UK Horse Racing Tips: Newmarket

This represents a drop in grade for the largely unexposed DIVINE LIBRA after a strong placed effort over C&D last month and the three-year-old can take advantage in this unique handicap. Not in action since scoring at Lingfield in February, Celtic Champion is a key player, along with Music Society, who has been running into form of late. 2021 winner Mitrosonfire is another to note, as well as Magical Max and Mister Bluebird.
Prediction : 1st Divine Libra 2nd Celtic Champion 3rd Mitrosonfire

ARRAY may have been turned over at very short odds when making his second start at Goodwood, but that could be a hot maiden and he should be able to strike in much calmer waters on this occasion. James's Delight got off the mark on his debut at Newbury, but a 6lb penalty is bound to make life tougher, while Hand Jive, a half-brother to Coventry winner Buratino, must also enter calculations.
Prediction : 1st Array 2nd Jamess Delight 3rd Hand Jive

EXPENSIVE QUEEN may have finished fifth in Listed company at Sandown last time out, but the form of that race looks very strong and a mark of 82 could prove lenient on her nursery debut. She is narrowly preferred to Lady Wulfrun, who got off the mark with a determined success over C&D last week. Buttercross Flyer and Crocus Time are key players on the form they have shown as well.
Prediction : 1st Expensive Queen 2nd Lady Wulfrun 3rd Crocus Time

Greysful Storm ran very well when second over 1m4f at Ascot last time and the winner of that race has since franked the form by running with credit in Listed company subsequently, but upped 2lb in the ratings, she may be vulnerable to some better-treated rivals such as MISTRESSOFILLUSION. Ralph Beckett's filly made a mockery of her opening handicap mark over 1m4f at Kempton on her previous outing and she appears likely to defy a 5lb rise. Hat-trick seeking Night Sparkle should also be taken seriously.
Prediction : 1st Mistressofillusion 2nd Greysful Storm 3rd Night Sparkle

BARROLO has been an ultra-consistent performer in handicap company this term and another bold bid can be expected. Grant Tuer's charge won more cosily than the neck winning distance would suggest at Musselburgh and this step up in trip could squeeze out more improvement. Bailar Contigo is feared most after being just touched off over 1m1f at Lingfield last time, while Leitrim Rock can get involved on his handicap bow.
Prediction : 1st Barrolo 2nd Bailar Contigo 3rd Leitrim Rock

LADY WORMSLEY has seldom run a bad race in her career and was a game winner when shedding the maiden tag over this distance at Doncaster last time. Despite winning by just a neck on that occasion, a 2lb rise may not be enough to stop her on an upward trajectory. Astronomica also won on her previous outing over 1m at Leicester and is likely to enter calculations along with Victoria Falls.
Prediction : 1st Lady Wormsley 2nd Astronomica 3rd Victoria Falls
