UK Horse Racing Tips: Taunton

CAN'T BEAT HISTORY improved when upped to this sort of trip at Doncaster, going down by just a head, and he should be hard to beat with another step forward. Modreeney runs for a trainer riding the crest of a wave after a couple of high-profile winners over the last fortnight, and he is a key player having proved his well-being with a good effort at Ffos Las. Mammies Boy has scope and completes the shortlist alongside Lost History, who is respected on debut for a new yard.
Prediction : 1st Cant Beat History 2nd Modreeney 3rd Mammies Boy

Joe Tizzard's horses have generally been performing with credit since the turn of the year and a chance is taken that his well-bred newcomer VENTARA knows enough about what is required of him to score at the first time of asking. The five-year-old, who cost 52,000 euros, is out of a half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser Battlecry and appears to have been placed to good effect. Course bumper winner Final Encore is interesting on his hurdles debut, while Matterhorn returns after wind surgery and is another appealing option.
Prediction : 1st Ventara 2nd Final Encore 3rd Matterhorn

SHIROCCO'S DREAM impressed when she jumped with accuracy and zest to make a successful chasing debut at Huntingdon. The eight-year-old was well supported in the betting that day and again looks the most striking option on these terms. Whatsdastory is experienced over fences and is respected as a threat, despite conceding 4lb to the selection. Lady Kk might improve in first-time cheekpieces, while Good Look Charm has had wind surgery.
Prediction : 1st Shiroccos Dream 2nd Whatsdastory 3rd Lady Kk

Although he was a beaten favourite over 2m4f at Sedgefield last week, MULLINAREE has filled the runner-up spot on both appearances since entering the handicap ranks and is fancied to shed the maiden tag at the eighth time of asking. The Bold Thady finished a distant second at Exeter but is still feared, while Fancy Your Chances also warrants a market check.
Prediction : 1st Mullinaree 2nd The Bold Thady 3rd Fancy Your Chances

WICK GREEN kept on well to regain the winning thread at Ffos Las on his first start for Ben Pauling and he looks more than capable of delivering another bold showing here. He has gone up 5lb, but Peter Mason negates that with his 7lb claim so the 10-year-old could still be fairly treated. Camulus sports first-time blinkers following a decent third over 2m5f at Fakenham and is feared ahead of Imperial Joe.
Prediction : 1st Wick Green 2nd Camulus 3rd Imperial Joe

Annie K bolted up in an Irish point-to-point in November, since when she has changed hands for 170,000 pounds, and must enter calculations for the champion trainer. However, ACT OF AUTHORITY lost little in defeat when finishing a good second at Musselburgh in January and can shed his maiden tag at the second time of asking. Flat-bred newcomer Light Sentence could be the one chasing them home.
Prediction : 1st Act Of Authority 2nd Annie K 3rd Light Sentence
