UK Horse Racing Tips: Southwell

FINN LOUGH made amends for a disappointing effort when getting his head back in front over C&D at the start of last month and the consistent six-year-old doesn't appear to have finished his progression just yet. The dry forecast is likely to suit Always Busy after being pulled up on heavy ground at Lingfield in January, while Jeffery's Cross is worth another chance following his latest effort.
Prediction : 1st Finn Lough 2nd Always Busy 3rd Jefferys Cross

WE GOT YOUR BACK had been a revelation when dropped to the minimum distance with a brace of victories at Leicester and Catterick before the wheels fell off back at 2m4f when returning to the former venue. Laura Morgan's gelding deserves another chance to get his head back in front, despite being 6lb higher than his most recent success. Sangiovese won on handicap debut over hurdles here and is a fascinating contender now switched to fences. Others to note are Harel Du Marais and Extraordinary Man.
Prediction : 1st We Got Your Back 2nd Sangiovese 3rd Harel Du Marais

Willewonga had the benefit of fitness on his side when runner-up to Eva's Oskar at Ludlow with MINELLA TRUMP back in fourth. However, Donald McCain's veteran shaped well before getting tired and has every chance of reversing that form. Percussion was a beaten favourite at Ludlow last time but he remains capable of being in the mix, while any market support for Linelee King would make him of significant interest.
Prediction : 1st Minella Trump 2nd Willewonga 3rd Percussion

JACK HYDE has shown plenty of promise in two hurdles starts to date and this appears to be an ideal opportunity for the seven-year-old to get off the mark over timber. Cobbler's Boy disappointed on his Rules debut but it is far too soon to be writing him off, while any market support for Syllabus or Surrey Lord would have to be noted.
Prediction : 1st Jack Hyde 2nd Cobblers Boy 3rd Syllabus

In a moderate event a chance can be taken with RONNIES RULES, who has unseated his rider on both hurdles starts to date but has more than enough ability to win this if putting in a clear round of jumping. Jack The Nipper is the main danger after his career-best effort last time, while Whatsyourproblem edges out Moonshine Man to be best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Ronnies Rules 2nd Jack The Nipper 3rd Whatsyourproblem

LA PINSONNIERE was doing her best work late on when scoring readily over 2m at Huntingdon last time out and this promising mare could take another step forward with her stamina drawn out further here. Jasmine Bliss won over 2m5f at Ludlow last month and the daughter of Blue Bresil merits the utmost respect, while Jakana is also one for the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st La Pinsonniere 2nd Jasmine Bliss 3rd Jakana

TIGERS MOON shaped with promise when third on his handicap debut over 2m at Market Rasen last month and he looks the one to side with off an unchanged mark. Eric Carmen did it well when landing the spoils over the larger obstacles at Bangor recently and he merits the utmost respect back hurdling off the same mark. Rhiannon Ring is respected most out of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Tigers Moon 2nd Eric Carmen 3rd Rhiannon Ring
