UK Horse Racing Tips: Southwell

GLITTERING CHOICE produced her best effort for a while when runner-up at Newcastle at the start of the month. She seemed to benefit from a first-time visor and with the headgear retained, the daughter of Havana Gold could have more to offer. Capparis arrives having won two of her last three outings and is likely to make her presence felt again, while Jubilee Girl appears best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Glittering Choice 2nd Capparis 3rd Jubilee Girl

ANIF has been running consistently well over the past couple of months, finishing third on his four outings since a C&D triumph, and his most recent effort, which came in a higher grade, suggests the nine-year-old could get his head in front on this occasion. May Night has returned to form this year and another bold bid is expected. Others for the shortlist include Perfect Swiss and Chola Empire.
Prediction : 1st Anif 2nd May Night 3rd Perfect Swiss

KING'S GEM was runner-up on his handicap debut here on Wednesday and the extra furlong might yield the improvement required that would potentially see the son of Kingman go one better. Evolicatt arrives in decent form having placed on her most recent efforts in handicap company and she is capable of another decent showing along with Acai, who sports blinkers for the first time.
Prediction : 1st Kings Gem 2nd Evolicatt 3rd Acai

Justcallmepete merits respect following back-to-back C&D victories, although a 5lb penalty for the most recent of those wins will make his life tougher. With that in mind, preference is for SPIRIT OF NGURU, who finished second over 7f here last time and the drop in trip could help him to go one better. Others to note are Tyger Bay and Adeb.
Prediction : 1st Spirit Of Nguru 2nd Justcallmepete 3rd Tyger Bay

JUST A SPARK displayed plenty of promise when finishing fourth on her introduction over this distance at Wolverhampton recently and Rod Millman's filly could be hard to beat with the benefit of that experience under her belt. Lady Nagin is another who brings solid form to the table, while any market support for newcomers Winter Melody and Mma Ramotswe would have to be noted.
Prediction : 1st Just A Spark 2nd Lady Nagin 3rd Winter Melody

In a moderate event, marginal preference is for PADDY K, who was not beaten far over C&D earlier in the week and a reproduction of that level of form would give him a big chance here. The return to 6f should help Gorgeous General and he should not be discounted, while Danah Star and Company Minx are others who could go well.
Prediction : 1st Paddy K 2nd Gorgeous General 3rd Danah Star
