UK Horse Racing Tips: Worcester

HEROS DE MOUTIERS made a promising start to his chasing career when filling the runner-up spot over 2m1f at Market Rasen last month. He has gone up 1lb for that run, which may not be enough to halt his progression here. King Of Quinta took a big step forward when second at Southwell most recently and he can give the selection plenty to think about, while Famoso is another to bear in mind.
Prediction : 1st Heros De Moutiers 2nd King Of Quinta 3rd Famoso

My Gift To You remains unexposed and makes his chasing debut following a facile win over hurdles. The retained booking of Harry Cobden must make James Owen's inmate of significant interest, but LAMANVER STORM shades the vote.The eight-year-old kept on for second over a similar distance at Southwell last time out and shaped as though he would improve, given that was his first run off a break. Lonimoss Bareliere completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Lamanver Storm 2nd My Gift To You 3rd Lonimoss Bareliere

In a contest lacking depth, marginal preference is given to recent C&D runner-up ZORAN. Emma Lavelle's inmate has gone up 2lb for the aforementioned outing and is taken to get the better of Copper Fox, who was pulled up over an extended 2m1f at Cartmel last month. If I Say also warrants a market check following a distant third at Stratford.
Prediction : 1st Zoran 2nd Copper Fox 3rd If I Say

Northern Bound has been running with credit over fences recently and could play a leading role from a reduced hurdles mark, but preference is for THE HEIGHT OF FAME. She bumped into an improver when filling the runner-up spot at Newton Abbot last month, so the daughter of Fame And Glory might be worth chancing from an unchanged mark. Astromachia is also noted.
Prediction : 1st The Height Of Fame 2nd Northern Bound 3rd Astromachia

MILITARY TWO STEP won off a mark of 82 on the Flat last month, having achieved a peak rating of 90 previously. Recruited by the James Owen team later that month, she ought to mount a serious challenge if taking to this new discipline. She shades preference over Hard As Nails, who made a pleasing start when third, albeit well beaten, at Cartmel on her hurdling bow. Others to note include Our Nel and Come On Du Berlais.
Prediction : 1st Military Two Step 2nd Hard As Nails 3rd Our Nel

IZAYTE wasn't beaten far over this trip at Uttoxeter last time and, while this is a slight step up in class, he can gain compensation as the competition doesn't look much deeper. Neil King's gelding possibly paid the price for cutting out the running on that occasion, yet still deserves credit for a very game effort. Forget The Way is feared most on his third start after returning from wind surgery, although Choirmaster is another fancied to go well.
Prediction : 1st Izayte 2nd Forget The Way 3rd Choirmaster

RUBYS REWARD had plenty in hand when she won over C&D last month and is fancied to be hard to beat, despite a 7lb higher mark. If anything, this looks an easier assignment for Debra Hamer's mare and it would come as no surprise to see her take the challenge in her stride. Valentine Getaway and Cluain Aodha are others with the ability to make the frame at least.
Prediction : 1st Rubys Reward 2nd Valentine Getaway 3rd Cluain Aodha
