UK Horse Racing Tips: Bath

ZING UP wasn't disgraced when she finished fourth on her return to action at Windsor last month and she is joint top-rated in this field with an official figure of 50. Tom Ward's filly looks well placed to get her head back in front, with her main threat possibly We're Reunited, who reached the frame over track and trip last time. Of the remainder, Glamorous Star makes the most appeal.
Prediction : 1st Zing Up 2nd Were Reunited 3rd Glamorous Star

GAP YEAR had Lady With The Lamp (third) just under a length behind when he filled the runner-up spot on his debut at Windsor last month and he should have plenty more to offer. With normal improvement, the son of Elzaam could prove very difficult to beat. Lady With The Lamp is likely to prove the main threat on only her second start, while Salisbury second Mister Mcgregor is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Gap Year 2nd Lady With The Lamp 3rd Mister Mcgregor

Buddy's Beauty was in fine form when she was last seen in August last year, finishing a short-head second at Nottingham when seeking a hat-trick. If she returns in the same heart, she would have to be taken seriously. However, the vote goes to BEYOND EQUAL, who showed a lot more in a first-time visor at Chepstow and he ought to go close off the same rating. Recent course winner Symbol of Hope holds an obvious chance too.
Prediction : 1st Beyond Equal 2nd Buddys Beauty 3rd Symbol of Hope

TARITINO struck the woodwork over 1m4f at Chepstow last month, but he made no mistake when successful over the same track and trip just seven days ago. The way that Joe Tickle's charge won that day would suggest this extra distance will be no problem and, having escaped a penalty, he looks to hold strong claims. Recent Nottingham scorer Russian Rumour makes obvious appeal, and it would be dangerous to rule out The Pug, who has always shaped as if in need of a real stamina test.
Prediction : 1st Taritino 2nd Russian Rumour 3rd The Pug

All of these are open to further improvement and Continuance, who bolted up over 1m2f at Chepstow seven days ago, appeals as a solid proposition, despite the penalty. However, it might pay to side with ALMUDENA. Sir Mark Prescott's filly showed promise across her three qualifying runs, but steps markedly up in trip on a potentially workable mark for her handicap debut and those factors are likely to spark progress. Cracker Star heads the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Almudena 2nd Continuance 3rd Cracker Star

GOLDEN PHASE relished the step up in trip when scoring over C&D last month and the Denis Coakley-trained filly has to be of interest off a 4lb higher mark here. That said, Lookingdandy is an obvious threat as he does not have to carry a penalty for his recent Leicester success, which means that he is 3lb well-in. Others to note are Manila Mist and Jimmy Mark.
Prediction : 1st Golden Phase 2nd Lookingdandy 3rd Manila Mist

JOHNJAY arrives here on the back of two encouraging placed efforts in recent months and it would be no surprise to see him return to winning ways at a venue where he has a good record. Ower Starlight caught the eye when third over C&D a couple of weeks ago and should not be underestimated, while Rivas Rob Roy and Ravenglass complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Johnjay 2nd Ower Starlight 3rd Rivas Rob Roy
