UK Horse Racing Tips: Kelso

Having made a perfect start to his jumping career when scoring at Plumpton a fortnight ago, there should be more to come from PERGAMON. The four-year-old showed signs of inexperience and any improvement may see him follow up. The biggest threat could emerge from stable/seasonal debutant Kow Boy Sivola, who finished last term with a respectable second at Sedgefield. Champ De Gane and Green Bonnet are worth a market check.
Prediction : 1st Pergamon 2nd Kow Boy Sivola 3rd Champ De Gane

SPARTAN WARRIOR lost little in defeat when finding only a subsequent winner too strong at Stratford earlier this month. Rebecca Menzies' gelding makes grand appeal racing off an unchanged mark and compensation could be imminent. A switch of tactics saw Away She Goes making all over 2m here 18 days ago and an additional quarter-mile, combined with a 7lb rise, shouldn't prevent another bold bid. The six-year-old is feared most, ahead of Sedgefield runner-up Jet Patrol.
Prediction : 1st Spartan Warrior 2nd Away She Goes 3rd Jet Patrol

Reverting to 3m proved just the trick for last month's Perth scorer Billable Grant and he may have more to offer over staying distances. However, a 5lb higher mark does demand more from the Watar gelding and he may have his work cut out against Susan Corbett's duo. LES'S LEGACY has improved since having cheekpieces added and a repeat of his latest second here may prove sufficient. Stablemate Wee Alki is unlikely to be far behind.
Prediction : 1st Less Legacy 2nd Wee Alki 3rd Billable Grant

IMPERO travels over from Ireland with a leading chance. Cian Collins' progressive hurdler found life tough in Listed company at Punchestown last month, having won nicely at Ballinrobe prior to that, and there looks more to come from the six-year-old back at this level. Rewired arrives off the back of a convincing victory at Hereford. He's now won two of his last three outings and makes more appeal than Simple Star of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Impero 2nd Rewired 3rd Simple Star

Starlyte disappointed last time, having won with a bit in hand over course and distance before that. She's not easily dismissed, but BARRONS LAND may edge this contest. The latter has had a couple of recent outings over fences, and ran well enough for third at Bangor last month. However, Laura Horsfall's inmate is of more interest back over hurdles with an amateur's 7lb allowance in her favour, and she gets the nod. Feach Amach may prove best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Barrons Land 2nd Starlyte 3rd Feach Amach

Lipstick Traces failed to help her cause by hanging left in the closing stages when third at Hexham recently. She still makes more appeal than Am I Bovvered, well beaten when fourth here last month, but a chance is taken on the newcomer CUSHENDALL. The Irish challenger is related to a winner over jumps in North America and could prove good enough at the first time of asking, with Brian Hughes' presence another positive.
Prediction : 1st Cushendall 2nd Lipstick Traces 3rd Am I Bovvered
