UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

In what looks a trappy opening contest, LONGUERUE gets the tentative vote. Robert Eddery's charge put on a stamina-laden performance when scoring over 1m6f at Yarmouth earlier this month and the suspicion is that a 3lb rise may not be enough to anchor her back up to 2m. Dangers are aplenty, though, and are headed by last-time-out winner Scylla, though a 4lb rise for that performance demands more. Smart over obstacles, Teqany is a fascinating contender reverting to the level.
Prediction : 1st Longuerue 2nd Scylla 3rd Teqany

Creative Lady was sent off a warm order when finishing runner-up over 7f at Epsom on just her second start earlier this month, and she should be on the premises once more with a reproduction of that effort. That said, she might have to play second fiddle to the more experienced LILLY'S BET. William Knight's charge shaped with more credit than the bare result suggests when finishing a staying-on fifth in a Kempton handicap over 6f latest and, stepping back up to 7f with a hood reapplied, she gets the vote. Lockwood is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Lillys Bet 2nd Creative Lady 3rd Lockwood

TIME TESTED readily pulled clear with the runner-up when scoring over 7f at Yarmouth on his penultimate start and, after shaping like he was still in good form when finishing second over 1m2f at Brighton earlier this month, he gets the nod to make his handicap debut a winning one. Recent C&D winner Snooker McCrew may emerge as the main danger to the selection under a 6lb penalty, while Forever Noah also warrants respect.
Prediction : 1st Time Tested 2nd Snooker McCrew 3rd Forever Noah

ULTRAMARINE hinted at a revival with a couple of third-placed finishes over 6f earlier this month and may be able to swing this one his way with an additional furlong sure to suit. Already a three-time winner over this trip, the selection notably competes off 9lb below his last winning mark. Lady Dreamer rates a solid alternative with Oisin Murphy an eye-catching jockey booking, while Scarboroughwarning is interesting upped in trip.
Prediction : 1st Ultramarine 2nd Lady Dreamer 3rd Scarboroughwarning

On the back of a C&D win and respectable second-placed finish on the turf course here 22 days ago, BIG BARD is holding his form well and is worth another chance back on the all-weather. Add to that Joe Bradnam's 7lb claim is a very handy asset and a bold showing can be expected. Sir Rodneyredblood also rates a key player at this level, while Porfin tends to go well here and is not one to dismiss.
Prediction : 1st Big Bard 2nd Sir Rodneyredblood 3rd Porfin

DIAMOND DREAMER had something in hand when he asserted over runner-up Chiedozie on the turf course here 22 days ago and is strongly fancied to conform the form, despite a 5lb higher mark. The Defiant and So Sleepy are other previous course winners to consider, with the former rated the more potent threat to the selection on this occasion given he runs off 2lb below his last winning mark.
Prediction : 1st Diamond Dreamer 2nd The Defiant 3rd Chiedozie
