UK Horse Racing Tips: Newbury

SAVVY KINGDOM made a promising start to his career when third over 6f at Windsor last month. Sean Woods' charge was beaten just one and three quarter lengths that day and he's likely to have improved for that experience. Infinity Blue, a son of Blue Point, is of most interest out of the debutants for the powerful combination of Andrew Balding and Oisin Murphy, while Chiedozie heads the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Savvy Kingdom 2nd Infinity Blue 3rd Chiedozie

Al Aasy is the highest rated of these and he deserves to be taken very seriously, but his last of five over 1m4f at Newmarket earlier this month is a concern, therefore the nod goes to HIGHLAND AVENUE. Charlie Appleby's five-year-old hasn't won for more than two years but he's been running well in defeat this term, most recently when a good fourth in the Wolferton at Ascot. A repeat of that effort wouldn't see him too far away, while Epic Poet is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Highland Avenue 2nd Al Aasy 3rd Epic Poet

SWEET WILLIAM created a big impression when scoring over 1m4f at Doncaster last time and he can follow up that success here. John and Thady Gosden's charge shaped as if this hike in trip would be no issue, scoring even more comfortably than the winning distance of four and a quarter lengths might suggest. Nathanael Greene is feared most after running well in the Northumberland Plate at Newcastle last time and he should pose a threat off the same mark, while Postileo and Novel Legend could also feature.
Prediction : 1st Sweet William 2nd Nathanael Greene 3rd Postileo

Though Garrus merits respect having defeated Commanche Falls in the Abernant Stakes at Newmarket in April, he might struggle to confirm that form under a 3lb penalty. The latter also makes plenty of appeal, but a chance is taken on COLD CASE. Ground conditions were said to have scuppered his chances in the Sandy Lane last time, but they should suit here and Karl Burke's unexposed sprinter might resume his progress. Lezoo is firmly in the mix on official ratings and she is a key player in receipt of weight.
Prediction : 1st Cold Case 2nd Commanche Falls 3rd Lezoo

A typically wide-open renewal in which many will fancy their chances, and only a tentative vote can go to RELIEF RALLY. A winner of her first two starts, she ran a mighty race when narrowly denied in the Queen Mary last month. The daughter of Kodiac is likely to need luck in running but that Royal Ascot form makes her a leading candidate. Juniper Berries finished four lengths behind the selection on that occasion but she's entitled to be in the mix, along with stablemate and Coventry-sixth Bobsleigh. The recent Listed-scorer Son Of Corballis can also figure, while others to note include World Of Darcy, Beenham and The Camden Colt.
Prediction : 1st Relief Rally 2nd Juniper Berries 3rd Bobsleigh

Richard Hannon has won this race for the last two years, so Mr Wonderful, who made a low-key debut at Doncaster nine days ago, must be respected. Free Nation might have been a beaten favourite on both of his starts to date, but he should not be far away if a first-time hood allows him to settle. However, L'ENNEMI, a 190,000-euro purchase, is a half-brother to the Group 1 winner Polydream and he is fancied to make a winning debut.
Prediction : 1st Lennemi 2nd Mr Wonderful 3rd Free Nation

This is a far easier assignment for Oaks fourth MAMAN JOON, who found things happening too quickly for her when last in the Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot last time. However, all of these are unexposed and the likes of Mambo Sunset, Humankind and Deep Dive are nicely-bred individuals that can give the selection something to think about now they switch to turf.
Prediction : 1st Maman Joon 2nd Mambo Sunset 3rd Humankind

With six consecutive wins, Sparks Fly has made rapid progress since she switched to turf in April. Laura Pearson has been in the saddle for the last four of those successes and it would be folly to suggest another bold effort wasn't possible. However, this is an ease in grade for DON'T TELL CLAIRE, whose game second in the Kensington Palace at Royal Ascot is of a higher standard and earns her a slender vote of confidence. Conservationist and Eximious also appeal strongly at this level.
Prediction : 1st Dont Tell Claire 2nd Sparks Fly 3rd Conservationist
