UK Horse Racing Tips: Leicester

EMILY REBECCA did not appear to stay 1m4f at Chepstow a couple of weeks ago but Richard Hannon's filly is the one to beat based on her two previous seconds over this trip. Ottoman showed promise when third at Bath last time and could prove to be the main threat, although Respiro Solitario and Abstract Art are others with valid form claims.
Prediction : 1st Emily Rebecca 2nd Ottoman 3rd Respiro Solitario

PROJECT INCHEON displayed plenty of promise when filling third place on his racecourse bow over 6f at Redcar a couple of weeks ago and Archie Watson's colt clearly sets the standard based on that evidence. The rest with race experience do not inspire much confidence, so Amberia and Runswick have to be noted in the market ahead of their debuts.
Prediction : 1st Project Incheon 2nd Amberia 3rd Runswick

JACK THE TOOTH caught the eye despite finishing eighth on his debut over 6f at Windsor recently and the Twilight Son gelding could put that experience to good use here. Explosion is out of a mare who won the Irish 1,000 Guineas and Yorkshire Oaks, so he has to be considered ahead of his racecourse bow. Parole Officer and Sovereign Lord are others to note in the market.
Prediction : 1st Jack The Tooth 2nd Explosion 3rd Parole Officer

Korroor won in this grade over 6f at Newcastle, despite hanging left in the closing stages, and could have a say in proceedings. However, IRISH DANCER looks to have the stronger form, having landed a handicap over the minimum trip at Catterick last month, and Declan Carroll's sprinter could prove the one to side with at this level. War Zone has won in classified company on the all-weather and could shape well on his belated turf debut.
Prediction : 1st Irish Dancer 2nd Korroor 3rd War Zone

A runner-up at Nottingham on his reappearance, ARCHIVIST can be considered unlucky not to have finished closer to the winner. The son of Dubawi failed to get a clear run at a crucial stage and has strong claims of going one better on only his second start for the William Haggas yard. Clouds Hill came up short when making a bold bid from the front at Musselburgh on his debut. He merits consideration, along with Silent Storm and New York Minute.
Prediction : 1st Archivist 2nd Clouds Hill 3rd Silent Storm

CHALK MOUNTAIN finished a strong third at Kempton on last month's reappearance. Stuart Kittow's charge may have done all his winning on the all-weather so far, but a short-head defeat at Newbury last summer offers encouragement he can come good on the turf, and he gets the vote. The application of blinkers should help Commanding Prince settle better and he can get involved, while better is expected from Liamarty Dreams in this lower grade.
Prediction : 1st Chalk Mountain 2nd Commanding Prince 3rd Liamarty Dreams

Pitched into a 0-100 contest at Ripon on his seasonal reappearance in April, FLICKERING HALO made little impact - but it was a different story at Newcastle last month, where he was able to record a narrow success. Tim Easterby's charge is only 1lb higher back on turf and is expected to go close once again. Show Biz Kid and Giselles Defence can battle it out for second place.
Prediction : 1st Flickering Halo 2nd Show Biz Kid 3rd Giselles Defence

MISS SHOW DOWN kept on into fourth despite looking outpaced at Goodwood on her return to action last month, having won from 4lb lower at Bath in September. The unexposed daughter of Showcasing should be suited by the stiff nature of this track and is expected to progress today, although Catterick scorer and previous C&D winner Tees Aggregates should make a good fist of things. The consistent Toolatetonegotiate can pick up some minor money.
Prediction : 1st Miss Show Down 2nd Tees Aggregates 3rd Toolatetonegotiate
