UK Horse Racing Tips: Yarmouth

It might pay to concentrate on those towards the top of the racecard, with the recently-gelded GLENRIDDING fancied to carry top-weight to victory on his nursery debut. His three qualifying runs have been moderately progressive and with the step up in trip an interesting move, the son of Ulysses can stamp his authority on a weak race. Vilaine Verlaine and Unex Friendly appeal as the pick of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Glenridding 2nd Unex Friendly 3rd Vilaine Verlaine

MAKE LOVE sets the standard and with the weight allowance she gets from the boys giving her a feasible advantage, the James Horton-trained filly is forwarded as the strongest option based on the limited evidence available. Dapper Gee Gee was a respectable second on his debut over 7f at Chepstow and is feared most from those with experience. Lantern Yard and Advertorial are appealing newcomers who won't need to be anything special to have an impact.
Prediction : 1st Make Love 2nd Dapper Gee Gee 3rd Lantern Yard

Demoted from first to second when he caused interference near the finish at Thirsk last month, COOL LEGEND could be a different proposition now he has proven this trip is within his compass and he can put the record straight if he stays out of trouble this time. Charging Thunder has stronger credentials than some of the rest over this trip and can give the selection the most to think about, although Wahraan and the lightly-raced Prince Maxi can also get competitive on these terms.
Prediction : 1st Cool Legend 2nd Charging Thunder 3rd Wahraan

FORCE AND VALOUR struggled in a valuable sales race at Newmarket last time, but his previous maiden form suggests that an opening mark of 79 should be workable on his nursery debut. With that in mind, the son of Mehmas gets the vote ahead of Redorange, who has been progressive in novice company and may improve for the application of a first-time tongue-tie. Others to note are Glitterati and Alashos.
Prediction : 1st Force And Valour 2nd Redorange 3rd Glitterati

THE X O could not make an impact when last seen in the Stewards' Cup at Goodwood, but he was not disgraced when ninth in the Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot on his previous outing. The son of Zoffany might be hard to stop off this mark with his sights now lowered. First Folio has been running well in defeat this summer and could make the frame once again. Smart Hero and Rocking Ends are also considered.
Prediction : 1st The X O 2nd First Folio 3rd Smart Hero

GRACIOUS LEADER wasn't able to follow up on his Lingfield success at Kempton last month, but it was still a creditable performance. Now in the care of George Boughey, the unexposed three-year-old sports a first-time tongue-tie and he could resume progress back on the grass. Oisin Murphy gets aboard Claxton Bay for the first time and he would hold every chance if building on his recent Salisbury second. Others to note include Ratafia and Adelabella.
Prediction : 1st Gracious Leader 2nd Claxton Bay 3rd Ratafia

Split Elevens has been more effective on the all-weather but given the form he's been in lately, it would be folly to rule out further success, even though he could only manage fourth at Brighton on Tuesday. On Song went down by a narrow margin at Brighton and ought to go well from an unchanged mark, but preference is for I CAN'T BELIEVE. The son of Magna Grecia, who is a half-brother to the classy Royal Patronage, enters handicaps from a workable rating and progress could be on the cards.
Prediction : 1st I Cant Believe 2nd Split Elevens 3rd On Song
