UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

Moonlit Peter showed enough ability on her debut when finishing fourth at Huntingdon to suggest she will have a race of this nature well within her compass soon, but she could come out second best to FOLLOWANGO. Evan Williams' bumper winner took a step forward from her debut over hurdles to fill the runner-up spot at Chepstow over 2m last time and she was strong at the finish that day, suggesting this step up in trip could bring out the improvement required for her to go one better. Ballygelly completes the shortlist in a first-time tongue-tie.
Prediction : 1st Followango 2nd Moonlit Potter 3rd Ballygelly

Last-time-out winners BE AWARE and Dominic's Fault look the standouts in this contest, with a slight preference for the former. Dan Skelton's gelding struck on his debut by just over two lengths at Newbury and, with any amount of improvement to come, he can make it two out of two. As for the latter, he put his previous mishap at Aintree last year well behind him when getting up in the dying strides at Leicester on his latest outing and he could have more to offer. Intrepide Sud is another to consider on his hurdles debut.
Prediction : 1st Be Aware 2nd Dominics Fault 3rd Intrepide Sud

MOVETHECHAINS comfortably secured victory by seven lengths in this grade over C&D last month and he was hit with a 9lb rise for that success. Considering his superiority over his rivals that day, he could be the one to beat again. Jubilee Express was well beaten in third at Exeter last time, but he has been dropped 1lb for that and that could bring him into contention. Of the remainder, Grove Road makes the most appeal after his third at Uttoxeter.
Prediction : 1st Movethechains 2nd Jubilee Express 3rd Grove Road

A sedate gallop proved no barrier for MAJOR FORTUNE, who stayed on well to complete a double at Hereford last month. There looks to be more to come from Dan Skelton's gelding and he could make light work of a 6lb rise in the ratings. The returning Bampton Star is a potential fly in the ointment on his handicap bow, as a mark of 85 looks workable judged on last season's efforts in defeat, while Barncroft also makes some appeal now upped in trip.
Prediction : 1st Major Fortune 2nd Bampton Star 3rd Barncroft

A 3lb rise in the handicap for last month's Chepstow scorer Kingofthewest is unlikely to prevent a bold follow-up bid, with this extra yardage appearing in the eight-year-old's favour. However, the stoutly-bred CLONAKILTY has been largely campaigned over two miles and he could unlock enough improvement on this rise in distance to open his account in this sphere. Olly Murphy's inmate edges the vote, with fellow in-form rivals Grizzly James and Couldbeaweapon also entering the reckoning.
Prediction : 1st Clonakilty 2nd Kingofthewest 3rd Grizzly James

A subsequent wind procedure may have done JUST OVER LAND the world of good having faltered into fourth over an extended 2m3f at Chepstow in November. A return to 2m in this contest looks ideal and a breakthrough could be on the horizon for Sam Thomas' charge. Although the hat-trick seeking Goguenard is now 8lb higher than his most recent victory at Catterick, the eight-year-old still warrants respect, while any market support for handicap debutant My Friend Sean would be interesting.
Prediction : 1st Just Over Land 2nd Goguenard 3rd My Friend Sean
