UK Horse Racing Tips: Nottingham

JASOUR sets a strong standard on his debut second at Salisbury last month and a similar level of performance may suffice here. Ian Williams has two interesting newcomers in Hinitsa Bay and Whathappensinvegas, with the latter making slightly more appeal given the speed in his pedigree, but the market should reveal more. Mushterek is entitled to build on his opening fourth-placed finish at Ayr recently and is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Jasour 2nd Whathappensinvegas 3rd Mushterek

LORD OF BISCAY failed to justify strong market support when sixth in the Horris Hill at Newbury last season, but it's too early to be writing Roger Varian's charge off and he should appreciate this return to quicker conditions. One Night Thunder was far-from disgraced when posting a third-placed effort in a decent conditions event at Goodwood last month and he's feared most. Gordon Grey may come into his own once entering handicaps, nevertheless, the colt still makes most appeal of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Lord Of Biscay 2nd One Night Thunder 3rd Gordon Grey

Clipsham Gold gained a second all-weather success of the year when proving a ready winner at Kempton last month and she can't be taken lightly off a 5lb higher mark. However, MOGWAI finished third on that occasion and the Sean Woods-trained filly could build on that, following a 475-day absence, to reverse the placings here. Three-time C&D winner Eponina is now 5lb lower than her last triumph and also warrants consideration.
Prediction : 1st Mogwai 2nd Clipsham Gold 3rd Eponina

Encourageable is entitled to come on from his seasonal debut in the Lincoln at Doncaster in April and a first-time tongue-tie can see the son of Profitable improve in a weaker contest. However, AL AGAILA extended her unbeaten run in handicaps when scoring in game fashion over 1m2f at Lingfield in January. She has proven to go well on turf in the past and she merits plenty of respect. Point Lynas was narrowly denied at York last month and is another to note off 2lb higher.
Prediction : 1st Al Agaila 2nd Encourageable 3rd Point Lynas

In a contest lacking depth, a tentative vote is given WAR CHANT. He finished a length behind the winner in fifth at Bath over a mile last month and the fact he retains the mark from that run makes him of additional interest. He is rated 8lb above his last winning mark, though, so the unexposed Rubellite could give him plenty to think about. Ella's Angel makes her handicap debut and completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st War Chant 2nd Rubellite 3rd Ellas Angel

REACH posted a creditable fourth in a warm handicap at York's Dante meeting last month, an effort for which she was subsequently eased 1lb in the handicap. The unexposed daughter of Sea The Stars drops in both class and trip today, and she ought to be capable of better. Angels Landing would have to enter calculations having hit the woodwork at Chelmsford in April, while Baikal, who won over timber at Worcester 18 days ago, can't be left out of the equation either.
Prediction : 1st Reach 2nd Angels Landing 3rd Baikal

Han Solo Berger continues in good form and appeals as a likely candidate once again, while Enchanted Night merits respect at the foot of the handicap, following her recent Yarmouth second. However, a chance is taken on LATIN FIVE. Paul Midgley's sprinter has tumbled down the ratings of late, but he showed more when sixth at Catterick last month. Eased a further 2lb, leaving him 11lb lower than for last July's Beverley success, this could be the time to catch him.
Prediction : 1st Latin Five 2nd Han Solo Berger 3rd Enchanted Night
