UK Horse Racing Tips: Leicester

A tentative vote goes to EY UP ITS JAZZ, who ran an fine race when second over this trip at Thirsk last week. Returning to this track is a big plus, having won here in April, and he gets the vote ahead of Ceilidh, who got off the mark in decisive fashion at Ffos Las recently and a 5lb rise looks fair. The consistent Diamondsinthesand is high on the shortlist, along with handicap debutant Solar Portrait.
Prediction : 1st Ey Up Its Jazz 2nd Ceilidh 3rd Solar Portrait

A return to soft ground looks like a big plus for WITHOUT FLAW, whose only career win came under similar conditions off a 9lb lower rating at Ffos Las in July. That was also under today's jockey Taylor Fisher, who takes off a valuable 3lb, and she could have enough to get the better of Chelmsford scorer Unico and Line Of Fire, who did it well when scoring at Brighton last time out and a mark of 71 looks workable on her handicap bow. Others to note include Happy Tears, Haumea and Marie's Secret.
Prediction : 1st Without Flaw 2nd Unico 3rd Line Of Fire

An intriguing newcomers maiden and it may pay to side with MAJED, who cost 210,000 euros in May and is from the first crop of the very talented Magna Grecia. A half-brother to American Oaks winner Rhea Moon, he is bred to be smart for his esteemed connections and may have too much for Dosman, who is bred in the purple himself as a relative of a host of Group-level performers. The Richard Hannon stable is known for readying one first time out and Flashy Apache must be monitored for market support, along with Ambiente Friendly.
Prediction : 1st Majed 2nd Dosman 3rd Flashy Apache

Buddy's Beauty was narrowly denied in her hat-trick bid when finishing runner-up at Nottingham last month and John Gallagher's filly may find that an additional 3lb rise in the ratings is enough to prevent her from regaining the winning thread today. FOUR ADAAY has been knocking on the door of late and the five-year-old could be rewarded for her consistency with a third success of the year in this contest. The downgraded Sera Dawn is also worth a second look.
Prediction : 1st Four Adaay 2nd Buddys Beauty 3rd Sera Dawn

There were plenty of positives to be taken from DOHA's staying-on third on debut over 1m at Kempton earlier this month and Ralph Beckett's filly should take all the beating if seeing out the 1m2f distance. Queen Of The Pride is another potential improver now upped in trip and may give the selection most to think about, ahead of Spring Chorus, who wasn't disgraced when beaten six lengths on her opening run at Pontefract in July.
Prediction : 1st Doha 2nd Queen Of The Pride 3rd Spring Chorus

Trainer Tony Carroll and jockey Mollie Phillips teamed up to win this last year and they are back with recent Brighton fourth Holbache, though he will need to build on that to get into the mix here. San Francisco Bay arrives in winning form after scoring easily at Lingfield but he may not be the same horse on a softer surface off 7lb higher, suggesting THORNABY PEARL could have the edge. A winner at Ripon off 3lb lower on soft ground in July, he is capable of another big run here with conditions in his favour.
Prediction : 1st Thornaby Pearl 2nd San Francisco Bay 3rd Holbache

ASTRONOMICA found the quicker going and a rise in class too much for her last time out at Newmarket when third off this mark, but the lightly-raced Belardo filly may get back to winning ways now back on a softer surface and in this grade. Clipsham Gold has won two of her three starts here and enters calculations, although her best form is on a quicker surface, while Eponina represents last season's winning trainer of this race and scored over this C&D off the same mark in 2022.
Prediction : 1st Astronomica 2nd Clipsham Gold 3rd Eponina
