UK Horse Racing Tips: Worcester

CAPTAIN IVAN is in the form of his life at present and a fourth win in five starts could be in the offing for the nine-year-old as he looks to follow up on a determined victory at Perth last month. Gold Link has had wind surgery since his last run, which was his first over fences, which may yield some improvement, while Lucky Lover Boy is another with the form to get involved.
Prediction : 1st Captain Ivan 2nd Gold Link 3rd Lucky Lover Boy

DICEY RIELLY has been in terrific form of late over hurdles and she can take the switch back to fences in her stride off a 5lb lower mark. The form of her stable is another plus and she should have too much for Princess Midnight, who has the potential to improve for going back up in trip, and the capable Somewhat Cloudy.
Prediction : 1st Dicey Rielly 2nd Princess Midnight 3rd Somewhat Cloudy

A winner of his last three starts, including over C&D last time out, ROCK THE HOUSE has been quite the revelation since joining the Katy Price stable and he should be able to continue his rapid progression. The hat-trick-seeking Charlie My Boy can follow him home alongside Galata Bridge, who ran well over C&D last month. Allihies and Pencreek are entitled to be thereabouts as well.
Prediction : 1st Rock The House 2nd Charlie My Boy 3rd Galata Bridge

GAMBIE TIEP arrives having notched up a quick-fire double, with the latest of those successes coming at Perth four days ago. Turned out quickly before a subsequent 8lb rise kicks in, Ben Pauling's charge is difficult to oppose. Turpin Gold looks set to play a leading role having struck the woodwork at Uttoxeter last time, while others to note include Rock On Harry and the class-dropping Glimpse Of Gold.
Prediction : 1st Gambie Tiep 2nd Turpin Gold 3rd Rock On Harry

ZUCAYAN was able to build on his Bangor effort having returned from a break in April when winning at Ludlow the following month and the lightly-raced six-year-old is fancied to continue his progression from a 4lb higher mark. Graffiti has been in good form on the Flat recently and must be of interest back in this sphere, while Zamond is just 1lb above his last winning mark and it would come as no surprise were he to feature.
Prediction : 1st Zucayan 2nd Graffiti 3rd Zamond

Second on both starts over timber, WOODIE FLASH appeals as the type to go one better now raised in trip. Olly Murphy's gelding shades the vote over Carpe Diem, who looks capable of building on last month's debut third here in a bumper. Teeceethree is another potential improver over this longer distance, while dual point-winner Craven Bay cannot be left out of calculations either.
Prediction : 1st Woodie Flash 2nd Carpe Diem 3rd Teeceethree

Only Fools has hit the crossbar the last twice in this grade and is only asked to compete off a 3lb higher mark compared to the start of those efforts, but she is going into the unknown with this step up in distance, so for that reason, GENEVER DRAGON gets the vote. The son of Dragon Pulse filled the runner-up spot at Sedgefield over this trip last September and he made his return with a solid third at Stratford, so he could attempt to make all off the same rating. Nowyouvebinandunit is another to watch out for.
Prediction : 1st Genever Dragon 2nd Only Fools 3rd Nowyouvebinandunit

NO WAY PEDRO is two from two since joining the Brian Barr yard and the latest of those victories came in a selling hurdle at Southwell over 2m. The step up in trip shouldn't pose him many problems, as he has placed form over this distance in Ireland previously in his career, so he can make it a hat-trick. Bluebella certainly won't go down without a fight after finishing 11 lengths clear of the third at Uttoxeter, along with recent C&D fourth Inspector Lynley.
Prediction : 1st No Way Pedro 2nd Bluebella 3rd Inspector Lynley
