UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

HARRY BROWN appears to be going the right way on the evidence of his most recent C&D success a fortnight ago and he is likely to take another step forward, despite a 5lb rise to contend with. Snuggle clearly wasn't at his best at Ffos Las when last seen in July and is of interest following a gelding operation, while King's Gem is expected to be in the mix having filled the runner-up spot on both attempts in handicap company so far.
Prediction : 1st Harry Brown 2nd Snuggle 3rd Kings Gem

CARZOLA has clearly needed time to come to hand, having made her debut at Wolverhampton in October, and the daughter of Lope De Vega, who has shown promise on all three outings to date, is open to plenty of improvement in first-time blinkers on her handicap bow. Capricorn Prince commands respect with Ryan Moore booked and cheekpieces on, while others to note are Pablo Prince and Where's Tom.
Prediction : 1st Carzola 2nd Capricorn Prince 3rd Pablo Prince

FRENCH INVASION created a decent impression when making a winning start to his racing career at Kempton and Charlie Johnston's colt has been found a suitable opportunity to back that effort up under a penalty. Sax Appeal, a stable companion of the selection, got off the mark at the second attempt at Southwell and is feared most, while the application of a hood might yield improvement from Fox Vision.
Prediction : 1st French Invasion 2nd Sax Appeal 3rd Fox Vision

Bezzas Lad atoned for a narrow defeat at the hands of Libra Tiger when winning over C&D last month, but the latter might have his measure once more on revised terms. The booking of Ryan Moore aboard Hello Zabeel is noteworthy and the betting market ought to guide on his return from a break, but a chance is taken on MOUNT MOGAN. The Laura Mongan-trained gelding is now 9lb lower than when scoring here last January and, down in class with first-time cheekpieces applied, he could bounce back to form.
Prediction : 1st Mount Mogan 2nd Libra Tiger 3rd Hello Zabeel

SUMMERGHAND must concede weight to his rivals having landed a Listed contest over C&D in November, but David O'Meara's charge, who has been admirably consistent throughout his career, is fancied to follow up. Annaf is relatively unexposed and must firmly enter the reckoning following his success in a conditions race at Kempton. Exalted Angel and Vadream could be thereabouts, while Diligent Harry is no forlorn hope for all that he needs to better latest performances.
Prediction : 1st Summerghand 2nd Annaf 3rd Exalted Angel

SIR BUSKER and Tempus are best off at these weights and could dominate proceedings, with slight preference for the former, who was last seen running well behind the top-class Baaeed in Group 1 company at York 171 days ago. Tempus also ran at the top level when last sighted and he should be competitive in this lesser event, while recent Southwell scorer Lord Of The Lodge might prove next best.
Prediction : 1st Sir Busker 2nd Tempus 3rd Lord Of The Lodge

Although a career record of 0-18 is slightly worrying, EARLY MORNING DEW looked an unlucky loser on his stable debut for Jim and Suzi Best at Kempton 10 days ago and he could be worth chancing off a 3lb higher mark. One Step Beyond has struck the crossbar on his last couple of outings and is likely to be in the shake-up again, while Golden Dove also holds claims.
Prediction : 1st Early Morning Dew 2nd One Step Beyond 3rd Golden Dove
