UK Horse Racing Tips: Perth

The consistent EMILY LOVE broke her hurdling duck in no uncertain terms at Limerick last month and Gordon Elliott's mare should be a tough nut to crack on these terms. Hexham scorer Late Night Drama has far less to prove than many and is the clear danger, although bumper winner Moonbow, who makes his debut over timber, should not be dismissed.
Prediction : 1st Emily Love 2nd Late Night Drama 3rd Moonbow

JET PATROL travelled strongly into contention, but had been too keen earlier in the contest to see out 2m2f at Kelso a fortnight ago. The eight-year-old could build on that promising effort now dropped to 2m. Away She Goes finished a place in front of the selection when third in that event and looks an obvious threat given her current form, while Gonnino is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Jet Patrol 2nd Away She Goes 3rd Gonnino

Just Dottie made it two C&D successes on the trot last month and must be respected with Sean Bowen aboard once again, but preference is for the unexposed THE LAST CLOUD. A facile winner of a maiden over track and trip, he enters handicaps from a seemingly fair mark and it would come as no great surprise were he to find further progress. Simple Star can chase the pair home.
Prediction : 1st The Last Cloud 2nd Just Dottie 3rd Simple Star

Despite not jumping with fluency, SCHMILSSON justified favouritism readily over track and trip last month and is just 7lb higher. Olly Murphy's six-year-old makes only his second start over fences and could have lots more to offer. Salamanca Bay occupied the runner-up berth at Worcester and the booking of Brian Hughes catches the eye on his debut for a new stable. Last-time-out Hexham scorer Dream Jet is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Schmilsson 2nd Salamanca Bay 3rd Dream Jet

STANS THE MAN completed a double by 12 lengths over an extended 3m3f at Stratford last week and a 9lb rise might underestimate the authority he showed that day. If the eight-year-old remains in similar form, he will prove hard to beat again. Riaan took the silver medal home in a Grade 3 handicap at the Punchestown Festival and commands the utmost respect for the Gordon Elliott team. Young Buster looks best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Stans The Man 2nd Riaan 3rd Young Buster

IMPERIAL ALEX filled the runner-up spot in a stronger event at Uttoxeter on his most recent start and the handicapper might have been kind to only put him up 1lb. With a similar effort, he could be the one to beat. Hardy Diamond finished second at Kilbeggan last time and makes her first start in a handicap over fences so she has to be considered. Glen Cannel is another to keep an eye on.
Prediction : 1st Imperial Alex 2nd Hardy Diamond 3rd Glen Cannel

Having found only a subsequent winner too strong on his handicap bow over 2m4f at Ffos Las last month, THE FLYING POET makes plenty of appeal off an unchanged mark. The extra half-mile should suit the son of Milan and a first career victory could be imminent. Man Of Action opened his account at Hexham and a 5lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold bid. Gary Rutherford's charge is feared most, ahead of Donso Star.
Prediction : 1st The Flying Poet 2nd Man Of Action 3rd Donso Star

Happy Index notched a fourth victory over hurdles when landing the spoils here last month and she's sure to prove popular in her follow-up bid. However, Olly Murphy's mare could be worth taking on off a career-high mark with TRUE DESTINY. The veteran arrives on the back of a solid third at Downpatrick and he may prove slightly better handicapped raiding these shores. Kelso scorer Our Girl Sal completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st True Destiny 2nd Happy Index 3rd Our Girl Sal
