UK Horse Racing Tips: Southwell

Having looked an unlucky loser when rearing in the stalls at Wolverhampton on Saturday, compensation could await MIAKODA. The Richard Hannon-trained colt finished a never-nearer second that day and he makes plenty of appeal being 3lb well-in on this occasion. Harswell Dandy appeared to relish a change of surface judged on her winning all-weather debut at the Dunstall Park track earlier this month and she may serve the most resistance to the selection, ahead of the unexposed Facoulty.
Prediction : 1st Miakoda 2nd Harswell Dandy 3rd Facoulty

MOLTEN SEA justified favouritism when digging deep to deny a subsequent winner on her handicap bow at Musselburgh 12 days ago. A 3lb higher mark is unlikely the ceiling of her ability and tackling the all-weather for the first time shouldn't prevent her from completing a double. Miss Monte Carlo may appreciate a return to this distance and she should make her presence felt, while Tango Sunset's opening mark looks workable.
Prediction : 1st Molten Sea 2nd Miss Monte Carlo 3rd Tango Sunset

PROPHET'S PATH has been knocking on the door in recent months and a breakthrough victory might be on the cards at the sixth time of asking. Owen Burrows' charge is likely to appreciate stepping back up in trip and he may be able to deny the luckless Lennox. The Muhaarar colt was hampered and unseated rider at Doncaster 11 days ago, but a reproduction of his previous runner-up efforts at Windsor and Yarmouth gives him every chance of being in the mix. Market confidence behind newcomer Rose Coloured Girl could see her involved as well.
Prediction : 1st Prophets Path 2nd Lennox 3rd Rose Coloured Girl

Sugarloaf Lenny successfully completed a double when scoring by the smallest of margins over 1m4f at Lingfield earlier in the month and he should remain competitive off 3lb higher. However, it may pay to side with FRAM CASTLE, who returns to the Ollie Sangster stable after hitting the crossbar at Newmarket last month. The son of Decorated Knight might improve for the extra distance and he looks the one to side with. Scottish Reel needs to be monitored in the market on his handicap debut.
Prediction : 1st Fram Castle 2nd Sugarloaf Lenny 3rd Scottish Reel

Vibrato took a step forward from his debut effort to take the silver medal home over C&D in March and is likely to give a solid account on his first start for new connections. However, he might come out second best to OMBRECELL, who caught the eye when finishing a fair fourth on his debut at Kempton last month. The son of Bated Breath is likely to have plenty more to offer and could be the one to beat for the in-form Clive Cox yard. Sword completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Ombrecell 2nd Vibrato 3rd Sword

Covert Legend bounced back to form when returning from a break to fill the runner-up spot at Wolverhampton and it would be no surprise to see him have a say off 1lb higher. However, HAVE YOU A MINUTE looks the way to go. Tom Tate's four-year-old got up in the dying strides over track and trip on his most recent start and a 3lb rise might prove to be on the lenient side. Triggerman is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Have You A Minute 2nd Covert Legend 3rd Triggerman

In what looks a trappy affair on paper, UNASSUMING gets a tentative vote. The daughter of Lope De Vega hasn't kicked on as expected since making a promising debut for Joseph O'Brien in June but, making her handicap/stable debut for the shrewd George Boughey team, a bold bid looks firmly on the cards. Cuban Fiesta looks the main danger to the selection following a recent runner-up effort over a mile at Newcastle, while this step up in trip looks an interesting move for Motagally.
Prediction : 1st Unassuming 2nd Cuban Fiesta 3rd Motagally

Golden Rainbow (first) narrowly got the better of ROGUE DE VEGA (second) when the pair met over 5f at Newcastle recently, but the latter did well to finish so close having conceded first run to the winner on that occasion. With more pace forecast this time around, Antony Brittain's charge can gain revenge over that rival en route to victory. The Defiant lost little in defeat when finishing an excellent second over 5f at Chelmsford latest and he commands respect too.
Prediction : 1st Rogue De Vega 2nd Golden Rainbow 3rd The Defiant

The unexposed JALEA'S QUEST looked to get outpaced before staying on into a modest fourth over 1m4f at Lingfield earlier this month and, eased 2lb stepping up to 1m6f for the first time, she gets the nod to land the spoils. Prince Iago didn't cut much ice on his handicap debut over 2m on testing ground at Chester recently, but he is surely capable of better, while this drop back in trip can see Blenheim Lad in a better light.
Prediction : 1st Jaleas Quest 2nd Prince Iago 3rd Blenheim Lad
