UK Horse Racing Tips: Wincanton

Stanley Pincombe goes well for Molly Landau and with the rider's 7lb allowance a handy asset, this three-time hurdles winner holds solid claims. So does Regal Renaissance, who was comfortably on top when landing a mares' handicap at Chepstow, with Archie Jones' claim effectively cancelling out the 7lb penalty. However, BANTEER surely has more to offer than he managed at Doncaster and given his previous third behind subsequent Dovecote winner Lump Sum here reads particularly well, this longer trip can prompt further progress from the Paul Nicholls-trained handicap debutant.
Prediction : 1st Banteer 2nd Stanley Pincombe 3rd Regal Renaissance

The hat-trick seeking Begin The Luck posted a wide-margin Stratford success when last seen and is noteworthy back on a right-handed track on debut for a new yard, while previous course winner Hatos is respected going back up in trip with a first-time visor added. However, preference is for SHERBORNE, who is also a C&D winner but seems more suited to this sort of distance than his two main rivals. The state of the ground has also come up trumps for the selection and a big run is expected off just 5lb above his last winning mark.
Prediction : 1st Sherborne 2nd Begin The Luck 3rd Hatos

TEQUILA BLAZE had plenty left in the locker when scoring at Southwell last month and she is hardly overburdened, despite stepping up in class, off a 7lb higher mark. The manner of that success created the impression the 10-year-old is more than capable of holding her own back at this sort of level and another big run is expected. Just Go For It wasn't hard pressed to score over 2m3f at Taunton and is feared as a potential improver over this longer distance. Sabrina and Chloe's Court complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Tequila Blaze 2nd Just Go For It 3rd Sabrina

JUNIPER beat Whatsdastory (second) and stablemate Lilith (fell three out when weakening) when returning from a 133-day break to bolt up over an extended 2m5f at Taunton, and she has only been put up 4lb. Anthony Honeyball's mare is fairly unexposed for her age and looks the one to beat again. Touchy Feely had excuses when pulled up at Kempton in November and she would be foolish to dismiss on only her second chase start off the same rating.
Prediction : 1st Juniper 2nd Touchy Feely 3rd Whatsdastory

Point-to-point winner Maryollie makes her debut under Rules after changing hands for 45,000 pounds last month and it would be no surprise to see her get into contention. However, the vote goes to DENEMETHY, who ran too badly to be true on his hurdling bow at Chepstow and has since undergone wind surgery. Fergal O'Brien has his string in good order at present and he could add another to the tally. Rangatira Jack is noted after his fourth over track and trip.
Prediction : 1st Denemethy 2nd Maryollie 3rd Rangatira Jack

DON'T TELL SU looks to have been found the perfect opportunity to open his account over hurdles. The Paul Nicholls-trained six-year-old has filled the frame on all three outings in this discipline and, with his opposition having plenty to prove, he's hard to oppose. Zoeman offered something to work with on his fifth-placed return at Ludlow last month. He may give the selection most to think about, ahead of Jacobs Acre.
Prediction : 1st Dont Tell Su 2nd Zoeman 3rd Jacobs Acre

Johannes and Plaisir Des Flos are sure to have their supporters having created a fine impression on their respective handicap bow victories at Taunton and Sedgefield, but they may play second fiddle to CLINTON LANE. Mark Gillard's charge toppled a 111-rated rival when opening his account in a maiden hurdle at Fontwell last week. A wind procedure appeared to unlock his true potential that day and the six-year-old is fancied to defy his penalty.
Prediction : 1st Clinton Lane 2nd Johannes 3rd Plaisir Des Flos
