangor and must feature prominently in calculations from a 2lb higher mark. Burrows Park was in good form when last seen and is of interest on his seasonal reappearance.
Prediction : 1st Sheldon 2nd Mucho Mas 3rd Burrows Park

Mistral Lady kept on well for third behind a smart prospect over 2m at Plumpton last month and, with the step up in trip sure to suit, the daughter of Shirocco makes plenty of appeal. However, preference is for TIME FOR HOLLIE, who displayed ability in a handful of slow-ground bumpers last season. With conditions likely to be similar on her return to action, she could make a winning hurdles debut. Jasmiwa is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Time For Hollie 2nd Mistral Lady 3rd Jasmiwa

Walk In The Wild recorded a comfortable success at this venue last time out and he should remain competitive if coping with the forecast ground conditions. Uberman must enter the reckoning too, but SHAW'S CROSS edges the vote. Paul Henderson's 10-year-old finished a good second over hurdles on his seasonal reappearance and he's fancied to go one better now back over the larger obstacles.
Prediction : 1st Shaws Cross 2nd Walk In The Wild 3rd Uberman
