UK Horse Racing Tips: Cartmel

Despite having a penalty to shoulder it is difficult to oppose CAUGHTINYOURTRANCE. A facile winner over C&D last month, James Moffatt's six-year-old has far less to prove than many and looks to have been found another fine opportunity. Sang Pour Sang, who finished third, albeit well beaten over fences here latest, could be the main threat. Mighty Fleur is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Caughtinyourtrance 2nd Sang Pour Sang 3rd Mighty Fleur

HOPE HILL drew clear to record a comfortable success at Bangor last month, an effort for which he was subsequently raised 7lb in the handicap. Given wind surgery since then and now fitted with a first-time tongue-tie, the unexposed son of Sageburg may well have more in the locker. Jlow arrives following a brace of third-place finishes and is respected, along with Kingston Bresil, who didn't run too badly under Izzie Hill at Worcester latest.
Prediction : 1st Hope Hill 2nd Jlow 3rd Kingston Bresil

A number of these arrive in excellent form and so only a tentative vote can go to BITTALEMON. The daughter of Dubawi struck at the third time of asking over hurdles recently and, now sent handicapping from an opening mark of 112, she could find further progress. Just a neck separated Saligo Bay (winner) and Book of Secrets (second) over C&D last time out. The pair should be closely matched once again and both are respected, while others to note include Winds Of Winter and Miss Maverick.
Prediction : 1st Bittalemon 2nd Saligo Bay 3rd Book of Secrets

WUDYA appeared to have plenty in hand when winning over 2m3f at Bangor a couple of weeks ago and the six-year-old merits the utmost respect on the back of that performance, despite a 5lb rise. Evenwood Sonofagun chased home the selection on that occasion and is likely to be in the mix once again, while Al Sayah and Go Go Chicago are others with strong form claims.
Prediction : 1st Wudya 2nd Evenwood Sonofagun 3rd Al Sayah

Recent C&D winner Cloughroe has to be noted once again but marginal preference is for RIVER OF JOY. Mickey Bowen's eight-year-old bolted up on her chasing debut over 3m at Hexham in May, and even a 7lb rise for that success could underestimate her potential over the larger obstacles. High Moon edges out No But I Will and Beny Nahar Road to be best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st River Of Joy 2nd Cloughroe 3rd High Moon

BUMPY EVANS made every yard of the running to complete a hat-trick in good style at Bangor last time and is now 9lb higher. The seven-year-old is improving at a rapid rate of knots and it would be no surprise to see him go in again. Ali Star Bert occupied the runner-up berth in this class over C&D last month and commands respect, along with last-time-out track and trip scorer Judicial Review.
Prediction : 1st Bumpy Evans 2nd Ali Star Bert 3rd Judicial Review

COULDBEAWEAPON had Lady's Present (third) behind when he took the silver medal home at Market Rasen earlier in the month and is expected to confirm that form. Sam England's charge lurks on an appealing rating and he could be the one to beat. Lady's Present is 1lb better off this time around and looks the main danger, while Rory's Story is another to watch out for.
Prediction : 1st Couldbeaweapon 2nd Ladys Present 3rd Rorys Story
