UK Horse Racing Tips: Southwell

A case can be made for several of these, including Arzaak, who filled the runner-up spot over C&D on his most recent start earlier this month. However, THE TRON was denied by a fairly narrow margin, also over C&D last Thursday, but this was a much-improved effort based on what he had shown in handicap company on his penultimate outing. Blackcurrent can also bounce back from his latest outing and completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st The Tron 2nd Arzaak 3rd Blackcurrent

Rose King made a pleasing start to his racing career when scoring over 6f at this track earlier this month, but SUGAR HILL BABE has filled the runner-up spot on her last five outings and is fancied to shed the maiden tag here. She only finished a length behind the winner over this trip at Newcastle earlier this month and is capable of being thereabouts. The unraced Lady Gazelle appeals most of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Sugar Hill Babe 2nd Rose King 3rd Lady Gazelle

Moon Over The Sea was a comfortable winner over this trip at Kempton on his latest outing earlier this month and remains of interest now back in handicap company. However, DEFENCE TREATY secured a much-improved second here last time, despite suffering interference inside the final furlong, and can bounce back to winning form here. Young Winston was only narrowly denied when finishing third at Wolverhampton on his latest outing and is another worthy of consideration.
Prediction : 1st Defence Treaty 2nd Moon Over The Sea 3rd Young Winston

This looks an intriguing contest, where the vote goes for MIGHTY RIVER, who has been raised 3lb for being beaten a length at Wolverhampton last time and James Tate's colt warrants plenty of respect. French Invasion is unbeaten so far and has to be of considerable interest making his handicap debut Another to note is Ramensky, who won nicely in first-time blinkers on his latest outing at Wolverhampton, when appreciating a step up in trip, and could take another step forward from that run to be in contention.
Prediction : 1st Mighty River 2nd French Invasion 3rd Ramensky

Plastic Paddy renews rivalry with Chief's Will (second) from last time at Newcastle and he is fancied to confirm that form, even though he is 3lb worse off at the weights on this occasion. However, the vote goes to TROPEZ POWER, who was beaten under a length in a race that has thrown out two subsequent winners since at Lingfield and he has only been raised 2lb for that effort. Another to note in this contest is Alexander James, who takes a drop in class.
Prediction : 1st Tropez Power 2nd Plastic Paddy 3rd Alexander James

AL SUIL EILE has been knocking on the door on his most recent efforts and the seven-year-old is fancied to notch up his fourth win at this track. Breezyandbright won't make that easy for the selection, though, having won over C&D on his penultimate start off a 5lb lower mark. Others to consider are last-time-out winner Brave Display and Galileo Glass.
Prediction : 1st Al Suil Eile 2nd Breezyandbright 3rd Brave Display

In an open event, a chance is taken on HILARY'S BOY. Les Eyre's gelding hasn't been at his best in recent starts, but he is just 1lb higher than when successful over C&D in November and the addition of first-time cheekpieces could eke out further improvement. Giselles Izzy and Elisheva have been consistent and both are likely to be on the premises, along with Della Mare, who faces a slightly easier assignment.
Prediction : 1st Hilarys Boy 2nd Giselles Izzy 3rd Elisheva

My Boy Jack (winner) and Billian (second) are closely matched on their meeting at Wolverhampton on Friday, but, though both are likely to feature, STALLONE edges the vote. Michael Dods' charge is yet to win on the all-weather, but the gelding has run several good races in defeat and a sliding handicap mark ought to further aid his chance. Others to note include Deputise and You Are My World.
Prediction : 1st Stallone 2nd My Boy Jack 3rd Billian
