UK Horse Racing Tips: Epsom Downs

The form of GET JIGGY WITH IT's recent Goodwood third took a timely boost when the winner went on to finish second in a Group 2 at Deauville next time and she might prove tough to beat if running to a similar level today. Daymer Bay hit the woodwork at Doncaster last month and he should be on the premises along with Crimson Spirit, whose pedigree would suggest he ought to appreciate this step up in trip.
Prediction : 1st Get Jiggy With It 2nd Daymer Bay 3rd Crimson Spirit

WILD LION posted a solid fourth off this mark in a warm 0-105 handicap at York last month and The Last Lion gelding looks well capable in these calmer waters, despite having to saddle the burden of top-weight. The unexposed New Business, who was far from disgraced on his handicap bow 51 days ago, can make his presence felt from a 1lb lower mark. G'daay is fancied to chase the pair home ahead of Chartwell House.
Prediction : 1st Wild Lion 2nd New Business 3rd Gdaay

Having landed this contest in 2021, CAPTAIN HADDOCK returned to finish sixth in the corresponding event 12 months ago. Heather Main's charge is 7lb lower today and his recent C&D second would suggest he might be ready to exploit a sliding handicap mark. Citizen General merits the utmost respect under a 5lb penalty having bolted up at Pontefract eight days ago, while the consistent Warhol is unlikely to be far away in the capable hands of Simon Walker.
Prediction : 1st Captain Haddock 2nd Citizen General 3rd Warhol

The unexposed OH SO GRAND was not disgraced, despite being a beaten favourite, on her handicap debut at Lingfield a month ago and she merits the utmost respect in a race of this nature. Ribal remains a maiden but is more than capable of going well here and may even improve for the application of first-time cheekpieces. Light Up Our Stars and Zhang Fei are others to note.
Prediction : 1st Oh So Grand 2nd Ribal 3rd Light Up Our Stars

OTAGO displayed plenty of promise when a close third over a mile at Brighton last time and he could be hard to beat off the same mark here. That said, Bowland Park has made the frame in both starts this season and could give the selection plenty to think about. English Spirit edges out Kimifive and Trais Fluors to be best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Otago 2nd Bowland Park 3rd English Spirit

Capital Guarantee has to be of interest in his bid for a hat-trick, but the three-year-old will need to find more to defy a career-high mark, while similar comments apply to the in-form Desert Falcon. With that in mind, preference is for SECRET STRENGTH, who is only 1lb higher than when scoring at Newbury in June and he caught the eye when third at Lingfield last time.
Prediction : 1st Secret Strength 2nd Capital Guarantee 3rd Desert Falcon
