UK Horse Racing Tips: Newmarket

Royal Elysian arguably sets the standard on her debut second at Haydock earlier in the month, but she may prove vulnerable to two interesting newcomers, with MOONFIRE topping the list. Charlie Appleby's filly boasts a smart pedigree, a half-sister to Jebel Hatta winner Dream Castle, and she may possess too much class for these rivals. Hard To Resist is also bred to have a say, with the market likely to prove informative.
Prediction : 1st Moonfire 2nd Hard To Resist 3rd Royal Elysian

Moonlit Cloud was foiled in her bid to land a hat-trick when runner-up at Lingfield on Saturday, but she must enter calculations turned out quickly off the same mark here. However, SWING TO THE STARS makes slightly more appeal now tasked with a stiffer test and the daughter of Sea The Stars is expected to relish this 1m2f distance. Flash Bardot and Ragosina also have the form to get involved and complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Swing To The Stars 2nd Moonlit Cloud 3rd Flash Bardot

FULL REGALIA offered plenty of encouragement when finishing fourth on her debut over 7f at Yarmouth recently and this extra distance may bring about enough improvement to record a breakthrough success. Beautiful Summer and Fleurir could also put their experience to good use and play a part in the finish, while any market support for newcomer Le Mans, a half-sister to dual Group 2 winner Lusail, may be worth heeding too.
Prediction : 1st Full Regalia 2nd Beautiful Summer 3rd Le Mans

LE REVEUR went close over C&D last week and the six-year-old is fancied to go one better this time around, especially running off a 2lb lower mark and, therefore, being 3lb well-in compared to future handicaps. Pearl Eye has yet to run a bad race since being upped to this trip and looks sure to give another good account of himself. Although yet to get off the mark, Raqraaq appears to be heading in the right direction and it would be no surprise should he open his account here.
Prediction : 1st Le Reveur 2nd Pearl Eye 3rd Raqraaq

Having finished fourth in Group 3 company on his final outing last term, an opening mark of 86 may see BEHIND THE SCENES get her campaign off to the perfect start. The Charlie Johnston-trained In These Shoes can be forgiven her most recent outing when down the field at Chester due to be posted in the widest stall of all and being slowly away. A return to this quicker surface was the reason given behind Havana Blue's comfortable victory on the Rowley Mile last month and is another worthy of consideration.
Prediction : 1st Behind The Scenes 2nd Havana Blue 3rd In These Shoes

LULWORTH COVE won easier than the winning distance of two lengths would suggest over 6f at Lingfield last time and she may be up to this 7lb rise from the handicapper. Pinafore appears to be the biggest danger after her victory at Ripon on her latest outing, while Priscilla's Wish should also be challenging at the line following her recent display at Yarmouth.
Prediction : 1st Lulworth Cove 2nd Pinafore 3rd Priscillas Wish

FIRST SIGHT arrives here seeking a hat-trick after wins on the all weather at Kempton and Lingfield and this looks a nice opportunity to continue his winning sequence. Charlie Appleby's charge is making his handicap bow here, having been a late non-runner at Royal Ascot on Saturday when well fancied, and this opening mark of 90 doesn't appear out of his reach. Peace Man will pose the biggest threat, given he is also chasing a hat-trick, although John and Thady Gosden's runner will have to negotiate a 7lb rise in the ratings, while better can be expected from Like A Tiger.
Prediction : 1st First Sight 2nd Peace Man 3rd Like A Tiger
