UK Horse Racing Tips: Hamilton

Milford made quite the impression when winning over C&D on his debut, before being far from disgraced in the Norfolk at Royal Ascot. He has disappointed at Windsor subsequently but the application of a first-time visor could sharpen him up, although it is LARCHILL LASS who shades preference. The daughter of Territories will relish forecast conditions and given that only 3lb separates the stablemates on official ratings, she might prove too strong in receipt of weight. Up The Clarets can chase them home.
Prediction : 1st Larchill Lass 2nd Milford 3rd Up The Clarets

CROWN'S LADY has relatively few miles on the clock and sprung something of a surprise when winning at odds of 20/1 at Southwell. She had been below par on good ground prior to that, but pedigree suggests she will appreciate some cut so a 6lb penalty might not stop the Showcasing filly from going in again. Rebecca's Girl remains in good form and should give her plenty to think about, along with Hostelry.
Prediction : 1st Crowns Lady 2nd Rebeccas Girl 3rd Hostelry

Airspeed has occupied the runner-up spot twice since breaking through here and looks a real threat with Brandon Wilkie removing a valuable 5lb, but a chance can be taken on stablemate OUR MIGHTY MO. The son of Kodiac has shown ability in novice/maiden events and was far from disgraced in a big sales race at York last month. A mark of 73 might prove lenient, although he will need to prove he can handle potentially testing conditions. Ziggy's Ariel is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Our Mighty Mo 2nd Airspeed 3rd Ziggys Ariel

LADY CELIA shades the verdict in what looks a wide-open contest. She certainly wasn't disgraced in a 0-80 handicap over 5f at Newcastle and won impressively over the same trip at this venue the time before. This extra furlong shouldn't pose any problems on that evidence and another bold bid is expected. Conservationist drops into class 5 company for the first time in her career and she's interesting, particularly as her mark continues to fall. Rock Melody, Slainte Mhath and Mostar Dreams are others to keep an eye on.
Prediction : 1st Lady Celia 2nd Conservationist 3rd Rock Melody

ELFORLEATHER is on a roll at present, winning his last couple of starts at Ffos Las and Windsor, and he also boasts solid course form - missing out by a short head on his only previous visit here. He makes slightly more appeal than Ebony Maw, who was unlucky to bump into the progressive My Noble Lord over C&D last time, while Newmarket raider Starshine Legend also merits consideration with first-time blinkers fitted.
Prediction : 1st Elforleather 2nd Ebony Maw 3rd Starshine Legend

FISCAL POLICY bounced back to form when scoring over this trip at Catterick a week ago and Ruth Carr's gelding sets the standard on the back of that performance, despite carrying a 5lb penalty. Ramon Di Loria is an obvious threat to the selection having won at Ayr two starts ago and he was only narrowly denied when last seen at Musselburgh. Others to note are Hour By Hour and Earn Your Stripes.
Prediction : 1st Fiscal Policy 2nd Ramon Di Loria 3rd Hour By Hour

SYCAMORE GAP, who was second over C&D in July, made the frame over an extended 1m4f at Musselburgh last week and the four-year-old has to be of interest off the same mark here. Dandy's Angel was less than a length behind the winner when fourth at Carlisle recently and she edges out Lunacy and Twoforthegutter to be best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Sycamore Gap 2nd Dandys Angel 3rd Lunacy
