UK Horse Racing Tips: Southwell

Narrowly denied at Newcastle last time out on just his second run over fences, BRICKADANK can gain compensation on this occasion with the slight rise in distance expected to suit. A promising second on her chase debut at Wincanton, Dime Store Cowgirl can give him the most to think about, along with Miss Antipova, who ran well at Ffos Las last month but is now winless in 17 starts.
Prediction : 1st Brickadank 2nd Miss Antipova 3rd Dime Store Cowgirl

The Fergal O'Brien stable can do little wrong at present and AVIEWTOSEA must hold every chance on his return from a 245-day break. A winner of three of his last four starts, this looks like a perfect starting point for another summer campaign and he can see off the likes of Fire Away and Dee Star, who arrives with similar claims on the back of an absence.
Prediction : 1st Aviewtosea 2nd Dee Star 3rd Fire Away

A chance is taken with WOOLBERRY, who is a daughter of Woolstone One, a Listed-winning mare who was also trained by Emma Lavelle. The form of the yard is another plus and the four-year-old edges the vote over By The Grace for last year's winning connections, as well as Blue The Money, who is related to several first-time-out bumper winners. Anna Of Annandale appeals most of those with experience.
Prediction : 1st Woolberry 2nd By The Grace 3rd Blue The Money

The once-raced WESTWOOD RYDER hasn't been seen since he posted a respectable effort to finish second in a bumper at Huntingdon in May 2021, but the winner of that race went on to score twice over hurdles and the form looks solid. He's has a wind problem addressed since then and, given he has the benefit of Nicky Henderson's expert tutelage, he is taken to justify exactly why he has been kept in training. Cabhfuilfungi is a clear second choice, while Ilestdancingspirit also offers some appeal.
Prediction : 1st Westwood Ryder 2nd Cabhfuilfungi 3rd Ilestdancingspirit

Several of these arrive in good form and while Chti Balko is dangerously well-handicapped on his past exploits over hurdles, and Midnight Jewel is highly respected as he reverts to timber off just 4lb higher than his last success in this discipline, the vote goes to BLUE SHARK. Having enjoyed a highly-profitable period since last November, dropping back in trip is very much in his favour and he is worth forgiving a lacklustre effort over 2m7f at Exeter last time.
Prediction : 1st Blue Shark 2nd Chti Balko 3rd Midnight Jewel

KINGFAST readily got off the mark over hurdles at Market Rasen on Friday and the eight-year-old is hard to oppose here without a penalty for landing that conditional jockeys' event. Rocambolas also scored on his most recent outing but a 7lb rise will make his life harder now. Getaman is another with strong form claims, while Bobby Socks and Zoran are the pick of the remaining field.
Prediction : 1st Kingfast 2nd Rocambolas 3rd Getaman

ELHAM VALLEY bounced back to form when second over this trip at Kempton three weeks ago and he arguably sets the standard off the same mark here. That said, Toronet has to be respected on his UK debut having won his final start in France earlier in the year. Karannelle should not be underestimated, while Too Friendly and Mcgowan's Pass could also go well.
Prediction : 1st Elham Valley 2nd Toronet 3rd Karannelle
