UK Horse Racing Tips: Sedgefield

SIGN AGAIN had plenty in hand when winning by 19 lengths at Plumpton last month and Charlie Longsdon's gelding is very hard to oppose on the back of that performance. The main threat is clearly Pigeon House, who hit the crossbar at Hereford a couple of weeks ago. The rest all have questions to answer, but Monteplex is the pick of them.
Prediction : 1st Sign Again 2nd Pigeon House 3rd Monteplex

BLACKWATER LILLY arrives here on the back of another second on her hurdling debut at Newcastle a month ago and Brian Ellison's filly appears to have been found an ideal opportunity to go one better. Paddys Policy was third to a useful rival over C&D last time and is likely to be in the mix once again, while Broderick completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Blackwater Lilly 2nd Paddys Policy 3rd Broderick

FEARLESS ACTION failed to fire at Hexham last time but the eight-year-old could be hard to beat in this company if a first-time visor sparks a return to form. I'm Too Tired has made the frame on his last couple of starts and could make his presence felt once again, while Flash Du Pistolet is another with valid form claims in an open event.
Prediction : 1st Fearless Action 2nd Im Too Tired 3rd Flash Du Pistolet

Not the deepest contest despite a healthy field size, and preference is for MISS APPLEJACK. Charlie Longsdon's mare benefitted from a drop in trip and the application of first-time cheekpieces/tongue-tie (retained) when on target at Southwell earlier this month. She pulled well clear with the runner-up that day, so a subsequent 8lb rise might not be as harsh as it may seem. Market support for handicap debutant Hill Of Scarriff would be noteworthy, while others to consider include Mr Sundancer and Knacker Trapper.
Prediction : 1st Miss Applejack 2nd Hill Of Scarriff 3rd Mr Sundancer

YEALAND made the perfect start to life over fences when winning at Doncaster recently and with plenty of scope for improvement, he can defy a 4lb rise en route to further success. The Paddy Pie was a comfortable winner over 2m5f here last time out and the veteran ought to be a real threat from a 5lb raised mark. Kaproyale heads the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Yealand 2nd The Paddy Pie 3rd Kaproyale

SALSADA put a Wetherby no-show behind her when comfortably accounting for Punxsutawney Phil over C&D and can confirm that superiority on only 2lb worse terms. The runner-up has since gone one better at Musselburgh, although the biggest threat here could come in the shape of Foster's Fortune, who has been progressing really well over shorter. Harper Valley had to settle for third as favourite behind the selection last time, but it would come as no surprise if he at least closed the gap.
Prediction : 1st Salsada 2nd Fosters Fortune 3rd Harper Valley

Lady Kluck cost 75,000 pounds after winning between the flags and built on a satisfactory Ludlow third to break through over C&D. She has obvious claims but will do well to successfully concede weight to KINGSTON QUEEN, who also struck on her sole appearance between the flags and has shaped like an imminent winner when making the frame at Chepstow and Plumpton. Nicky Richards' team is flying so 70,000-euro Authorized filly La Zoubida is worth keeping a close eye on.
Prediction : 1st Kingston Queen 2nd Lady Kluck 3rd La Zoubida
