UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

So Chic kept on well to hit the frame over a mile here last month and though she's a dual winner at this trip, John Long's filly might need a good pace to aim at back over 7f. With that in mind, the vote goes to MAURICES MEN, who posted a career-best performance when narrowly denied at Kempton 17 days ago. First-time cheekpieces could elicit further improvement, with the booking of Hollie Doyle a positive one. Others to note include Handel and Regal Glory.
Prediction : 1st Maurices Men 2nd So Chic 3rd Handel

Queen Of Zafeen defeated a subsequent winner on her racecourse debut and she merits the utmost respect, despite this being tougher under a 7lb penalty. KINAKO MOCHI might not have been seen since filling the runner-up spot at Kempton on her first career start in June, but she is likely to have strengthened up in recent months and breeding suggests the step up in trip will suit. Spiritual Pursuit can chase the pair home, while Heavenly Fire warrants closer inspection ahead of her racecourse bow.
Prediction : 1st Kinako Mochi 2nd Queen Of Zafeen 3rd Spiritual Pursuit

BOSH has yet to conclusively prove his stamina at this trip, but the way in which he kept on to score over 6f at Chelmsford would suggest it might eke out further improvement from the son of Profitable. Similarly, Aljari ought to relish the greater test of stamina having rattled home for third at Kempton last time and is feared most, while Hieronymus appeals most of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Bosh 2nd Aljari 3rd Hieronymus

RISING FORCE's stamina appeared stretched when weakening into third over 1m2f here last time out. The Mehmas gelding should appreciate this return to a mile and he looks to have been found a suitable opportunity to get back on the scoresheet. Handicap debutant Mr Influence might be the one to give the selection most to think about, ahead of Hatadora and Eccentric.
Prediction : 1st Rising Force 2nd Mr Influence 3rd Hatadora

BAILEYS WARRIOR posted yet another creditable effort in defeat when a close-up second at Kempton in late January and a 1lb rise in the handicap doesn't appear insurmountable. A similar profile is displayed by fellow in-form rival Foinix, who looks an obvious danger racing off the same mark as his recent runner-up effort over C&D. New York Bay will need to settle better to see out this trip, so Triple Nickle may emerge as a bigger threat.
Prediction : 1st Baileys Warrior 2nd Foinix 3rd Triple Nickle

ENOUGH ALREADY won over this course and distance from a 4lb lower mark last May and, with Oisin Murphy an eye-catching jockey booking, everything is in place for another bold showing from the eight-year-old after a near miss at Kempton 12 days ago. Just a short head separated Arctician (second) and Sandy Paradise (third) when they took the minor honours in a 7f handicap here last month and they can fill similar roles here, with this longer trip not expected to be an issue.
Prediction : 1st Enough Already 2nd Arctician 3rd Sandy Paradise

There is very little to split the likes of Level Up (winner), Night On Earth (second) and HARB (third) based on a recent clash over C&D. However, the last-named may be able to turn around the form of last month's encounter with his old rivals on the revised terms. A previous course and distance winner off a 3lb higher mark, the selection tends to go well for Shane Kelly and the partnership can provide a bit of value in a wide-open sprint handicap.
Prediction : 1st Harb 2nd Level Up 3rd Night On Earth
