UK Horse Racing Tips: Wincanton

EMMPRESSIVE LADY likes a good test of stamina and she looks the pick of the trio set to face the starter. The forecast going should ideally suit the Sue Gardner-trained mare and she is is a strong fancy to follow up after her wide-margin success off 3lb lower in a similar race at Bangor last month. Wouldubewell has faced stiffer tests recently but today's ease in grade can see her in a better light, while Shirocco's Dream has a bit to prove back up in trip.
Prediction : 1st Emmpressive Lady 2nd Wouldubewell 3rd Shiroccos Dream

Following a C&D success, CASPERS COURT proved his mettle when he ran away with a class 5 handicap hurdle at Exeter 26 days ago and he could be hard to peg back again despite a 7lb higher mark. This is a deeper race as Cluain Aodha arrives in good form and has to be respected, but Good News is of more interest dropping back in trip and he may be the main threat to the selection.
Prediction : 1st Caspers Court 2nd Good News 3rd Cluain Aodha

Doubts can be cast over all of these for one reason or another and, with that in mind, it might be worth chancing that HARD FROST can cope with a 4lb higher mark which was dished out after his near-miss at Market Rasen last month. The gelding handled an extended 2m5f well enough when he posted another good second at Fontwell three starts back, which bodes well for today's test. Begin The Luck and Ithaka look the pick of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Hard Frost 2nd Begin The Luck 3rd Ithaka

BOOM BOOM has struggled so far over hurdles and failed to complete when last seen at Chepstow. That said, the five-year-old could still play a leading role in a race of this nature if putting in a clear round of jumping. Dylan's Double remains unexposed and is likely to be in the mix, while Queens Fortune and Gun Runner Cash are the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Boom Boom 2nd Dylans Double 3rd Queens Fortune

In a moderate event it is hard to oppose GALLOPADE, who has improved with every start over hurdles and the form of his narrow defeat at Ludlow a couple of weeks ago puts him well clear here. Diamond Egg was well held when third at Newbury last time but may improve for a first-time tongue-tie. West End Boy and Royal Max are others who merit a place on the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Gallopade 2nd Diamond Egg 3rd West End Boy

LADY ADARE may have disappointed on her return at Taunton in January but she remains a talented mare, who was unbeaten before that. She can bounce back to winning ways for her in-form connections, while Amelia's Dance and Petticoat Lucy are capable of being in the shake-up as well. The former is feared most on the basis that she was beaten less than a length into second off this mark at Taunton three starts ago.
Prediction : 1st Lady Adare 2nd Amelias Dance 3rd Petticoat Lucy

LAZY SUNDAY is in the form of her life at present and a 9lb rise for an easy win at Ffos Las may not be enough to stop the nine-year-old bringing up the four-timer. Mongol Emperor appeals as her main danger, having bounced back to form with a decisive success at Doncaster last month. Dreaming Blue and Triple Trade are entitled to be thereabouts too.
Prediction : 1st Lazy Sunday 2nd Mongol Emperor 3rd Dreaming Blue
