UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

BLINDEDBYTHELIGHTS proved a different proposition when winning with ease on his handicap debut at Yarmouth on Thursday and a 6lb penalty is unlikely to prevent the son of Protectionist from going in again. The Pug wasn't disgraced when finding only a progressive rival too good at Wolverhampton in April and he can give the selection plenty to think about, while Fullforward may have some improvement in him now stepped up in trip.
Prediction : 1st Blindedbythelights 2nd The Pug 3rd Fullforward

OBAMA ARMY arrives in fine form and a latest 1lb rise for his runner-up effort at Carlisle may not be enough to stop Jack Channon's gelding from regaining the winning thread. Handicap debutant Jalapa looks to be on a fair opening mark and she may have more to offer in this sphere. Royal Dream offered something to work with when staying on into fifth on his first attempt over this distance here last month.
Prediction : 1st Obama Army 2nd Jalapa 3rd Royal Dream

The combination of a 135-day break and lower mark saw Dourado gain a first success since November 2017 and, with that in mind, he may be worth taking on now 4lb higher in the ratings. WELOOF appeared to have more races in him when winning on his penultimate start over C&D in February and he's best excused his poor start at Wolverhampton last time. Meng Tian's mark continues to slide and he's noted now tried in new headgear.
Prediction : 1st Weloof 2nd Meng Tian 3rd Dourado

MAGIC FORCE showed plenty of promise on debut last time at Salisbury as he kept on strongly to grab second, and he should have learned a great deal from that experience. With normal improvement, he could prove very tough to beat. The main threat is Invincible Tiger, who took a step forward to hit the frame at Hamilton last time, while any market support for Kitty Bennet would be interesting.
Prediction : 1st Magic Force 2nd Invincible Tiger 3rd Kitty Bennet

Last-time-out victors Bobby's Blessing and Kentucky Bluegrass warrant plenty of respect, as they were both very gutsy winners and are likely to be hard to keep out of the finish, even with 7lb penalties to carry. However, IMPERIAL DREAM, who was last seen filling the runner-up spot at Chelmsford last September, makes more appeal and he has been gelded over the winter, which could eke out the required improvement.
Prediction : 1st Imperial Dream 2nd Bobbys Blessing 3rd Kentucky Bluegrass

Major Gatsby is interesting having won four times over this trip, the latest a year ago off 1lb higher at Brighton. He is weighted to go close, but if KING OF SPEED takes to the distance he may be the one. Running on well to win at Leicester over six furlongs last month, although upped 3lb by the handicapper his jockey negates that rise in the saddle. Spirit Warning may prove best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st King Of Speed 2nd Major Gatsby 3rd Spirit Warning

MOJEYRR looks an interesting sort having come home third on his Kempton debut before following that with a comfortable win at odds-on at Southwell. He has his first start on grass here after a gelding operation, and may well improve for the change of surface. Hover On The Wind could prove a huge danger if first-time cheekpieces have the desired effect, while Magical Merlin represents an in-form yard and he also makes some appeal.
Prediction : 1st Mojeyrr 2nd Hover On The Wind 3rd Magical Merlin
