UK Horse Racing Tips: Salisbury

This has the stamp of being an informative maiden, with NOTTA NOTHER the most appealing debutant. The son of Havana Grey, who cost 70,000 euros as a yearling, has an early entry in the Redcar Two Year Old Trophy and can give Richard Hannon some just reward on a very busy weekend for the team. Serried Ranks is penalised for a winning a three-runner race at Nottingham, so well-related newcomers Reveiller and Magic Force might pose more serious threats.
Prediction : 1st Notta Nother 2nd Reveiller 3rd Magic Force

CLUEDO is noteworthy from the foot of the weights after an impressive display to get off the mark at Bath on her handicap debut. The daughter of Kodiac won by five and a half lengths and it's hard to evaluate how much more she has to give. The handicapper suggests 10lb puts her in the bracket of a big improver and she could be too progressive for this bunch. Fair Wind and Estate are others to monitor in the betting, while Just A Spark is reliable enough to consider.
Prediction : 1st Cluedo 2nd Fair Wind 3rd Estate

It's still early days for LEADENHALL and he can deliver on the promise he showed as a juvenile, despite him being turned over at odds-on in a novice stakes at Chelmsford when last seen. He ran too freely that day but has been gelded now so a more focused effort can be expected as he drops down a furlong. Okami appeals most of the remainder with experience, while Desert Voice and Bondi Bay are interesting newcomers to monitor in the betting.
Prediction : 1st Leadenhall 2nd Okami 3rd Desert Voice

RUN TO FREEDOM, a C&D winner here last summer before finishing a shock runner-up in a Group 1 at Ascot, is better than he showed at Haydock on his reappearance and could take some stopping on the assumption that he will be sharper for that blowout. Rohaan would be an obvious threat on his best form but has tended to need his return runs, so it may be that dual Group 2 winner Sandrine is a better alternative on this occasion, with Marbaan also respected.
Prediction : 1st Run To Freedom 2nd Sandrine 3rd Marbaan

None of these have looked convincing so far, including LADY RASCAL, who hasn't come close to living up to her 270,000gns purchase fee. For all that, George Boughey's filly offered more encouragement when third at Newbury on her handicap bow and may prove the answer to this tricky affair. Victoria County took a step backwards at Ripon but his earlier promise makes him a player, while Savvy Brilliance is a potential improver over this longer trip.
Prediction : 1st Lady Rascal 2nd Victoria County 3rd Savvy Brilliance

Robusto makes his handicap bow after barely landing a glove on any of his rivals in his career to date, but he should be respected given he hails from the Sir Mark Prescott yard and this would be a quintessential Prescott training performance. KHAL is perhaps a safer option, though, after his second of seven over 1m2f at Beverley and he should enjoy the 2lb drop in the ratings and this extra yardage. Papa Ricco is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Khal 2nd Robusto 3rd Papa Ricco

This appears to be a competitive heat with plenty of live chances but the nod goes to CRESCENT LAKE, who was a good winner over this trip at Goodwood. Gary Moore's representative has been handed a 3lb hike in the ratings as a result of that effort, and that could prove lenient. Seal Of Solomon has been in good form on the all-weather and he deserves respect, while Claritudo should also be thereabouts.
Prediction : 1st Crescent Lake 2nd Seal Of Solomon 3rd Claritudo
