UK Horse Racing Tips: Haydock

MY DREAM WORLD looked a work in progress when he chased home an odds-on favourite over C&D, but he should have learned a great deal from the experience and rates the one to be with here. Edna E Mode (third) finished a length and a half in front of Bayadere (fourth) when they clashed over 1m2f at Lingfield and can at least be expected to uphold that form over this longer trip. The class-dropping Across Earth is also considered.
Prediction : 1st My Dream World 2nd Edna E Mode 3rd Bayadere

PROFITABLE EDGE ran well throughout last season and having made a winning reappearance at Thirsk recently, the four-year-old can repeat the feat, despite the imposition of a 6lb higher mark. Lil Guff (fifth) and Thunder Star (fourth) are closely matched based on their encounter at Ascot last month but, armed with a 4lb pull in the weights, the former rates the chief threat to the selection. The returning Dolly Gray also enters calculations.
Prediction : 1st Profitable Edge 2nd Lil Guff 3rd Thunder Star

INTRUSIVELY chased home a promising type at Nottingham on his racecourse bow last week and is a highly appealing option stepping up in trip after a relatively quick turnaround. King Of Angels is another with a serious chance, especially given how well advertised his first run at Chester has become since. Slightly disappointing at the same venue last month, the Hugo Palmer-trained colt does need to up the ante now he goes a furlong further. Victory Sound and Canvas rate the pick of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Intrusively 2nd King Of Angels 3rd Victory Sound

Lady Of Arabia is the only C&D winner in this field and warrants respect, but she was beaten 16 lengths at Kempton last month and may have to settle for a place. With the Roger Varian string in good form, unlucky Hamilton second Strong Impact looks a major player, but a chance is taken on TO CATCH A THIEF. Third in the Zetland Gold Cup on soft ground at Redcar, the Cracksman gelding should be happier on this surface for a yard that loves a winner here.
Prediction : 1st To Catch A Thief 2nd Strong Impact 3rd Lady Of Arabia

A small field may see this turn tactical and if that is the case, Middlesex may be able to take them along from the start and can set her own pace. She won't be easy to catch but BLUE COLLAR travelled well at Goodwood before being sent to the front, only to be overhauled late on, and if he is held up longer, he could go one better. Carpathian and Straight A may fight it out for third.
Prediction : 1st Blue Collar 2nd Middlesex 3rd Carpathian

Siam Fox has won over this trip three times, including last time out at Windsor when bursting back into life. He can mount another challenge but a chance is taken on TROPEZ POWER, who ran on well for third at Beverley off 1lb higher and steps back up to a mile, with Joe Leavy claiming a useful 5lb. Evocative Spark and Hat Toss both have recent placed form and might prove best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Tropez Power 2nd Siam Fox 3rd Evocative Spark
