UK Horse Racing Tips: Yarmouth

FOUGERE won, albeit narrowly, at Nottingham last time out when sent off joint-favourite in a first-time hood and although upped 3lb for that, she may be up to going in again in this field. City Escape hasn't got her head in front since last September, but was beaten less than a length at Leicester recently and she could prove a huge danger. Course winner Duchess, who scored over a mile here in May, races off just 4lb higher now.
Prediction : 1st Fougere 2nd City Escape 3rd Duchess

Ellaria Sand has a 6lb winner's penalty and was beaten over five lengths on her one try at this trip earlier in the month. She can go well, but preference is for BELLATOR BULLET, who was second on his only start at Redcar when slowly away and running green. He can learn from that and if he does improve, he looks the one to beat. The dropped-in-class Pellitory is a serious rival after his fourth here in a much better race.
Prediction : 1st Bellator Bullet 2nd Pellitory 3rd Ellaria Sand

Anglo Saxson likes it here, with four out of his five career victories coming at the track, although he wasn't at his best when 11th at Doncaster last month and needs to bounce back. Embarked was beaten just half a length off this mark at Southwell and is worth another try at the mile, but a chance is taken on STRAIGHT A. A 6f winner here in June 2023, this will be his second outing for Mick Appleby and he can go well off 2lb lower and upped to this trip.
Prediction : 1st Straight A 2nd Embarked 3rd Anglo Saxson

CALUMET improved markedly for the step up to 1m2f when scoring impressively at Windsor, and a mark of 91 could underestimate his true potential on handicap debut. Marco Botti's unexposed three-year-old may have too much for Southwell winner Victorious Street, as well as Mutaawid, who performed with credit over 1m4f at Ascot but may be better suited by dropping back in distance. Placed in valuable handicaps the last twice at Goodwood and York, Tony Montana is a big player too.
Prediction : 1st Calumet 2nd Mutaawid 3rd Tony Montana

A respectable fourth over the minimum trip at Leicester, SHIBUYA STORM should be much more at home back at 6f, having scored over this trip at Lingfield on her penultimate outing. The booking of Robert Havlin is a positive one and she can strike on handicap debut, with Huddle Up looking best placed to chase her home following a sound runner-up effort at Pontefract on his first start for new connections. Now that Sovereign Knight has regained the winning thread after a taking performance at Chelmsford, he can also have a say in proceedings.
Prediction : 1st Shibuya Storm 2nd Huddle Up 3rd Sovereign Knight

Now that the penny has dropped for GULTARI after a determined breakthrough success here over shorter, William Haggas' filly is likely to have plenty more improvement forthcoming going back over 7f. Runner-up on each of his last two starts at Brighton, Interestnpenalties can give her the most to think about, although Dion Baker was a comfortable winner at Leicester on his penultimate outing and is dangerous if performing to that level.
Prediction : 1st Gultari 2nd Interestnpenalties 3rd Dion Baker
