UK Horse Racing Tips: Plumpton

Shot Boii is sure to prove popular after finishing fourth when on a four-timer at Ffos Las last month and the David Pipe inmate isn't taken lightly. CROSSING THE BAR, however, appeared to be travelling well when brought down at Doncaster recently and if none the worse for that mishap, he could gain a first success of the season. Handicap debutant Dame Prestige makes most appeal of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Crossing The Bar 2nd Shot Boii 3rd Dame Prestige

HERITIER produced a solid performance on his return to chasing when third at Hereford and holds leading claims under useful conditional Toby Wynne, whose 5lb allowance could make all the difference. Dom Of Mary should have learned plenty from his first completed start over fences at Ludlow and is feared most, although C&D winners Fairway Freddy and En Coeur are others to note now that they drop in trip.
Prediction : 1st Heritier 2nd Dom Of Mary 3rd Fairway Freddy

KLITSCHKO offered plenty of encouragement when second in a good race at Newbury on New Year's Eve and in what looks a less competitive contest, Alan King's five-year-old will take all the beating. Mardoof has posted creditable efforts in defeat at Wincanton and Uttoxeter and looks the main danger. Diamond Egg and Jack The Savage are the most interesting of the hurdling debutants and they can fight it out for the minor honours.
Prediction : 1st Klitschko 2nd Mardoof 3rd Diamond Egg

It wasn't to be for Tap Tap Boom, who unseated his rider at Leicester in December when going in search of a hat-trick. A return to form isn't out of the question granted a clean round of jumping, but it's difficult to oppose the progressive GLOIRE D'ATHON, who beat a couple of subsequent winners at Sandown on his latest outing, and a 3lb rise for that victory could prove lenient. Sheldon might not be far away either.
Prediction : 1st Gloire DAthon 2nd Tap Tap Boom 3rd Sheldon

Thirtyfourstitches was pulled up at Fakenham on New Year's Day having repelled the challenge of Le Patron over C&D a couple of weeks earlier, and he might struggle to confirm that form on the revised terms. That said, a chance is taken on PRINCE IMPERIAL. The gelded son of Frankel achieved a peak rating of 96 when trained on the Flat, and his two runs over timber have offered encouragement of a future in this sphere. Kotmask is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Prince Imperial 2nd Le Patron 3rd Kotmask

WELL VICKY shrugged off a quick turnaround when supplementing her Hereford success with a Bangor win on Friday and although she must saddle a double penalty, Alastair Ralph's mare could still be ahead of the handicapper. Paddy's Fancy looks fairly treated from an opening mark of 100, with Toby Wynne's 5lb claim further aiding her chances. Citizen Jane hasn't kicked on from a promising debut effort, but she must be of interest on her handicap bow.
Prediction : 1st Well Vicky 2nd Paddys Fancy 3rd Citizen Jane
