UK Horse Racing Tips: Newmarket

White Crown Star took a step forward from his debut effort to make the frame at Yarmouth in September and he has to be considered on his first start for the Andrew Balding stable. However, a chance can be taken on newcomer MAGNETITE, who changed hands for 575,000gns as a yearling and is a full-brother to Group 2 winner Elarqapm. Therefore, it would be no surprise to see him make an instant impression, while any market confidence behind Baloo's Blues would be interesting.
Prediction : 1st Magnetite 2nd White Crown Star 3rd Baloos Blues

Marching Mac hosed up by 11 lengths in a class 4 event at Leicester last time and he holds an obvious chance to complete the hat-trick under a 6lb penalty. However, he might be worth taking on with KISS AND RUN, who occupied the runner-up berth in a stronger contest than this at Windsor in October and goes off the same mark today. If she can run to a similar level, she could be the one to beat. Monsieur Beaulieu completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Kiss And Run 2nd Marching Mac 3rd Monsieur Beaulieu

Magic Mild attempted to make every yard of the running when fading into third in a Group 3 over 6f at Salisbury in September and she sets the standard in this contest with a rating of 95. However, the vote goes to NARDRA, who made a strong impression when bolting up on her debut at Haydock and she should have plenty more to offer. The daughter of Night Of Thunder is fancied to take this step up in her stride, while Running Queen is another to watch out for.
Prediction : 1st Nardra 2nd Magic Mild 3rd Running Queen

MONTEZUMA showed plenty of pace over 7f at Kempton on debut, but paid the price when tiring in the closing stages. This drop to 6f looks the logical move and the Godolphin colt may prove the one to side with. Sixtygeesbaby finished strongly to take fourth at Windsor on his introduction and he can feature with improvement expected having been subsequently gelded, while Stardancer is a brother to three winners and the son of Dark Angel is preferred to Jolly Roger of the newcomers.
Prediction : 1st Montezuma 2nd Sixtygeesbaby 3rd Stardancer

CLAXTON BAY has improved for a change of scenery and was having only his third start for Richard Hannon when winning at Beverley in September. He has scope for further improvement off his current rating and is taken to defy a 3lb rise. Sixfiveseven appreciated the drop in distance when finishing runner-up over a mile at Brighton and there looks more to come from him, while Buy The Dip placed at Brighton in August and he makes more appeal than Dembe.
Prediction : 1st Claxton Bay 2nd Sixfiveseven 3rd Buy The Dip

Marsh Benham has been kept busy and seems to have two ways of running, but he did win twice last month and can't be written off following a Leicester defeat. Astronomica and SWATCH were both ahead of him there, though, and while the former gave favourite-backers a good run for their money in second, the Moores' new recruit might be able to improve past her now faced with an additional furlong. Chourmo went agonisingly close at Brighton and is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Swatch 2nd Astronomica 3rd null

On The River has justified market support in testing conditions at York and Haydock, while First Officer also arrives in winning form following a determined display over a furlong shorter here. Loving Look has made the frame twice since going handicapping on the back of a Kempton triumph, but a chance is taken that SEA JOURNEY's initial mark is a workable one. The beautifully-bred filly offered encouragement at this venue and Lingfield prior to a Kempton disappointment and is open to any amount of improvement.
Prediction : 1st Sea Journey 2nd On The River 3rd First Officer
