UK Horse Racing Tips: Down Royal

FINEST EVERMORE has been absent since scoring off a mark of 137 at Killarney in August, but a reproduction of that level of form on her return would make her hard to beat. Tuesday's Ballinrobe winner Media Naranja is an obvious threat to the selection if over those exertions. Lady Of The Vale is another last-time-out winner to note, while Shesadream scored in this race 12 months ago and is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Finest Evermore 2nd Media Naranja 3rd Lady Of The Vale

This can go the way of MASTER SPLINTER, who ran a highly encouraging race on his Rules debut at Limerick last week and is entitled to improve for the experience. Placed on two of his three career outings, Valsorpresa can give the selection the most to think about, along with Bowmore, who returns from a 158-day absence. Pahlavi and Pro Bono are open to progression as well.
Prediction : 1st Master Splinter 2nd Valsorpresa 3rd Bowmore

STADIUM TALK, who won a Ballinaboola point-to-point before making a successful NH Rules debut in a bumper at Hexham last month, is a strong candidate to get off the mark over timber at the first time of asking. The daughter of Soldier Of Fortune is a half-sister to a hurdles winner over this sort of trip and ticks all the right boxes today. Shajak appears to be the chief threat, while Noble Blue and Ochocinco are others to monitor in the betting.
Prediction : 1st Stadium Talk 2nd Shajak 3rd Noble Blue

I AM SPIDER MAN was very well supported in the market when falling on his stable debut at Clonmel last month and he could be worth chancing to put that mishap behind him here. Recent chase winner Lakefield Flyer looks to have more races in him and the five-year-old isn't taken lightly now returned to hurdles. Serpolette is 2lb lower than last season's triumph at Tramore and she is another to note.
Prediction : 1st I Am Spider Man 2nd Lakefield Flyer 3rd Serpolette

A few with chances, including last year's winner Bravo Team, who returns from a 318-day absence and boasts claims despite being 7lb higher. I Don't Get It continues to progress and merits serious consideration too, though preference is for CEROC. The five-year-old made a winning handicap debut at Cork last month before doubling up at Wexford a fortnight later, and a further 7lb rise might not stop him from completing a hat-trick. Fiveonefive is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Ceroc 2nd Bravo Team 3rd I Dont Get It

WALKING THE WALK was a good second last time over the larger obstacles at Wexford and he may have been found a decent opportunity to go one better. Gordon Elliott's charge runs off a 17lb lower mark and he looks primed to go one better than last time. Porky Rush is feared most based on the form he showed on the track last year, while Sulafaat should also be noted following her recent fourth at Downpatrick.
Prediction : 1st Walking The Walk 2nd Porky Rush 3rd Sulafaat

Joseph O'Brien sends out an appealing newcomer in the shape of ROEDORA, whose half-brother San Salvador was a dual winner over hurdles for the yard. This looks a good starting place for the four-year-old and she readily heads the shortlist in a race where several of her rivals may find stamina for the trip is a telling factor. Miss Direct and Hurricane Honey appeal most of those with previous experience, with Mooneys Princess another debutant to bear in mind.
Prediction : 1st Roedora 2nd Miss Direct 3rd Hurricane Honey
