UK Horse Racing Tips: Warwick

This is wide open and not too many can confidently be ruled out. However, CLARAROSE showed a bit more promise when second over 2m4f at Fakenham last month and looks worth chancing, given she is still learning her trade and runs off the same mark. Midnight Gold's Southwell success reads well in the context of this race and she rates the biggest threat to the selection off just 6lb higher. Grain Of Hope and After Many Days are just a couple of others to monitor in the betting.
Prediction : 1st Clararose 2nd Midnight Gold 3rd Grain Of Hope

AVAKATE has shown stacks of promise in bumpers, both on these shores and in Ireland, and is introduced to hurdling at a very realistic level. The Alan King-trained gelding is readily suggested as the most notable contender, although there should be more to come from Dan Skelton stablemates Hot Fizzy Lizzy and Get Sky High, especially the former who showed ability at Stratford when last seen and can be fancied to take a step forward here.
Prediction : 1st Avakate 2nd Hot Fizzy Lizzy 3rd Get Sky High

IRISH LULLABY, who reached a mark of 96 on the Flat in Ireland, is a highly-notable type now he has switched codes and, having shown distinct promise on his hurdles debut at Market Rasen in late March, the son of Nathaniel is a stand out selection in this company. Open to any amount of improvement, the five-year-old could have too much for this opposition. Idylle Sauvage is feared most, although Barra Blue can be fancied to show up well despite this being her hurdles debut.
Prediction : 1st Irish Lullaby 2nd Idylle Sauvage 3rd Barra Blue

FISTON DE BECON scored in comfortable fashion to complete a double at Hereford last month and a 5lb rise for that victory looks lenient. With the Olly Murphy yard bang in form, he could prove very hard to beat, with his main threat possibly being Gitche Gumee, who sports first-time cheekpieces after his third at Doncaster off a 3lb higher mark in December. Of the remainder, Onewayortother makes the most appeal on his handicap/chase debut.
Prediction : 1st Fiston De Becon 2nd Gitche Gumee 3rd Onewayortother

God's Own Getaway did what was required of him in this grade when scoring at Southwell last time and he is likely to be on the premises once again off a 6lb higher rating. However, he could come out second best to TRAPISTA, who may have been worth more for his victory than the winning margin suggests over 2m at Hereford last month and an 8lb rise might not be enough to halt him. The seven-year-old should have no issues with this longer trip and he looks the one to beat. Last-time-out winner American Gerry completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Trapista 2nd Gods Own Getaway 3rd American Gerry

Jeudidee has a 100 per cent record here after winning a bumper last year and, with two wins from four starts over hurdles, he could get involved in the finish. Davidoc took his maiden at Plumpton on his first start after wind surgery and looks reasonably treated off a mark of 108, but ISABELLA BEE could be worth another chance. Out-gunned at Listed level in December, the return to handicap company may see her get back to winning ways after two victories at Uttoxeter and one at Taunton last autumn.
Prediction : 1st Isabella Bee 2nd Jeudidee 3rd Davidoc

Trainer Kayley Woollacott won this race in 2021 and 2022 and it will be interesting to see if Caspers Court comes in for any market support. He has won four times off higher marks and cannot be discounted, but HE IS A CRACKER could be the one to side with despite his long absence. An easy winner over fences in September, he is better handicapped over hurdles and has gone well fresh before, which may be all he needs. Just Jess is another to consider for the in-form Sue Smith stable.
Prediction : 1st He Is A Cracker 2nd Caspers Court 3rd Just Jess
