UK Horse Racing Tips: Southwell

The new training partnership of Dr Richard Newland and Jamie Insole got off to a flying start earlier in the week and it would come as no surprise to see ROSTELLO score for them here. An experienced chaser, the selection showed he retains enthusiasm with a gallant success at Hexham last month and is a must for consideration off just 5lb higher. Sedgefield winner Largy Nights is respected along with Concrete King.
Prediction : 1st Rostello 2nd Largy Nights 3rd Concrete King

Arlo, Couldbeaweapon and Gardener reached a comparable level over hurdles and are evenly matched as they set out to enhance their profiles over fences. However, given the probability of testing ground being the order of the day, SECRET PLAN could take advantage of the small amount of weight he receives from his three rivals. Having posted his best effort over timber on heavy, the Evan Williams-trained gelding is set to encounter ideal conditions and is fancied to make a winning start in this discipline.
Prediction : 1st Secret Plan 2nd Arlo 3rd Couldbeaweapon

Expensive purchases Western Harmony and CASTLE IVERS both captured the imagination when they both won at the same Ballindenisk point-to-point fixture in May. While the former is respected on debut for the Nicky Henderson yard, the latter has an equal amount of scope to develop under Rules and shades preference after registering a slightly quicker time between the flags. Hereford bumper winner Tap N Go Leo shoulders a 7lb penalty, so Shuile Warrior is earmarked for third spot on his racecourse bow.
Prediction : 1st Castle Ivers 2nd Western Harmony 3rd Shuile Warrior

Trainer Nicky Henderson will be disappointed if the well-bred BHALOO doesn't open his account over timber. The bumper winner chased home a couple of useful prospects on his hurdling bow last month and rates the one they all have to beat on that form. Colonel Whizz, who hit the woodwork at Fakenham, is the main danger. Stardhem didn't show much on his sole bumper start, but he is bred to appreciate the switch to hurdles.
Prediction : 1st Bhaloo 2nd Colonel Whizz 3rd Stardhem

SUPREMELY WEST was able to comprehensively defy a penalty when winning at Sedgefield last month and the progressive son of Westerner might be a tough nut to crack once again. That said, Bugise Seagull and Thank You Blue both made successful hurdling debuts last time so they must be respected in receipt of 4lb from the selection. High Treason completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Supremely West 2nd Bugise Seagull 3rd Thank You Blue

OAKLEY DANCER found it difficult getting through the heavy ground at Leicester last month, although she still performed with credit, and arguably sets the standard on the form of her commanding successes at Chepstow and Newton Abbot. Walk Of No Shame may be winless since February but she has been in consistent form of late, while Shelikesthelights is capable on her day.
Prediction : 1st Oakley Dancer 2nd Walk Of No Shame 3rd Shelikesthelights

A respectable third on each of his two starts in maiden hurdles, GLOBE PLAYER looks to have a been given a workable mark on his handicap debut as he looks to get off the mark. The four-year-old seems to have conditions in his favour and may have too much for Swinging London and Realisation, who hasn't been able to replicate the form of her bumper success at Bangor last October in two starts over timber this season.
Prediction : 1st Globe Player 2nd Swinging London 3rd Realisation
