UK Horse Racing Tips: Sedgefield

Not beaten far in a Catterick handicap recently, RIDIN SOLO may appreciate a return to maiden hurdle company and this appeals as an ideal opportunity to get off the mark at the eighth time of asking under Rules. Laravie hasn't shown much in two outings since joining the James Owen stable, but she can do better. Kalo Athena could be interesting on her timber bow.
Prediction : 1st Ridin Solo 2nd Laravie 3rd Kalo Athena

A creditable third over 3m at Wetherby on his second run back from a long absence, THE QUESTIONER looks primed for a big performance off an unchanged mark. Stepping up in trip will suit the nine-year-old and he may have too much for Zwicky, who goes back over hurdles and has a good record here. Twp Stori has strong claims if bouncing back to the form that saw him score at Lingfield on his penultimate start.
Prediction : 1st The Questioner 2nd Zwicky 3rd Twp Stori

TOM CREEN wasn't for catching when making all over an extended 2m3f here on Boxing Day and dropping back in trip should not inconvenience him as he attempts to follow up off 3lb higher. Sam England's charge gets the vote ahead of Master Breffni, who bounced back to form with a decent runner-up effort at Catterick. C&D winner Natural Ability is another to bear in mind.
Prediction : 1st Tom Creen 2nd Master Breffni 3rd Natural Ability

Trailblazer arrives on the back of a respectable fourth over 2m1f at Newcastle and looks worth another go at this distance. However, there is a sneaking suspicion that we've not seen the best of ROCCOS INSPIRATION since entering handicap company last April and reapplied cheekpieces could work the oracle. Olly Murphy's mare lurks on a dangerous mark and a reproduction of her C&D second just under a year ago would likely see her go close. Lone Star is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Roccos Inspiration 2nd Trailblazer 3rd Lone Star

Three miles appeared to stretch the stamina of LET'S GO JOE when weakening into sixth at Wetherby and he makes plenty of appeal dropping in distance. The seven-year-old landed a maiden hurdle over C&D in November 2023 and this looks a suitable opportunity for him to regain the winning thread. Handicap debutants Born In The West and Devon Skies should prove more competitive in this company, with the former a shade more compelling up in trip.
Prediction : 1st Lets Go Joe 2nd Born In The West 3rd Devon Skies

It was a lot more like it from PILGRIMS KING last time out, withe the Bowens' nine-year-old ending a run of four incompletions when third at Fakenham. He finds himself well handicapped as a result and, in a race lacking depth, he ought to go very close if building on that performance. Beat The Edge weakened over 3m1f at Catterick last Friday, but had been in good form prior and could bounce back down in trip. Bebside Banter may chase the pair home.
Prediction : 1st Pilgrims King 2nd Beat The Edge 3rd Bebside Banter

LOVE TRUE was going best of all when coming to grief two from home at Catterick a fortnight ago and, if none the worse for that tumble, the five-year-old looks more than capable of recording a first hurdles success. Winds Of Winter has been admirably consistent since joining Iain Jardine and she's unlikely to be away, although Demoiselle Kap, who contested a warm class 2 at Ludlow last time, might be the bigger threat.
Prediction : 1st Love True 2nd Demoiselle Kap 3rd Winds Of Winter
