UK Horse Racing Tips: Sedgefield

LOVE TRUE took a big step forward when third at Huntingdon (winner followed up next time and second rated 124) and she makes plenty of appeal starting handicap life off a mark of 95, especially as Ben Smith takes a handy 8lb off her back. Foster's Fortune has posted a couple of solid placed efforts since winning over C&D in May and will likely give another good account, while Suitably Surprised also merits consideration following her recent track-and-trip second.
Prediction : 1st Love True 2nd Fosters Fortune 3rd Suitably Surprised

A chance is taken on VINNY'S DREAM, who has earned a rating of 73 on the Flat with three decent enough efforts and he looks the sort that should take to this sphere. It's also encouraging that his stable are currently two from three with their hurdle runners at this venue. Mill Street is interestingly Ben Pauling's only runner on the card and may bounce back from a disappointing effort at Stratford, while Masonbrook Meadow also holds claims on her best form.
Prediction : 1st Vinnys Dream 2nd Mill Street 3rd Masonbrook Meadow

Dropped into class 5 company for the first time since winning easily at Southwell in June, NEIGH BOTHA is fancied to give weight and a beating to these rivals. He certainly wasn't disgraced in a 0-120 event, also at Southwell, most recently and the handicapper has been kind in dropping him 3lb in the ratings since. Natural Ability might have been freshened up by a recent stable switch and a repeat of his penultimate fourth over C&D should put him on the premises. A switch to fences may spark some improvement from the four-year-old Cofficionado.
Prediction : 1st Neigh Botha 2nd Natural Ability 3rd Cofficionado

DEVON SKIES bumped into a useful prospect when a well-held second over 2m1f at Newcastle a couple of weeks ago and a repeat of that form may be good enough in this company. That said, Dazzlelikethis showed ability despite falling on her only start between the flags and she should not be underestimated on her Rules debut. Others to note are Winds Of Winter and Trysting Thorn.
Prediction : 1st Devon Skies 2nd Dazzlelikethis 3rd Winds Of Winter

Zwicky has to be of interest having won over 2m5f here last month, but this step up in trip is a slight concern. With that in mind, preference is for ILLOGICAL LOGIC, who was second off this mark at Fakenham a couple of weeks ago and he may improve for the application of first-time cheekpieces. The rest all have questions to answer, but Lady Mendoza is the pick of them.
Prediction : 1st Illogical Logic 2nd Zwicky 3rd Lady Mendoza

It is hard to oppose CLEAN GETAWAY, who followed up his chase win last month with an impressive hurdles victory over 2m1f here last week. The seven-year-old does not have to carry a penalty for that success and is 10lb well-in as a result. Blended Stealth is likely to be in the mix once again, while Sefton Warrior could make the frame if back to his best.
Prediction : 1st Clean Getaway 2nd Blended Stealth 3rd Sefton Warrior
