UK Horse Racing Tips: Ayr

Narrowly denied on two of his last three starts, SIXCOR looks primed to defend his crown, having won this off an identical mark last year. The booking of Dougie Costello for the first time could be another plus and he is narrowly preferred to Emeralds Pride, who has a 5lb penalty to overcome for scoring over C&D on Monday. Fellow C&D winner Ski Angel is capable of being in the shake-up too.
Prediction : 1st Sixcor 2nd Emeralds Pride 3rd Ski Angel

The hat-trick seeking Ayr Poet has been nothing shy of progressive recently and Jim Goldie's eight-year-old can go close under a 4lb penalty for his last success. However, GOLDEN VALOUR filled the runner-up spot behind the aforementioned most recently and can reverse that form now 6lb better off with his rival. Havana Party is another to bear in mind following a decent third at Hamilton in June.
Prediction : 1st Golden Valour 2nd Ayr Poet 3rd Havana Party

VINTAGE LOVE shaped well on her racecourse bow when fifth at Newcastle earlier this month and the daughter of Expert Eye makes plenty of appeal with that experience under her belt. Similar comments apply to War Memorial, who outran his odds when fourth at Thirsk at the end of last month, while Curious Rover, who placed on debut at Musselburgh, may benefit from dropping a furlong in distance.
Prediction : 1st Vintage Love 2nd War Memorial 3rd Curious Rover

The key to this race could be the recent clash over C&D between KATS BOB (first) and Caribbean Sunset (second), with the former taken to come out on top once again. That latter has gone up 3lb for a subsequent success, so Iain Jardine's charge is only 1lb worse off with that rival as they reopposes and the fact he has won here over further is another plus. Course regular One Last Hug and The Caltonian cannot be ruled out either.
Prediction : 1st Kats Bob 2nd Caribbean Sunset 3rd One Last Hug

First Greyed was a good winner over an extended 7f at Beverley last time, but he may struggle to defy a 3lb rise in the ratings, so the nod goes to YEEEAAH. Tristan Davidson's charge has yet to shed his maiden tag but he has been shaping as if a win could be just around the corner after running consistently well over a mile of late and the drop in trip appears likely to unlock more improvement. Slippin Jimmy heads the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Yeeeaah 2nd First Greyed 3rd Slippin Jimmy

Future Times could try to make the running again and he may not be easy to pass dropping back to this trip. ANA EMARAATY ran his best race yet when third at Newcastle, despite being short of room at a crucial stage, and after only seven starts he may have more improvement to come. Jaminoz, Cabinet Maker and El Royale all have form that suggests they can have a say.
Prediction : 1st Ana Emaraaty 2nd Future Times 3rd Jaminoz
