UK Horse Racing Tips: Newmarket

ROYAL POWER ran well for third in a Listed race at Goodwood on his reappearance and the unexposed Godolphin colt looks capable of going well on his handicap debut. Stable companion Endless Victory is not out of this either, while Chantilly drops back down in distance after a good effort at Royal Ascot and can figure. The progressive pair Rebaatt and Travolta have a hike in the ratings to contend with, but Candle Of Dubai is worth a second glance.
Prediction : 1st Royal Power 2nd Endless Victory 3rd Chantilly

HEAVENS GATE arrives on the back of a solid third in the Albany at Royal Ascot, where she finished comfortably ahead of the reopposing Mountain Breeze and looks set to run a big race. Mighty Eriu and Maw Lam filled the places in the Queen Mary over 5f at Ascot and both should see out this extra distance, but Arabian Dusk may prove a bigger threat on her third in a Listed race over C&D.
Prediction : 1st Heavens Gate 2nd Arabian Dusk 3rd Mighty Eriu

TIDES OF WAR made the most of a lenient mark to land a competitive contest over this trip at Goodwood last time. A 4lb rise may not be enough to anchor David Simcock's charge now he's got his head back in front. Fairbanks finished in front of Bague D'or when sixth in the Duke Of Edinburgh at Royal Ascot, although the latter is a C&D winner and is fancied to turn the tables, while Fox Journey disappointed at Ascot but it's too soon to write him off.
Prediction : 1st Tides Of War 2nd Bague Dor 3rd Fox Journey

Having dug deep to land the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot last month, dual Group 1 winner PORTA FORTUNA arrives on the back of a career-best performance. The daughter of Caravaggio should prove a warm order and further glory looks imminent. Running Lion looked better than ever when scoring in the Duke Of Cambridge and the Gosdens' filly may give the selection most to think about, ahead of the unexposed A Lilac Rolla.
Prediction : 1st Porta Fortuna 2nd Running Lion 3rd A Lilac Rolla

Mothecombe is related to some smart types, including the Group 3 winner Fairy Cross, and any market support for Charlie Appleby's newcomer must be noted. However, MOUNT KILIMANJARO is taken to build on his fifth-placed debut over 7f at Leopardstown in May and that experience could prove to be vital. Recent Doncaster third Field Of Gold is another likely improver and the Kingman colt completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Mount Kilimanjaro 2nd Mothecombe 3rd Field Of Gold

Metabolt has to be of interest having scored twice last month but marginal preference is for GISBURN. Richard Hannon's gelding has been catching the eye when staying on late over 6f of late and he could take advantage of a lenient handicap mark now up in trip. Smoky Mountain remains unexposed and some promise can be taken from his Goodwood effort last time, while Zouzanna is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Gisburn 2nd Metabolt 3rd Smoky Mountain

NO HALF MEASURES has progressed well this year and outran odds of 50/1 when filling third place in the Palace Of Holyroodhouse at Royal Ascot last month. Off just a 1lb higher mark here, the daughter of Cable Bay could be hard to stop. Good Good Good has to be of some interest now switched to handicaps having won both of her starts in novice company, while Almaty Star and Isle Of Lismore are others who could go well.
Prediction : 1st No Half Measures 2nd Good Good Good 3rd Almaty Star
