UK Horse Racing Tips: Newmarket

MOUNTAIN BREEZE, a three-parts sister to the top-class Pinatubo, created a big impression when winning well on her debut over 5f here a couple of weeks ago. Charlie Appleby's filly is entitled to improve for that experience and is hard to oppose, despite carrying a 5lb penalty. Patsy Snugfit was far from disgraced on her racecourse bow at Windsor and should not be discounted. Flaming Stone is arguably the most eye-catching newcomer, being closely related to the Group 2 winner Angel Power.
Prediction : 1st Mountain Breeze 2nd Patsy Snugfit 3rd Flaming Stone

SERENE SERAPH failed to fire when dropped to 6f in Listed company on her final start as a juvenile, but her previous form is very encouraging and the daughter of Blue Point can be given another chance on her return. Dashing Darcey has put in two encouraging efforts in defeat in recent weeks and is likely to be in the mix once again, while Love Billy Boy and So Logical complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Serene Seraph 2nd Dashing Darcey 3rd Love Billy Boy

Divine Libra has to be of interest following his decisive victory over 7f at Chester 10 days ago, although marginal preference is for GORAK. Charlie Fellowes' gelding caught the eye when fourth over C&D on his seasonal return a month ago and he makes plenty of appeal off a 2lb lower mark. Summerghand's run at York this week can be written off as he was badly hampered early on.
Prediction : 1st Gorak 2nd Divine Libra 3rd Summerghand

After failing to justify strong market support over 7f at Haydock last Saturday, ZOZIMUS can gain some compensation. David O'Meara's charge was slowly away when fourth on that occasion and with a better start here, along with the extra yardage being a positive, he should go well. Aalto finished just under a length in front of the selection over C&D earlier this month and he is feared most. Hopeful and Signcastle City are also respected.
Prediction : 1st Zozimus 2nd Aalto 3rd Hopeful

PRECIOUS JEWEL showed a very likeable attitude when second on her racecourse debut here and she can get off the mark at the second time of asking. This daughter of Dubawi was well beaten by an exciting filly with big race entries on that occasion over 1m2f and this step up in trip can bring about plenty of improvement. Incensed can give the selection most to think about following a running-on third over 1m at Kempton on her debut, while Lake Teo is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Precious Jewel 2nd Incensed 3rd Lake Teo

ALRAZEEN was too keen for his own good when finishing third in a tactically-run affair over an extended 1m4f at Newcastle in March and, off an unchanged mark dropping in trip, Gay Kelleway's charge gets a tentative vote to return to winning ways. Alhattan has shown signs of inexperience en route to being turned over at short odds on her last couple of starts but, judging by the style of her debut victory, her connections will be disappointed if a mark of 78 winds up being her ceiling. Prometeo completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Alrazeen 2nd Alhattan 3rd Prometeo

TIRIAC scored with the minimum of fuss when the cheekpieces (retained) were reapplied over 6f at Windsor earlier this month, and he can defy an 8lb rise to send his supporters home smiling. Change Sings was the subject of market weakness when posting a lacklustre effort over 5f at Ascot on his seasonal reappearance but, eased 2lb with that run under his belt, an improved showing is likely. Hierarchy also commands attention.
Prediction : 1st Tiriac 2nd Change Sings 3rd Hierarchy
