UK Horse Racing Tips: Beverley

MIDNIGHT LIR found only a subsequent winner too good on his nursery debut at Yarmouth last month and looks the one to beat on this return to maiden company. Of the others, who have raced, Mia Toretto could prove the chief threat. The David O'Meara-trained filly finished a respectable third on her opening bid at Pontefract in late-July and is entitled to build on that effort here. Newcomer Fidelius possesses enough speed in his pedigree to suggest he could have a say too.
Prediction : 1st Midnight Lir 2nd Mia Toretto 3rd Fidelius

Whogoesthere has run well enough on all three appearances to suggest that he can land a race of this nature, with Declan Carroll's gelding sure to prove popular. Nevertheless, HINT OF THE JUNGLE offered plenty of encouragement on his debut fifth at Windsor last month and is fancied to find enough improvement to gain a breakthrough success here. Nouveaux appeared to appreciate the drop to 5f when finishing third at Wolverhampton recently and completes the shortlist now reverting to turf.
Prediction : 1st Hint Of The Jungle 2nd Whogoesthere 3rd Nouveaux

MAGSOOD posted another solid effort in defeat when third at Newmarket last month and must hold every chance in what looks a slightly weaker contest. User Amistoso appears to be the selection's main danger after staying on into second place at Doncaster in late-July, with Michael Bell's colt likely to appreciate an extended 7f here. Newcomer Otto Flash boasts a smart pedigree and must also enter the reckoning if strong in the betting.
Prediction : 1st Magsood 2nd User Amistoso 3rd Otto Flash

HOW BIZARRE is a regular at this course and can again be relied upon to give his all as he attempts to follow up last month's C&D success off just a 2lb higher mark. Similar comments apply to Dr Rio, who shoulders 4lb more than his last-time-out success and may have more to offer now that he has proven himself over this trip. Of the others, it might be worth keeping an eye on Turbo Command.
Prediction : 1st How Bizarre 2nd Dr Rio 3rd Turbo Command

ON THE RIVER is already a dual winner at this course and, having been highly consistent since joining Harriet Bethell, he can defy a career-high mark. The gelding was notably well-supported in the betting for a deeper-looking race at Chester 10 days ago, but, while he ran too freely on that occasion, the return to more familiar surrounds could be more rewarding for any faithful supporters. Recent Leicester winner Craven is still attractively weighted and commands respect, while Metahorse and Reputation also enter calculations.
Prediction : 1st On The River 2nd Craven 3rd Metahorse

Only narrowly denied over C&D last month, a 1lb raised mark may not be enough to stop WHERE'S JEFF building on that and he looks the one to beat. Although he is now rated 2lb above his last winning mark, which came over 1m3f at Hamilton, he is fancied to get the better of Dandy's Angel, who was denied a hat-trick on drier ground at Pontefract last Wednesday. Havana Party is another worthy of consideration.
Prediction : 1st Wheres Jeff 2nd Dandys Angel 3rd Havana Party

A case can be made for several of these, but it could be worth taking a chance on WASDALE. She failed to get into contention when reverting to turf for her latest outing at Chester, but, given she is now rated 2lb below her last winning all-weather mark, could bounce back dropping in distance. Honour Your Dreams can give the selection plenty to think about now eased in class, while the unexposed Dark Crusade is just one other with claims.
Prediction : 1st Wasdale 2nd Honour Your Dreams 3rd Dark Crusade
