UK Horse Racing Tips: Newmarket

SUPREME KING must hold every chance if building upon a narrow defeat on his handicap debut at Nottingham earlier in the month. Runner-up on three of his five starts as a two-year-old as well, Richard Hannon's charge has promised much and now looks as good a time as any to open his account. Comfortable Lingfield winner Burdett Road and the progressive Dionysian look best placed to chase him home, while Bussento, Lion Kingdom and Seductive Power are others to note.
Prediction : 1st Supreme King 2nd Burdett Road 3rd Dionysian

A progressive sort throughout last season, a chance is taken with APHELIOS on his return, having not been outside the first three in 12 career starts. The son of Kodiak has run well fresh before and he gets the vote ahead of Aleezdancer, who was impressive at Doncaster last time, as well as first-time gelding Leap Abroad. Spirit Of Light was an eye-catcher on his UK return at Musselburgh over further, while the veteran Mr Wagyu can never be ruled out in a contest of this nature.
Prediction : 1st Aphelios 2nd Aleezdancer 3rd Spirit Of Light

Jane Chapple-Hyam had a couple of talented sorts in her ranks last season, and BLANCHLAND looks like one to get excited about among the classic generation. A highly encouraging second in the Zetland Stakes when last seen here in October, the son of Farhh is 5lb clear of his closest rival Bold Act on ratings and he can prove just why. An entry in both the Guineas and the Derby, Canberra Legend made quite the impression on his debut at Newcastle, and he must enter calculations, along with Intinso, whose connections have an excellent record in this race.
Prediction : 1st Blanchland 2nd Bold Act 3rd Canberra Legend

Coppice made a pleasing start to her racing career when recording a comfortable success over this trip at Kempton in October. She is a full-sister to Group 2 winner Calyx and should not be underestimated, but FAIRY CROSS is narrowly preferred. A Group 3 winner over 7f at Goodwood last August, she has since finished a fair second over a mile at Meydan in February and may appreciate cutting back in trip. Girl Racer is stepping up in grade following an easy win at Wolverhampton on her racecourse bow last month, while Frankness also warrants a market check.
Prediction : 1st Fairy Cross 2nd Coppice 3rd Girl Racer

Dorothy Lawrence boasts an appealing pedigree, being a half-sister to several notable types including Italian Listed winner Festive Star, so she looks more than capable of having a say in proceedings on her racecourse bow. However, PERSIAN DREAMER was a 145,000-euro purchase as a yearling and her dam is a full-sister to Group 1 runner-up Tiger Moth. She can make a winning start to her racing career, while Specific Times adds further spice to the race.
Prediction : 1st Persian Dreamer 2nd Dorothy Lawrence 3rd Specific Times

It has come as no surprise to see Charlie Appleby hit the ground running this season. The locally-based trainer, who boasts a terrific strike-rate with his three-year-olds on the Rowley Mile, is fancied to enhance his already impressive record with SILVER LADY. By Sea The Stars and a half-sister to the classy Highland Avenue, the filly should hold all of the correct attributes in order to succeed on her debut. Ludmilla was only beaten a neck on her first start, which came here over 7f, and she can take a step forward with improvement likely. The powerful Shadwell operation are represented by Mubhijah and Rowayeh, of whom the former is preferred.
Prediction : 1st Silver Lady 2nd Ludmilla 3rd Mubhijah

DEMILION did well to finish second at Doncaster 17 days ago having raced freely in the early stages. He was returning from an absence that day, however, and it's likely that run has blown away the cobwebs. The Roaring Lion colt can continue to progress on the turf this season, and the booking of Frankie Dettori catches the eye. Imperial Ace makes his handicap debut from an opening mark of 90 following a brace of successes at Newcastle and Southwell and appeals as a leading contender, along with the Charlie Appleby-trained High Honour. At the foot of the handicap, it would be folly to underestimate the chances of Great Bedwyn.
Prediction : 1st Demilion 2nd Imperial Ace 3rd High Honour
