UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

HAVANA HEAT has an official rating of just 36 and has shown precious little so far, including when beating just one opponent home in a classified event at Southwell last time. He was sent off favourite there, though, which wasn't the first time he attracted market support, and he has been gelded ahead of this handicap debut. Charlie Hills' charge is given one more chance and if he fails again, Struck Gold and Asian Queen could be the chief beneficiaries.
Prediction : 1st Havana Heat 2nd Struck Gold 3rd Asian Queen

Another Thought confirmed the promise of her debut third at Bath when digging deep to win a three-runner affair over C&D. She has a fitness edge over GARNER, who has been sidelined for more than a year but created a good impression when making it second-time lucky at Nottingham. The form has been boosted more than once, particularly when the third almost landed a Listed prize at Sandown, and the son of Recorder can pick up where he left off for new handler Archie Watson. Newcomer Miss Requinto rates best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Garner 2nd Another Thought 3rd Miss Requinto

Having managed only fourth in a race won by Byefornow over 6f at this venue in April, IMPERIOUSITY improved past his rival when making every post a winning one over this trip here. Amanda Perrett's speedster can dictate terms to suit himself again, although Byefornow is 4lb better off and has just a length to make up. Victors Dream and Rewilding both made pleasing beginnings to their handicap careers and should be respected.
Prediction : 1st Imperiousity 2nd Byefornow 3rd Victors Dream

BUSINESS hasn't performed badly in handicaps at Chelmsford and Kempton but the last time he tackled claiming company and teamed up with Billy Loughnane, he ran out a comprehensive winner at Wolverhampton. He can capitalise on the drop in class and can confirm his superiority over Brains, who has an identical official rating but is giving him weight and was behind Sean Curran's six-year-old at Kempton. Returning duo Toronado Grey and Unilateralism round out the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Business 2nd Brains 3rd Unilateralism

RECHERCHER disappointed slightly at Windsor last time out but she is taken to bounce back on this occasion, with the better ground expected to suit. George Baker's filly can get off the mark at the 13th time of asking, with Rose Light, who was a neck and a position ahead of her in third over 1m2f here in April, and Daphne May looking best placed to chase her home. Star From Afarhh has the potential to improve for stepping up in trip and is likely to be thereabouts as well.
Prediction : 1st Rechercher 2nd Daphne May 3rd Star From Afarhh

MR FREEDOM arrives on the back of several highly creditable runs over hurdles and he was a comfortable winner when last seen on the all-weather here in January. An 8lb rise for that triumph still leaves him well treated compared to his NH figure and he is preferred to narrow Windsor runner-up Manor Park and Pledge Of Peace, who ran well on his first start for new connections at Yarmouth.
Prediction : 1st Mr Freedom 2nd Manor Park 3rd Pledge Of Peace

CHERRY COLA bounced back to form with a comfortable win at Yarmouth last week and the step up in trip could eke out further improvement in Sheena West's mare, who can defy her penalty. Russian Rumour wasn't beaten far at Bath last time out and should be a key player, along with At The Double, who is far better than he showed at Chelmsford when last seen.
Prediction : 1st Cherry Cola 2nd Russian Rumour 3rd At The Double
