UK Horse Racing Tips: Huntingdon

A DEFINITE GETAWAY arrives here on the back of two second-placed finishes and this appears to be a perfect opportunity for the five-year-old to go one better. Park Hill Dancer has the ability to give the selection plenty to think about, while Final Encore came up short in a good Cheltenham race last time but he is more than capable of making the frame at this level.
Prediction : 1st A Definite Getaway 2nd Park Hill Dancer 3rd Final Encore

PARC D'AMOUR only found one too good on his handicap debut at Warwick 10 days ago and the first-time application of a hood could help him to score off the same mark here. Odin's Quest won a maiden hurdle at Wincanton recently and an opening rating of 103 should be workable for him. I Hope Star is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Parc Damour 2nd Odins Quest 3rd I Hope Star

The consistent Ragamuffin has to be respected on his return to action, but preference is for ELIOS D'OR. Robert Walford's gelding won well over hurdles at Kempton and his subsequent defeat at Warwick can be forgiven, although he is 10lb higher back over fences here. Viva Lavilla should not be underestimated, while Dino Velvet is another who could make the frame.
Prediction : 1st Elios DOr 2nd Ragamuffin 3rd Viva Lavilla

Gaia Vallis was second by a neck last time at Taunton and was put up 2lb for that solid effort. She will face different conditions on this occasion, which could give a chance to MILANESE ROSE. The daughter of Milan ran well off this mark on her penultimate start at Plumpton and, if able to reproduce that level of form, she is likely to go very close. Sadie Hill and First Venture are others to watch out for.
Prediction : 1st Milanese Rose 2nd Gaia Vallis 3rd Sadie Hill

William Of York brought the double up at Huntingdon last time and was raised a further 5lb in the ratings for that victory, which may not be enough to stop him here. However, preference is for SWAPPED, who is returning from a break after having a wind operation and looks to have been given a workable opening mark, with the step up to this distance a possible source of improvement. Issar D'Airy, Great Ocean and Denable are other contenders to note.
Prediction : 1st Swapped 2nd William Of York 3rd Issar DAiry

I'M A STARMAN returned to form when second at Wincanton last month and is feared with ground conditions likely to suit. Dorado Dollar is another boasting claims at this level, as he took a step in the right direction when finishing a neck second at Warwick last month. Of the others, Carrigeen Konini might be a bit of each-way value on her first start for Micky Hammond.
Prediction : 1st Im A Starman 2nd Dorado Dollar 3rd Carrigeen Konini

Broomhill Road and Whatawit appeal most from those with previous experience and each are worth monitoring in the betting. However, there are a few interesting newcomers that appeal on pedigree, with HEAD OVER HINDS, whose dam won a bumper in Ireland before progressing to be a Grade 3 winner over hurdles, looking the most attractive proposition. He debuts for a yard in flying form and appears to have been found an ideal platform to launch his career. Potters Bishop is another compelling debutant.
Prediction : 1st Head Over Hinds 2nd Broomhill Road 3rd Whatawit
