UK Horse Racing Tips: Huntingdon

An impressive winner when last seen in a bumper at Ludlow in April, NORMAN FLETCHER could be a nice prospect in the making for the Nigel Twiston-Davies team as he makes his hurdles debut. Conditions look to be in his favour and he could have too much for Hexham scorer Eagle Of The Glen, who has a 7lb penalty to overcome. Largy Ray is another to consider on his first run for new connections after winning at Kilbeggan in August.
Prediction : 1st Norman Fletcher 2nd Eagle Of The Glen 3rd Largy Ray

LARGY NIGHTS may be very light raced for his age, but he certainly has ability and the form of his penultimate second over C&D last December bodes well in this context. Charlie Longsdon's charge has gone well fresh in the past and he is narrowly preferred to Great D'Ange, who had Tedwin Hills (third) less than three lengths behind when scoring at Market Rasen last month. The Wise Traveller hasn't shown much in two starts over fences, but his form over the smaller obstacles entitles him to the utmost respect.
Prediction : 1st Largy Nights 2nd Great DAnge 3rd Tedwin Hills

KAY TARA TARA may have been well beaten when last seen contesting a Grade 2 bumper at Aintree in April, but the fact she was thought good enough to compete at that level says a lot. The daughter of Kayf Tara sets a decent standard on form, and it may be that the more experienced Noonie gives her the most to think about after four starts in this sphere. Strong Belle has the potential to improve for the step up in trip and cannot be ruled out.
Prediction : 1st Kay Tara Tara 2nd Noonie 3rd Strong Belle

Boom Boom was too bad to be true when pulling up on his handicap debut at Worcester in May and Nicky Henderson's charge may prove more competitive on his chase bow after a 162-day break. However, GOLD LINK makes slightly more appeal given his experience over fences. The seven-year-old has remained in good heart since scoring off 7lb lower at Stratford in July and may take some stopping if continuing in the same vein of form. Enemenemynemo could prove dangerous if allowed an easy lead and completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Gold Link 2nd Boom Boom 3rd Enemenemynemo

ENTHUSED escapes a penalty for landing a conditional jockeys' event at Ludlow on Wednesday and the gelded son of Zoffany is fancied to land a quick-fire double off the same rating here. Parc D'amour likely has races in him off his current rating and merits respect for the in-form Kim Bailey yard. The six-year-old may give the selection most to think about, ahead of John Betjeman, who finished a respectable fifth on the Flat at Bath last month.
Prediction : 1st Enthused 2nd Parc Damour 3rd John Betjeman

Last month's Hexham winner Finalshot only went up 4lb for that success and the veteran should give another good account of himself. Magic Mike was behind in third that day and franked the form when subsequently triumphing at Southwell. The pair, however, are taking on with GREAT SAMOURAI. The selection is making his chase/handicap debut off what looks a fair mark and the six-year-old may take this en route to better things for the Dan Skelton team.
Prediction : 1st Great Samourai 2nd Finalshot 3rd Magic Mike
