UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

MASHAAER was largely disappointing after finishing second in the Pretty Polly at Newmarket in May 2022, but she returns from a lengthy absence in a very weak race and she should be capable of getting off the mark as a result. On The Cards showed some promise on his debut at Wolverhampton recently and is the clear main danger, although Electric Avenue is a newcomer to note.
Prediction : 1st Mashaaer 2nd On The Cards 3rd Electric Avenue

LAURA'S BREEZE got off the mark over this trip at Wolverhampton earlier in the month and a 2lb rise may not be enough to prevent the three-year-old from going in again here. Purple Poppy has made the frame on her last couple of starts and is likely be in the mix once more, while Sixties Chic and Fly The Nest complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Lauras Breeze 2nd Purple Poppy 3rd Sixties Chic

Morning Suit is the pick of those with form after showing some ability on his debut over this distance at Kempton recently. That said, the level he sets is not very high and a chance can be taken on ARCTIC THUNDER, who lacks race experience but he is well related and cost 110,000gns as a yearling. Salaamaat and Dashing Willie are others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Arctic Thunder 2nd Morning Suit 3rd Salaamaat

Harb returns to the all-weather following a short break and he is one to note, but a fighting-fit HOLKHAM BAY gets the nod. He came agonizingly close to supplementing his Kempton success at Chelmsford two weeks ago and, despite a further 1lb rise, looks sure to be in the firing line again. Alexi Boy remains unexposed and is worthy of consideration, as is the Oisin Murphy-ridden Betweenthesticks.
Prediction : 1st Holkham Bay 2nd Harb 3rd Alexi Boy

Slow starts have certainly been hindering Fivethousandtoone and stepping up from 6f could prove a wise move, but MISTY GREY looks a much more solid option. He arrives following a narrow defeat in a conditions event at Kempton and his class may shine through now back in handicap company. Street Kid and Baldomero have both been in good form and add further spice to the race.
Prediction : 1st Misty Grey 2nd Fivethousandtoone 3rd Street Kid

Perfect Thunder has steadily been slipping down the ratings and warrants respect, as does Britannica, who has yet to get her head in front but enters handicap company for the first time now. The vote, however, goes to VICTORIA GROVE. Henry Spiller's filly only found a subsequent winner too good at Chelmsford last time and is effectively 2lb better off with Grace McEntee's claim taken into consideration.
Prediction : 1st Victoria Grove 2nd Perfect Thunder 3rd Britannica

SHOOT TO KILL enjoys it here and after a close-up third over 7f earlier this month, he has strong claims of registering a fourth Lingfield victory. Robyn Brisland's charge runs off the same mark and this extra yardage shouldn't be an issue. Tiger Beetle has solid claims of notching the hat-trick after successive wins at Wolverhampton, although a further 3lb rise may be tough to defy, while the returning Falcon Nine is worthy of a closer look.
Prediction : 1st Shoot To Kill 2nd Tiger Beetle 3rd Falcon Nine

OPERATIC ARTIST won well over the extended 1m1f at Wolverhampton earlier this month and she looks primed to offer another bold effort. Ollie Sangster's filly has been raised 3lb for that one-length success, which doesn't appear overly harsh. Measured Moments rates as the biggest danger after a good second over C&D off this mark, while King Of Scotia has been given a chance by the handicapper and could also have a say.
Prediction : 1st Operatic Artist 2nd Measured Moments 3rd King Of Scotia

A very competitive heat but a chance is taken on STAR OF LADY M, who was only just touched off at Wolverhampton last week and can go one better. David O'Meara's filly was beaten by the narrowest of margins on that occasion and having been raised just 1lb subsequently, compensation for that near-miss could await. On Edge is feared most after a sequence of wins but another 3lb rise in the ratings isn't ideal, while South Dakota Sioux should also be thereabouts.
Prediction : 1st Star Of Lady M 2nd On Edge 3rd South Dakota Sioux
