UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

Girl From Italy was denied in her hat-trick bid by Finn Russell when the pair met at Wolverhampton last time and it would be no surprise if the latter were able to confirm the form. Storymaker has been knocking on the door recently and is capable of a decent showing, but the vote goes to DAVID'S DIVA. Rod Millman's filly makes her handicap debut following a couple of promising efforts and she appears open to the most amount of improvement in the contest.
Prediction : 1st Davids Diva 2nd Finn Russell 3rd Storymaker

BIG ZOU is expected to have learnt plenty from his racecourse bow when finishing fourth at Chelmsford last month and Tom Clover's gelding makes plenty of appeal in what appears to be a winnable race on paper. Battle Of Omdurman stays further than a mile and may be ridden positively to take full advantage, while others to note include Rich Harry and newcomer See That Storm.
Prediction : 1st Big Zou 2nd Battle Of Omdurman 3rd Rich Harry

DASHING DARCEY could be forgiven his debut effort when pulled up early on at Wolverhampton and the son of Muhaarar has since run with credit to fill the runner-up spot at Newcastle. With the likelihood of improvement to come, Roger Varian's colt gets the vote to go one better. Belcamo has to be respected after finishing third on his first start at Kempton, with Toromoro appealing most of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Dashing Darcey 2nd Belcamo 3rd Toromoro

A competitive heat sees a chance taken on ROGUE ROSIE, who looks to be on a very tempting mark having been dropped a further 2lb in the ratings for her defeat over 5f at Wolverhampton last time. Tom Clover's charge was slowly into stride on that occasion so she could have finished closer. The Liegeman made a pleasing start to his handicap career when beaten a length over 5f at Newcastle last month and he looks primed to offer a bold bid off the same mark, while last-time-out winner Torvar is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Rogue Rosie 2nd The Liegeman 3rd Torvar

Light Speed arrives here seeking a hat-trick on his handicap bow for the powerful combination of Andrew Balding and Oisin Murphy, but this opening mark of 80 leaves little room for error. Therefore, the nod goes to ROMILDA, who was only beaten a little over a length over the extended 1m1f at Wolverhampton despite being denied a clear run towards the latter stages. The consistent Tiger Beetle should also be on the scene, while Enough Already is also worthy of consideration.
Prediction : 1st Romilda 2nd Light Speed 3rd Tiger Beetle

STAR OF ST LOUIS has been a model of consistency of late and he looks primed to offer another bold bid. Matt Crawley's charge was beaten just a length over the extended 1m1f at Wolverhampton last month and, off the same mark, he could be difficult to peg back. Having won over 1m2f at Chelmsford last time, Crazy Maisie rates as the biggest danger ahead of Star Of Epsom.
Prediction : 1st Star Of St Louis 2nd Crazy Maisie 3rd Star Of Epsom

SEA ME DANCE returned to winning ways over 1m6f at Wolverhampton last month and this step up in trip could help her to defy a 3lb rise in the ratings. Artisan Dancer chased home the selection on that occasion and is likely to be in the mix once again, while Fair Dinkum and Kalamity Kitty are the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Sea Me Dance 2nd Artisan Dancer 3rd Fair Dinkum

SIXTIES CHIC was only beaten a head over 7f here 10 days ago and that followed a success over this trip at Wolverhampton. With that in mind, the unexposed three-year-old merits the utmost respect down in distance at this level. Mumayaz has been knocking hard on the door of late and cannot be discounted, while Fianian should not be underestimated on his handicap debut.
Prediction : 1st Sixties Chic 2nd Mumayaz 3rd Fianian
