UK Horse Racing Tips: Chepstow

DESERT continues to ease in the ratings and the four-year-old gets the tentative nod off 11lb lower than her sole victory. Despite finding plenty of trouble in running, the daughter of Havana Gold gave a good account to finish third over course and distance last time out and may make amends in this contest. Rhubarb has been knocking on the door of late and demands the utmost respect, while Jacquelina is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Desert 2nd Rhubarb 3rd Jacquelina

SPARKLIGHT has shown plenty of promise when runner-up on her two racecourse appearances to date and the Eve Johnson Houghton-trained filly can get off the mark at the third of asking. However, there are plenty of dangers, including Crooked Crown, who took a big step forward when second at Haydock last month. Despite showing signs of inexperience, Imperiality hit the line with plenty of conviction at Lingfield on debut and the daughter of Exceed And Excel completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Sparklight 2nd Crooked Crown 3rd Imperiality

DOCTOR MOZART arrives here in a rich vein of form, landing the spoils on three of his last four outings, and the son of Dandy Man can defy a 3lb rise and add another victory to his record. Class Member was by no means disgraced when third at Lingfield last month and could be well handicapped off a mark of 67, while C&D winner Destiny's Spirit is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Doctor Mozart 2nd Class Member 3rd Destinys Spirit

REDREDROBIN has been in outstanding form of late and returning to a track where she has won twice is a major plus as she looks to land the hat-trick. Malcolm Saunders' charge should have too much for Connie's Rose, who has finished in the first two on her last two starts at this venue, as well as the in-form Port Noir. Savalas would be a player as well if turning up here instead of the 17.30 at Bath on Friday.
Prediction : 1st Redredrobin 2nd Connies Rose 3rd Port Noir

SIR WINSTON produced a taking win at Brighton and there should be much more to come from the four-year-old as he looks to overcome a 5lb rise for that success. His chief threat looks to be Iconic Knight, who has not been outside the first two in his last four starts over C&D, while Winforglory is another who is capable of having a say in proceedings.
Prediction : 1st Sir Winston 2nd Iconic Knight 3rd Winforglory

FACT OR FABLE was an unlucky loser at Bath last time out when a length third despite missing the start, and then running into traffic close home over an extended 5f. With all four of his wins coming over seven furlongs or further, the step back up in trip looks ideal and a big run is can be anticipated. Dame Laura Knight tries cheekpieces on her turf debut and, if she finds improvement for the change of surface, she could surprise a few. Ballet Blanc is potentially well handicapped if connections can get her to repeat her best all-weather form on the grass.
Prediction : 1st Fact Or Fable 2nd Dame Laura Knight 3rd Ballet Blanc

Though still a maiden after 17 starts under both codes, LUSAKA wasn't disgraced in a class 5 event at Newbury last month. Eased 2lb in the handicap for that effort, he is now considerably well treated on his earlier Irish form and, dropped into a class 6 for the first time, he could get off the mark. Fellow class-dropper Geelong merits respect, while Prince Ali appeals most of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Lusaka 2nd Geelong 3rd Prince Ali
