UK Horse Racing Tips: Exeter

Garincha ran on well over a furlong further on heavy ground to win on his debut over fences, though this may represent a different test. King Turgeon is an interesting French import and an opening mark of 110 may turn out to be generous, but a chance is taken on MARCO ISLAND. Three starts to date have produced two wins at Chepstow for the six-year-old and he could make his mark in this sphere.
Prediction : 1st Marco Island 2nd King Turgeon 3rd Garincha

Jeremy Scott won this last season and is represented this time around by ANNIE MAGIC, a nine-length winner at Wincanton last month on only her second start over hurdle. She is hard to oppose and may be able to give weight to Whisky Express, who could do better in first-time cheekpieces and is dropped in class. Marsh Wren may be the likeliest to chase them home.
Prediction : 1st Annie Magic 2nd Whisky Express 3rd Marsh Wren

HUGOS NEW HORSE sets a good standard to aim at having landed a handicap at Sandown last month and, with Freddie Gingell taking a handy 7lb off his back, he's difficult to oppose. Buckhorn Rocco attained a midfield finish in a Listed Ascot bumper when last seen and must be of interest ahead of his hurdling bow, while Sassified looks the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Hugos New Horse 2nd Buckhorn Rocco 3rd Sassified

COPSHILL LAD beat a subsequent hurdles winner when successful in a Stratford bumper and Milton Harris' five-year-old appeals as the type to progress now tackling hurdles for the first time. How Will I Know shaped with promise over an extended 2m here last month and he looks likely to improve up in trip. Lime Avenue retains potential but she needs to bounce back having been a beaten favourite at Wincanton on her latest outing.
Prediction : 1st Copshill Lad 2nd How Will I Know 3rd Lime Avenue

Party Fuzz opened his account over the larger obstacles when successful at Hereford in November and he's respected from an 8lb higher mark, but LADY KK edges the vote. Jeremy Scott's charge was no match for a ready winner on her seasonal reappearance but, from an unchanged mark, the unexposed chaser could go one better. Raddon Top rattled off a course hat-trick over hurdles last year and he must be of interest ahead on his fencing bow.
Prediction : 1st Lady Kk 2nd Party Fuzz 3rd Raddon Top

MAGNIFICENT BEN went down narrowly at Lingfield last month and a 4lb rise for that career-best effort may not be enough to stop him from going one better here. Bebraveforglory would hold strong claims on his penultimate effort when successful at Stratford, while Calvinist is another to note. Completing the shortlist are the likes of Ambion Hill, Imperial Joe and Just Go For It.
Prediction : 1st Magnificent Ben 2nd Bebraveforglory 3rd Calvinist

WRAPPEDUPINMAY arrives here with a lofty reputation, having bolted up in a point-to-point at Dromohane in April. Now in the hands of Paul Nicholls, the half-brother to the Listed-winning hurdler Mrs Hyde can strike on his Rules debut. Bar Thyme is open to improvement after taking part in a strong bumper at Ascot on debut, while Grumpy Rosie is a half-sister to Mayhem Mya, who won on debut herself.
Prediction : 1st Wrappedupinmay 2nd Grumpy Rosie 3rd Bar Thyme
