UK Horse Racing Tips: Leicester

Those with racecourse experience make no appeal, so a chance is taken on the newcomer ALEISHKA. Ed Dunlop's filly is a half-sister to the smart Royal Patronage, who won both the Acomb and Royal Lodge as a two-year-old, and she could be thereabouts at the finish. Celeborn and Chesneys Charm represent in-form yards, while Metro Dubai is another worth noting, but Feeling High may be seen to better effect when tackling longer trips.
Prediction : 1st Aleishka 2nd Celeborn 3rd Chesneys Charm

FEARLESS FREDDY was doing his best work at the finish when beaten less than a length at Bath last week. This longer trip should bring further progress and he gets the vote. Corriamo finished behind the selection at Windsor on his debut but should also appreciate this extra test of stamina, and his yard has been among the winners lately. Testimonial is related to three winners, while Timefall is another newcomer to note.
Prediction : 1st Fearless Freddy 2nd Corriamo 3rd Testimonial

Royal Dream was winning for the fourth time on the all-weather when scoring at Chelmsford, but he's yet to get his head in front on turf and was well beaten at Yarmouth on his penultimate start. SIEMPRE ARTURO was having his first outing on the grass when fifth at Windsor. There should be more to come from him on this surface, and this doesn't look a strong race. Giselles Defence won on soft going at Pontefract last month, while Flight Of Angels slides further down the handicap.
Prediction : 1st Siempre Arturo 2nd Royal Dream 3rd Giselles Defence

Although not the most straightforward, BASILETTE has given the impression that a race of this nature is certainly within her reach this season. She responded well to the application of cheekpieces when finishing an excellent second over an extended 1m3f at Lingfield, just finding an in-form rival too strong, and she can go one better. The hat-trick seeking Camacho Man might emerge as the main danger, while the step down in trip looks to be a positive for Ship To Shore.
Prediction : 1st Basilette 2nd Camacho Man 3rd Ship To Shore

Handicap debutant Mutamanni represents the in-form George Boughey team and he warrants serious respect, but he is likely to be well found in the market and STASH THE CASH may offer some value against him. Tim Easterby's charge was runner-up behind a useful sprinter at Musselburgh earlier this month and, eased 1lb, he gets a tentative nod. If the early fractions are brisk, that could help Winged Messenger get competitive, for all that he needs to bounce back from a below-par effort over 6f at Chester.
Prediction : 1st Stash The Cash 2nd Mutamanni 3rd Winged Messenger

BLUE COLLAR LAD shaped with more promise than the bare result suggests when fourth at Wolverhampton last week, staying on strongly before meeting trouble in running close home. Eased 1lb, and granted a clear passage, he may be tough to stop this time around. The step back up to 6f can help Sub Thirteen and, off just 2lb higher than his last winning mark, he commands respect. Rusheen Boy also enters calculations on the strength of his all-weather form during the winter.
Prediction : 1st Blue Collar Lad 2nd Sub Thirteen 3rd Rusheen Boy

Having gone clear before halfway, VOLTAIC eventually clung on gamely to deny Kondratiev Wave over 1m at Brighton last week. With the drop back in trip in his favour, he gets the vote to confirm that form and complete the double. Kondratiev Wave has been running consistently well, though, and won't go down without a fight, while Kodebreaker and Cubanista are others to note.
Prediction : 1st Voltaic 2nd Kondratiev Wave 3rd Kodebreaker

WONDER SMILE only found subsequent easy winner Test Of Love too good over this trip at Salisbury and, with further improvement on the cards, he is fancied to defy a 2lb rise and go one better. Perianth and Indication Court both arrive in winning form and warrant respect, but the bigger danger could prove to be Hurricane Power, who made a promising return at Goodwood and now wears first-time cheekpieces.
Prediction : 1st Wonder Smile 2nd Hurricane Power 3rd Perianth
