UK Horse Racing Tips: Perth

Trained by Lucinda Russell, BISHOP HILL should take all of the beating. The five-year-old has already shown an aptitude for hurdling and was last seen running well to finish a neck second over C&D last month, when she only found her stablemate Fox's Fancy too good. Granted further improvement, she has every chance of going one place better. Love That could turn out to be the main danger, providing she is none the worse for her late fall at Ayr last time out, having previously shaped well when she finished third on her stable debut at the same venue in March. Hurdle debutant Bleu Lagune could prove best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Bishop Hill 2nd Love That 3rd Bleu Lagune

After shaping with promise when finishing second on his hurdling debut at Kelso over 2m on heavy ground, GALUNGGUNG battled to a narrow success over the same distance at Hexham next time out before doubling his tally over timber 25 days ago at Bangor by three and a quarter lengths when stepped up to 2m3f. Donald McCain's charge should be hard to beat in his hat-trick bid on his chase debut. Former C&D winners Well Planted and Garde Des Champs are feared most.
Prediction : 1st Galunggung 2nd Well Planted 3rd Garde Des Champs

Plenty to consider in a wide-open race. However, BOLLIN MATILDA improved beyond all recognition last month when recording back-to-back victories in the space of 11 days, with wins at Newcastle and here. The handicapper has raised her mark by 7lb for the latest of those wins, but she is improving at a rate of knots and the hat-trick might well be on the cards. Artic Mann is generally consistent and should again be thereabouts, while the top-weight Olivers Travels is worth a second look.
Prediction : 1st Bollin Matilda 2nd Artic Mann 3rd Olivers Travels

James Bowen has an exceptional 24 per cent strike-rate at this course in the last five seasons, with eight winners from 33 rides, and he has a decent chance of adding to his impressive record here aboard EASY BUCKS. Peter Bowen's nine-year-old is back down to his last winning mark (100), when successful over this C&D in September 2022, and he could take a bit of stopping now returned to better ground. Recent Hexham second Cowboy Cooper might emerge as the biggest danger, while Euchan Falls could do best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Easy Bucks 2nd Cowboy Cooper 3rd Euchan Falls

SUPER CITIZEN won on his penultimate Rules outing at Kelso in January before struggling to land a blow behind subsequent Cheltenham Festival heroine Sine Nomine at Wetherby. He since bounced back with a 25-length success in the pointing sphere and the 10-year-old should have too much for these rivals. Shanroe Street is likely to be the main threat, with Fine Investment best of the remaining pair.
Prediction : 1st Super Citizen 2nd Shanroe Street 3rd Fine Investment

BRIDGETJOANS has stepped forward on her last couple of starts with a brace of runner-up efforts at Catterick in February and when only denied by a neck at Kelso last month. A 3lb rise seems more than fair and Simon Waugh's mare gets the vote to shed her maiden tag. Not In Kansas improved plenty to score at Musselburgh and she is respected, along with the returning Bridge Road.
Prediction : 1st Bridgetjoans 2nd Not In Kansas 3rd Bridge Road
