UK Horse Racing Tips: Sandown

Having briefly looked outpaced, RISING POWER displayed a willing attitude to make a winning debut in a class 2 novice at Newmarket last month. Charlie Appleby's colt scored a shade cosily and looks more than capable of defying a 6lb penalty in these calmer waters. Killavia should have learned plenty from her opening fourth at Haydock 21 days ago and may serve the most resistance to the selection, although newcomers Alasrae and Enricher are worth market checks.
Prediction : 1st Rising Power 2nd Killavia 3rd Alasrae

All Ways Glamorous regained the winning thread at Windsor 18 days ago and warrants respect given his upward trajectory. However, a 5lb higher mark and rise in class could leave Christopher Mason's charge vulnerable, which could leave the door open for BANG ON THE BELL. The six-year-old posted a respectable third in a 14-runner sprint at Lingfield last month and a 2lb nudge up in the ratings looks workable. Diamond Dreamer and Jacquelina are others of interest.
Prediction : 1st Bang On The Bell 2nd All Ways Glamorous 3rd Diamond Dreamer

You Sexy Thing shaped better than the beaten distance when finishing fourth on his debut over 6f at Newmarket last month and that experience should have taught him plenty. However, the son of Dark Angel isn't certain to stay today's extra furlong and it could be worth chancing newcomer SABA DESERT. Charlie Appleby's colt is a three parts-brother to smart middle-distance performer Spinning Wheel and he shouldn't be found lacking for stamina or class. Boiling Over can also figure.
Prediction : 1st Saba Desert 2nd You Sexy Thing 3rd Boiling Over

CHATURANGA didn't help his cause by hanging left when third in this grade at Redcar. Today's switch to blinkers could rectify that problem and Archie Watson's charge could be thereabouts at the finish competing off an unchanged mark. Promethean wasn't at his best when starting favourite at Windsor, but this slower ground will suit, and he cannot be ruled out with any confidence, while Yarmouth winner Charming Whisper could also make his presence felt.
Prediction : 1st Chaturanga 2nd Promethean 3rd Charming Whisper

MISS JUSTICE lost a shoe when failing to land the odds in maiden company at Wolverhampton. However, this longer distance could see the daughter of Justify in a better light, and she gets another chance with William Buick taking over the reins for her handicap debut. Kind Of Kiss is no forlorn hope based on last month's fourth at Newbury, while Approval has yet to get his act together so far this season, but is on a workable mark if bouncing back.
Prediction : 1st Miss Justice 2nd Kind Of Kiss 3rd Approval

The progressive ANTELOPE landed a double in good style when successful at Leicester last time. The son of Lope De Vega is upped in grade, but remains of interest given the ease of his latest success and the hat-trick beckons. Premier finished a creditable third at Chester recently and there looks more to come from him, while Moonjid is unexposed and could also feature if staying this far on his only second start of the year.
Prediction : 1st Antelope 2nd Premier 3rd Moonjid

The draw has been kind to LAST SHAMARDAL, who was able to leave a below-par Beverley run behind him to finish a creditable sixth in a typically warm class 4 event at York latest. He will need more to come out on top, but an ease in class will do his chances no harm, nor will a 1lb drop in the handicap. Kosometsuke went agonisingly close at Salisbury last time out when attempting to follow up on his earlier Kempton triumph. Roger Varian's charge remains of considerable interest, while Golden Thorn is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Last Shamardal 2nd Kosometsuke 3rd Golden Thorn

A chance can be taken on top-weight KENTUCKY RIVER, who didn't run too badly when fourth over 1m2f at Newmarket last month. The son of Camelot is a half-brother to Melbourne Cup winner Protectionist, so this staying trip could unlock plenty of improvement and he's on a fair mark if it can work the oracle. Hamilton scorer Hi Ya Mal gets the services of a red-hot Oisin Murphy today and merits the utmost respect from 4lb higher while Synergism, who is 3lb well-in having been narrowly denied at Lingfield latest, is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Kentucky River 2nd Hi Ya Mal 3rd Synergism
