UK Horse Racing Tips: Newton Abbot

FATHER OF JAZZ sets a lofty standard with a rating of 132 after his comfortable success at Aintree in June and he could potentially have a lot more improvement in him for the James Owen stable. The six-year-old looks very difficult to oppose in this. Carrigeen Kampala is likely to be the one to chase him home after her Stratford second, while Ar El Bee looks the most interesting of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Father Of Jazz 2nd Carrigeen Kampala 3rd Ar El Bee

TIME FLIES BY was last seen in December when scoring by two lengths at Ffos Las over the smaller obstacles and he now returns to the chasing ranks, where he fell on his only start to date. The son of Getaway could prove tough to stop if he has a clean round on this occasion, with only two rivals to beat. Valentino Dancer looks the best of those after his second at Newton Abbot in this grade, while Shot Tower needs to find significant improvement to get involved.
Prediction : 1st Time Flies By 2nd Valentino Dancer 3rd Shot Tower

It's hard to get away from the claims of CHIEF BLACK ROBE, who put in a bold display to finish fourth in the Summer Plate at Market Rasen on his latest outing and he was dropped 1lb for that effort. The seven-year-old will appreciate this drop in grade and he can strike. Last-time-out victor Mr Mafia can give him the most to do, as long as the step back in trip doesn't hinder his chances too much. Reserve Tank didn't appear to get home last time and could be forgiven for that to beat Dan's Chosen home for third.
Prediction : 1st Chief Black Robe 2nd Mr Mafia 3rd Reserve Tank

An easy winner over C&D the last twice in novice hurdles, SONGO could be very well treated off a mark of 120 on his handicap debut. Harry Cobden retains the ride and he should have too much for Caius Marcius, who scored over C&D in July. Sebastopol is intriguing on his return to hurdles and he can have a say, along with Fix At All.
Prediction : 1st Songo 2nd Caius Marcius 3rd Sebastopol

A taking winner at Bangor last time out, EL BORRACHO must hold every chance of following up and carrying on his terrific record in this sphere. The eight-year-old is preferred to Stepney Causeway, who was a determined winner over C&D last time out, as well as the capable Blueberry Wine. Romanor's last victory came over C&D in September 2022 and he cannot be ruled out either.
Prediction : 1st El Borracho 2nd Stepney Causeway 3rd Blueberry Wine

A winner here the last twice, including over C&D last time out, SASSIFIED continues to go from strength to strength and a career-high mark of 90 may not be enough to stop him going in again. Not outside the first two on any on his last three starts, Getaway Tom looks to his main danger, ahead of C&D winner Karannelle.
Prediction : 1st Sassified 2nd Getaway Tom 3rd Karannelle
