UK Horse Racing Tips: Leicester

Karakula Dancer looks an interesting newcomer as a son of five-time Group One winner Palace Pier, and he could go close for a yard in excellent form, although the more experienced SIRIUS A may have his measure. Fourth over a furlong shorter at Newbury and beaten less than three lengths on debut, he looked the sort to improve with racing. Kanishka is another to consider after an Ayr second, but that was his third start and he may have less improvement to come than his rivals.
Prediction : 1st Karakula Dancer 2nd Sirius A 3rd Kanishka

Course and distance winner SHARK TWO ONE has the best recent form after his second at Doncaster last time out and the step back up in trip is a major positive. Two of his four career victories have been over seven furlongs and he may make the most of the opportunity. Royal Jet scored over C&D in 2023, but he heeds to bounce back to form to win this, while Cammy could sneak into third spot.
Prediction : 1st Shark Two One 2nd Royal Jet 3rd Cammy

Tony Carroll won this race last season and has a good chance again with CINDY LOU WHO, a winner last time out at Bath over half-a-furlong shorter. Upped 4lb for that success, she tops the shortlist. Kisskodi strolled home at Brighton last month by close to three lengths but he has been put up 9lb for that and he may have to settle for second, leaving Project Black for third.
Prediction : 1st Cindy Lou Who 2nd Kisskodi 3rd Project Black

Trojan Truth is a previous course-and-distance winner that needs to be taken seriously, despite going up 3lb for his victory at Windsor 12 days ago, while Marinakis would be an interesting contender if he attracts support in the betting on his belated turf debut. However, slender preference is for DOUGLAS DC, who may find some improvement now he steps back up in trip.
Prediction : 1st Douglas Dc 2nd Trojan Truth 3rd Marinakis

Clipsham Noble was a surprise winner with first-time cheekpieces added in a similarly modest race at Brighton 12 days ago and looks risky on his bid to register back-to-back wins off 3lb higher. With that in mind, it might pay to focus on FREEDOM BAY, who was doing her best work in the closing stages when third over 7f here last month. Up The Anti completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Freedom Bay 2nd Clipsham Noble 3rd Up The Anti

BEACH POINT looks the percentage call in this tricky-looking handicap. Having finished second on five of his last six starts, there are obvious chinks in his armour, but he counters that with reliability and looks the most solid option. Bobacious and Renesmee are closely matched based past form and could have a say, while Bearwith runs off 5lb below his last winning mark and cannot be ruled out. The recent Yarmouth winner, Queen's Company, needs another personal best on these terms.
Prediction : 1st Beach Point 2nd Bobacious 3rd Renesmee
