UK Horse Racing Tips: Hamilton

The well-handicapped Ignac Lamar won with something in hand over C&D last month and is likely to give another bold showing off just 4lb higher. However, there is also a lot to like about the chance held by TOMMYTWOHOOTS, who is back on his last winning mark and could offer a little more value, with Stephanie Dorey claiming 5lb in the saddle. Angel Of The Bay and Newyorkstateofmind are other attractively-weighted options to consider.
Prediction : 1st Tommytwohoots 2nd Ignac Lamar 3rd Angel Of The Bay

Better And Better and TRY STORM CAT look the pair to focus on after both made promising debuts. The former outran odds of 20/1 to finish a close second over 5f at Carlisle and should be capable of more now he steps up in trip. However, Try Storm Cat's third-placed finish over 6f at Pontefract gives him an edge in terms of proven stamina and Charlie Johnston's colt edges a narrow vote. Welbury and Snaafy are interesting newcomers to monitor in the betting.
Prediction : 1st Try Storm Cat 2nd Better And Better 3rd Welbury

VALIANCY showed the benefit of a run when he finished a close second to an odds-on favourite at Haydock 12 days ago. The son of Cracksman is an attractive proposition turned out quickly for a yard that wouldn't have many runners at this venue, but William Haggas seems to have found a good opening for the Newmarket raider to get off the mark at the third time of asking. Elsass and Canavan are suggested as the pair most likely to fill the places behind the selection.
Prediction : 1st Valiancy 2nd Elsass 3rd Canavan

On target over C&D last month before filling the runner-up spot when attempting to follow up here last Thursday, PARISIAC looks to have outstanding claims once again. A few of these, including Winged Messenger and Digital find themselves well handicapped, but Iain Jardine's in-form six-year-old can prove too strong - especially with Mohammed Tabti removing a handy 5lb. Wrestling Revenue can't be overlooked either.
Prediction : 1st Parisiac 2nd Winged Messenger 3rd Digital

A chance can be taken on FLOWSTATE, who didn't run too badly over the minimum trip at Catterick on his seasonal return last month. A 2lb ease in the handicap will do his chances no harm today, nor will the return to 6f, so it wouldn't be any great surprise were the low-mileage Bungle Inthejungle gelding to step forward. There are dangers aplenty though, perhaps none more so than Travis, who bumped into a real improver when second at Ayr three weeks ago. The Gay Blade is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Flowstate 2nd Travis 3rd The Gay Blade

Plenty are sure to fancy their chances in an open contest, but the vote goes to FRENCH HAVEN, who was narrowly denied at Nottingham latest when attempting to follow up on her earlier Newmarket triumph. Charlie Johnston's filly is able to compete from an unchanged mark and, from her handy draw, ought to have every chance of going one place better. Bellasio fared best of those to come from off the pace when finishing second over C&D a fortnight ago and is respected, while others to note include Rainwater and Cisco Disco.
Prediction : 1st French Haven 2nd Bellasio 3rd Rainwater
