UK Horse Racing Tips: Ffos Las

TOPO CHICO is two out of two since joining the David Loughnane yard, with the most recent of those victories coming at Lingfield. She now has to compete off a 9lb higher rating, which is unlikely to stop her. The main threat might be Brazen Idol, who was only touched off by a nose at Goodwood last time, while Parisiac can beat Willingly home for third after his fourth at Bath.
Prediction : 1st Topo Chico 2nd Brazen Idol 3rd Parisiac

COUNT PALATINE was only denied by a head when surging late at Newbury last time and he was raised 3lb for that display. The son of Profitable could take another step forward to strike here under Sean Levey. Johnny Johnson was third at Newmarket on his nursery bow and looks sure to go well once more, while any market support for Alnoory Star would be of interest.
Prediction : 1st Count Palatine 2nd Johnny Johnson 3rd Alnoory Star

BLUE DAY showed his inexperience when green on debut at Newbury, but he still managed to grab fourth. The son of Blue Point is likely to have any amount of improvement to come, so he could prove hard to beat. Avoriaz had a promising debut of his own at Salisbury and could also enter the reckoning, along with the 170,00-euro purchase Manhattan Mirage on debut.
Prediction : 1st Blue Day 2nd Avoriaz 3rd Manhattan Mirage

SYLLABUS and Insanity look the pair to concentrate on and, while the latter may improve now that he has been gelded, the former has shown stronger form and has the potential to find more now that a tongue-tie and cheekpieces are applied. The step up in trip should also be fine this son of Sea The Stars, who seemed to handle cut in the ground last time out. Dance Time appeals most from the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Syllabus 2nd Insanity 3rd Dance Time

OWENS LAD had plenty in hand when he crossed the line in front at Carlisle nine days ago and is hard to oppose under a 5lb penalty. His second in a slightly deeper race two starts ago only enhances his claims and another big run can be expected. Fellow last-time-out winners Lailah and She's A Mirage are feared most, although Gilbert is not ruled out this level.
Prediction : 1st Owens Lad 2nd Lailah 3rd Shes A Mirage

Runner-up on her last two starts, KYNSA looks the type to progress further and she can go one better stepping up in distance. Although rated 3lb higher than her latest outing, the three-year-old is fancied to get the better of recent C&D winner City Escape, who scored off 3lb lower last month. Change Of Fortune also merits consideration following a decent second at Windsor most recently.
Prediction : 1st Kynsa 2nd City Escape 3rd Change Of Fortune

This could go the way of the in-form TIN FANDANGO, who kept on to finish second over this trip at Newbury in July. A 1lb raised mark may not be enough to hold him back dropping in class and he is fancied to score here. Easter Icon was a fair third over 2m1f at Pontefract last month and is next best, while Berkshire Sundance completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Tin Fandango 2nd Easter Icon 3rd Berkshire Sundance
