Tuesday Horse Racing Tips from Steve Ryder

This looks a competitive 0-105 handicap chase but preference goes to HASTON CLERMONT (best priced at 4/1) who has won his previous two starts over this trip. The Noel Williams trained seven-year-old looked outpaced over 2m3½f on his chasing debut on his reappearance before winning at Lingfield over 2m7½f off a mark of 91.

Haston Clermont defied a 5lb rise to win by 1 ¾ lengths at Wincanton last time on heavy ground over 3m1f and he looks worthy of a 6lb rise from the handicapper. He is still unexposed at this trip and he should run well under regular rider Jonny Burke. 

The James Ewart trained BRAYHILL (best priced at 15/2) defied a 359 day break to win last time and he should hold strong claims off a 3lb higher mark. The nine-year-old won on his return last season at Kelso off a mark of 115 before doing the same again this year off a mark of 117 over 2m4f at this course.

Brayhill won by 1 ¼ lengths that day staying on well at the finish despite Brian Hughes losing an iron shaping like this step up in trip to 2m7½f would suit. He won on his first start after a wind operation last time and should run well off only a 3lb higher mark.

The Scott Dixon trained CREATE (best priced at 11/2) has shown her best form at this track and a return to Southwell will suit her well. The four-year-old won by 1 ¾ lengths over a mile here on her debut despite an SP of 20/1 before finishing 2nd by a neck over 7f here in a novice race under a penalty after 208 days off the track. She slightly disappointed on her next two starts at Pontefract and Newcastle but returns following 88 days off the track back over a mile here.

Create runs here off top weight off a mark of 70 and she looks sure to run well back at this track.
