UK Horse Racing Tips: Newton Abbot

A promising third on her hurdles bow at Warwick earlier in the month, SHARP GLANCE is entitled to have plenty of improvement forthcoming and she can get off the mark here. The Jamie Snowden yard can do little wrong at present, and Jack N Jones looks to be a key player on her hurdles debut, along with And She Was.
Prediction : 1st Sharp Glance 2nd Jack N Jones 3rd And She Was

Denied by the narrowest of margins on his first start for the in-form James Owen team at Warwick last week, MR LE PHILOSOPHE looks capable of gaining compensation on the rise in distance. Stablemate Market House arrives on the back of a victory on the level at Brighton, and he is of interest on his return to this sphere with Alex Chadwick taking off a valuable 5lb. Runner-up here last time out, Stinginhisstep is another to consider, along with Privilege.
Prediction : 1st Mr Le Philosophe 2nd Market House 3rd Stinginhisstep

This can go the way of DARING PLAN, who was not beaten far on his first start after wind surgery when third at Fontwell recently. Stepping up slightly in trip promises improvement, and he gets the vote ahead of Tellairsue, who has been placed on his last two starts and should enjoy a return to this distance. Illogical Logic has strong claims if bouncing back to the form of his fourth at Doncaster two starts ago.
Prediction : 1st Daring Plan 2nd Tellairsue 3rd Illogical Logic

Kick Up A Storm has been given a break since he failed to complete a hat-trick over hurdles with a disappointing effort at Doncaster last November. Switching to fences could rekindle his interest and a betting check should be revealing. However, experienced chasers Planned Paradise and course-specialist INVESTMENT MANAGER look the pair to focus on. The latter won this race off 3lb higher last year and has a big chance of staging a repeat.
Prediction : 1st Investment Manager 2nd Planned Paradise 3rd Kick Up A Storm

Having made all over 3m1f at Warwick earlier this month, Striking A Pose warrants respect off just 2lb higher. However, Joe Tizzard's charge may find it tougher dominating a bigger field on this drop back in distance and AL SAYAH looks the most solid proposition. Neil Mulholland's mare arrives on the back of a career-best triumph over C&D and a 6lb rise from the assessor looks workable. Paddy De Pole is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Al Sayah 2nd Striking A Pose 3rd Paddy De Pole

YCCS PORTOCERVO shaped better than the bare result when weakening into fourth at Ludlow last month after some less-than-fluent jumping over the final fences. Moreover, the Martaline gelding's stamina may have been stretched by the 3m distance and this 2m5f trip could prove fruitful. The biggest threat may emerge from Cap Du Mathan, who arrives on the back of a respectable third at Cheltenham, ahead of On Springs.
Prediction : 1st Yccs Portocervo 2nd Cap Du Mathan 3rd On Springs
