UK Horse Racing Tips: Chepstow

AMMES has shown plenty of ability in each of his three starts, including when finishing a respectable third at Chester earlier in the month, and he sets the standard with a rating of 86. With the James Owen yard in good form, he looks the one to beat. Triple Gee shaped with promise when finishing third on his debut at Salisbury and will most certainly give the selection a race.
Prediction : 1st Ammes 2nd Triple Gee 3rd null

EMILY REBECCA has proved a different proposition since stepping into handicap company as she has taken a silver medal home in each of her two outings. Richard Hannon's filly takes a step up in distance and sports first-time blinkers, which may eke out the improvement required. Her stable companion Phaedra looks the main danger after not being disgraced in third at Nottingham last time, while No Gain isn't out of it either.
Prediction : 1st Emily Rebecca 2nd Phaedra 3rd No Gain

ITALICA took a big step forward from his debut effort to make the frame at Chester earlier in the month and could have lots more to offer. Tom Dascombe's juvenile is related to a few winners and can get off the mark. Sir Albert changed hands for 165,000 euros as a yearling and is a half-brother to the Listed-placed Festive Fare, so he needs to be monitored in the betting market first time out, along with Schrodinger's Cat.
Prediction : 1st Italica 2nd Sir Albert 3rd Schrodingers Cat

A confident vote goes to ROSENPUR, who finished second in a warm class 2 event at Chester recently from 3lb out of the handicap. He might have won were it not for Warren Fentiman dropping his rein in the final furlong and this looks a good opportunity to go one better. Jacquelina was in excellent heart last summer and there were signs of a return to form at Newmarket on Sunday. Connie's Rose, who came off worst in a three-way photo over 6f here last time, is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Rosenpur 2nd Jacquelina 3rd Connies Rose

ART OF FOX ran well for a long way despite pulling too hard over 6f at Nottingham last time. The gelded son of Mehmas was eased 2lb for his troubles and remains capable of better, so perhaps dropping to the minimum trip can work the oracle. Bust A Moon landed a Seller at Beverley recently and is respected under a 6lb penalty, while others to note include Over Spiced and Step Along.
Prediction : 1st Art Of Fox 2nd Bust A Moon 3rd Over Spiced

COOPERATION returned to winning ways in an apprentice handicap at Newmarket five days ago and remains in the same grade. Providing the seven-year-old is in similar form, he will prove very tough to beat. Marsh Benham sprang a 25/1 surprise to score at Newbury last Friday and is likely to be on the premises. Of the remainder, Ultramarine makes most appeal.
Prediction : 1st Cooperation 2nd Marsh Benham 3rd Ultramarine

POET came through the field to record a 28/1 victory at Newcastle last time and there didn't seem to be any fluke about that success. Scott Dixon's six-year-old looks well placed to complete the double, with his main threat possibly being Candy Warhol, who will be looking to build on his neck second at Brighton earlier in the month. Silky Robin is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Poet 2nd Candy Warhol 3rd Silky Robin
