UK Horse Racing Tips: York

Victories have been elusive for DANZAN of late, but he has dropped to a highly-attractive rating as a result. This course holds no fears for him and the Tim Easterby-trained veteran is well worth chancing from 8lb lower than his last wining mark. Wen Moon and Rock Opera, who sports a first-time visor, are others that boast some respectable efforts here, while Beale Street and last-time-out winners Protest Rally and Muscika are certainly no back numbers based on their peak form.
Prediction : 1st Danzan 2nd Rock Opera 3rd Wen Moon

TADEJ wasn't beaten far despite finishing fifth in a class 2 novice over C&D recently and could well take some stopping if he settles better now he has some more experience. However, there are several appealing newcomers that merit betting checks. Richard Fahey, who won this in 2023, sends out two notable contenders in the form of Advance Twentyfive and Mister Freeman, while Lieutenant Kije and Alfa Patisserie are other attractively-bred debutants to keep an eye on.
Prediction : 1st Tadej 2nd Advance Twentyfive 3rd Mister Freeman

Jm Jungle has finished second to the progressive American Affair on his last two starts but with that rival out of the way, this previous course winner is a must for consideration. However, he has 3lb more to shoulder here and another old rival of his, VENTURE CAPITAL could be the way to go. A ready winner at Ripon last month, the Kevin Ryan-trained gelding has fewer miles on the clock and could be better equipped to cope with his revised mark. The upwardly mobile Loom, Habooba and Duran complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Venture Capital 2nd Jm Jungle 3rd Loom

Term Of Endearment failed to land a blow in Dubai on her first start for the William Haggas yard, but she has to be respected judged on the six-year-old's success in the Lillie Langtry last year. However, SUENO finished two places behind Scenic when fourth in a Listed contest at Goodwood at the start of the month, but she did well to get as close as she did considering her troubled passage. With Ryan Moore taking over in the plate, it would be no surprise to see her overturn that form to score.
Prediction : 1st Sueno 2nd Term Of Endearment 3rd Scenic

White Crown Star produced another good effort to make the frame at Newmarket at the start of the month and needs considering, despite a 2lb higher rating. Sweet Fantastic outran odds of 16/1 to finish a close third at Chester last time and is one to note, but it may pay to side with FRANKIES DREAM. Jennie Candlish's charge finished a fair fifth over track and trip earlier in the month and could defy a 4lb higher mark with Hector Crouch booked.
Prediction : 1st Frankies Dream 2nd White Crown Star 3rd Sweet Fantastic

MUNSIF makes his handicap debut off a mark of 87 which may not be enough to stop him from landing a hat-trick. The winner of both his starts over a mile and a quarter, the son of Sea The Stars made all last month at Pontefract with any amount in hand. Far Ahead takes a big step up in trip after winning over seven furlongs and is interesting, but the recent Ascot second Cape Breton looks the bigger danger off just 4lb higher.
Prediction : 1st Munsif 2nd Cape Breton 3rd Far Ahead

Mums Tipple may not be the force of old, but he ran well off 2lb lower last time out when third here. He can make the frame but preference is for DELICACY, who won that contest and seems to be going from strength to strength for trainer James Owen. Arctic Dawn is another to take seriously in first-time cheekpieces, with the return to seven furlongs and the booking of Hollie Doyle of interest.
Prediction : 1st Delicacy 2nd Mums Tipple 3rd Arctic Dawn
