UK Horse Racing Tips: Southwell

SUN DANCER GIRL recorded a third win from her last four starts when on target over 1m6f here in July and with a drop in trip unlikely to be an issue, Andrew Balding's improving filly can defy a 6lb rise in the handicap. Dance Time hit the woodwork over C&D last month and the addition of first-time cheekpieces could eke out some improvement. Cherry Burton is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Sun Dancer Girl 2nd Dance Time 3rd Cherry Burton

Lost In Time landed a gamble when winning at Yarmouth recently and although he's respected off 4lb higher, KOJIN is preferred. Ian Williams' gelding exploited a sliding handicap mark to score at Wolverhampton eight days ago and a 3lb rise looks well within range. Where Is The Love shaped with promise on her latest outing and is still open to improvement.
Prediction : 1st Kojin 2nd Lost In Time 3rd Where Is The Love

Straight A bounced back in no uncertain terms when winning at Wolverhampton recently. A 5lb rise looks more than fair on that evidence and he can go well, but it is TURBO COMMAND that shades preference. The son of War Command travelled strongly into contention over the mile at Newcastle last time before fading in the closing stages, so the drop to 7f might prove ideal. Scarlet Lady heads the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Turbo Command 2nd Straight A 3rd Scarlet Lady

Yoshimi struck by half a length in this grade at Chelmsford on his most recent start and holds an obvious chance off 3lb higher. However, it may pay to side with KING OF YORK, who wasn't disgraced in fifth over a mile here last time and goes off an unchanged mark. Currently rated 9lb lower than his last success here in March, Scott Dixon's five-year-old looks well placed to record a third course-and-distance success. Charlie Mason is another to note.
Prediction : 1st King Of York 2nd Yoshimi 3rd Charlie Mason

SKY ADVOCATE failed to land the odds when hitting the crossbar over this trip at Wolverhampton last time, but he sets a lofty standard in this contest with a rating of 88. The son of Inns Of Court might only need to produce a repeat of that display in order to get off the mark. Chelsea Old Church shaped with promise in third on his debut at Chester in August and should go well, while Kempton runner-up Pave The Way is another to take seriously.
Prediction : 1st Sky Advocate 2nd Chelsea Old Church 3rd Pave The Way

After winning at York in May, JUBILEE WALK failed to justify favouritism in a hot handicap at Ascot in June, but the performance is worth an upgrade as he may have been disadvantaged by racing on the unfavoured side of the track. James Ferguson's three-year-old goes off the same mark and might be able to regain the winning thread with less on his plate today. First Folio made every yard of the running to score at this level at Yarmouth in September and would be foolish to dismiss off 4lb higher. Navello is a player based on his victory at Wolverhampton two starts ago.
Prediction : 1st Jubilee Walk 2nd First Folio 3rd Navello

A two-time winner over C&D, SARDINIAN WARRIOR impressed when readily making all here last month and it would be no surprise if he were able to bring up a hat-trick now making his handicap debut. Savvy Victory was readily outclassed in a Newmarket Group 3 over 1m1f when last seen but, eased in grade and sporting first-time cheekpieces, he should not be dismissed lightly. Silver Sword wasn't disgraced when finishing down the field in the Cambridgeshire on his penultimate start and, on the back of an neck second over a mile at Kempton most recently, he merits consideration off 2lb higher.
Prediction : 1st Sardinian Warrior 2nd Savvy Victory 3rd Silver Sword

CARBINE HARVESTER showed plenty of early toe before fading into fourth over 6f in testing ground at Nottingham on his second start last month. Now eased in trip, William Haggas' two-year-old gets the nod to land the spoils in what looks a winnable affair. Mae Amor was last seen finishing second over this trip at Thirsk in August and a bold bid in first-time cheekpieces is expected, while Dothan is also considered.
Prediction : 1st Carbine Harvester 2nd Mae Amor 3rd Dothan

DRIFTS AWAY showed a likeable attitude when making all over a mile at Chelmsford on his second start in a handicap recently and, off 3lb higher, he looks capable of landing a double. A 1lb rise for a recent runner-up effort over an extended mile at Wolverhampton doesn't discount Juan Cool Dude, while Kessaar Power was on target over this trip at Chelmsford last month and merits consideration off 5lb higher.
Prediction : 1st Drifts Away 2nd Juan Cool Dude 3rd Kessaar Power
