UK Horse Racing Tips: Carlisle

There were plenty of positives to be gleaned from TO CHASE A DREAM's runner-up effort on his hurdles debut over C&D last month, and a similar level of performance may suffice. Letthedustsettle is entitled to improve for his sixth-placed finish at Wetherby recently and Tom Lacey's charge may appreciate this drop in distance. The five-year-old is feared most, although any market support for winning pointer Wild Grouse or dual bumper scorer Bertie's Ballet would be interesting.
Prediction : 1st To Chase A Dream 2nd Letthedustsettle 3rd Wild Grouse

Sail Away looked better than ever when making all over 3m at Ayr in April. However, the drop in trip to 2m is an obvious concern and Dan Skelton's charge may have his work cut out in conceding 3lb to Betfair Hurdle winner AUCUNRISQUE. The son of No Risk At All has some smart chase form in the book over this distance and makes most appeal. Last month's C&D victor Nells Son shouldn't be far away either.
Prediction : 1st Aucunrisque 2nd Sail Away 3rd Nells Son

Two-time hurdle winner ALL THE GLORY has seen her rating drop after recent defeats in novice company and the Jonjo O'Neill-trained mare is fancied to capitalise on her handicap bow. Spot On Soph has been in good form in this sphere of late, although she isn't certain to prove as effective now dropping in trip, so a bigger threat may emerge from Inspiratrice, who is reverting to hurdles after a spin over fences at Worcester last month.
Prediction : 1st All The Glory 2nd Inspiratrice 3rd Spot On Soph

Glory And Honour could go well after a second over 2m here last month and he will try to put his race-fitness to good use against CREBILLY. Jonjo O'Neill's six-year-old won two of his five starts over hurdles with the latest over this trip and, as he is bred to be just as effective over fences, he may be able to give weight away all round. French import Inedit Star is interesting and well worth a market check.
Prediction : 1st Crebilly 2nd Glory And Honour 3rd Inedit Star

Kingston Bridge is the only course winner here having scored over this trip in March. HAVEANOTHERGOFLO is narrowly preferred, though, in the hope a wind operation will see him find some improvement and, although he remains a maiden over hurdles, he is potentially well weighted here. Boomslang is another to consider, though he needs to bounce back after pulling up at Perth in June.
Prediction : 1st Haveanothergoflo 2nd Kingston Bridge 3rd Boomslang

HELLO JUDGE looked to be value for more than the winning margin when showing a determined attitude to score narrowly over C&D last month. A 4lb rise for that success could prove lenient, and he can uphold form with Jet Legs (fourth), who has over six lengths to make up and has a better record over longer distances. A winner of his last three starts over hurdles, William Of York must be of interest too.
Prediction : 1st Hello Judge 2nd William Of York 3rd Jet Legs

The Jonjo O'Neill stable has started the season well, and HIGHLANDS LEGACY must hold every chance if building on a promising debut effort at Ffos Las when keeping on late for second. The son of Kayf Tara is narrowly preferred to point-to-point recruit Iorangi De L'isle, who is related to multiple winners under Rules and hails from a stable which knows how to ready one. Forged Well is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Highlands Legacy 2nd Iorangi De Lisle 3rd Forged Well
