UK Horse Racing Tips: Market Rasen

LARAVIE took her time to learn her trade before winning on her seventh start over hurdles at Stratford and following up twice at Uttoxeter, the latest by 13 lengths in June. She has every chance of adding to that tally. Isle Of Sark showed plenty of improvement for the step up in trip when easily winning over a furlong further at Newton Abbot, while Intosomethinggood could settle better upped in trip as he looks for his hurdling hat-trick.
Prediction : 1st Laravie 2nd Isle Of Sark 3rd Intosomethinggood

Deploy To Spy has won four starts over hurdles including last time at Worcester where he kept on over further to score by close to three lengths. Cheekpieces are added here as he drops back in trip, and he might be the biggest danger to BENVOY. Upped 11lb for an easy win at Ascot in a better race in March, the four-year-old may have more to offer up in distance. Maghlaak has plenty to find, but he could still pick up third place prize money.
Prediction : 1st Benvoy 2nd Deploy To Spy 3rd Maghlaak

Castel Gandolfo won this last year and races off 5lb higher now after another C&D win last month, which will put him spot on for this. Goblet Of Fire is lightly raced over hurdles and warrants plenty of respect after a five-length third in the Swinton Hurdle at Haydock in May off the same mark, but SIR GALAHAD could be the one. Unbeaten over hurdles with four successes, a strongly-run race over this trip should play to his strengths, with an added 5lb unlikely to stop him winning once more.
Prediction : 1st Sir Galahad 2nd Goblet Of Fire 3rd Castel Gandolfo

Last year's hero SURE TOUCH hasn't been seen since finishing down the field at Ayr in April but has surely been laid out to land this event once again. First-time cheekpieces could help sharpen him up and from 1lb below last year's success, he should go close. Mickey Bowen boasts a strong hand with Statuario and Courtland, while Irish raiders Ballysax Hank and Ceanndana also merit respect. Horantzau D'airy bounced back to form with a creditable second at Uttoxeter in May and is just one more to consider.
Prediction : 1st Sure Touch 2nd Statuario 3rd Ballysax Hank

ROCKS UP LATE didn't show much over hurdles but the Vadamos gelding has completely transformed since being sent chasing. Three from three following an cosy success at Worcester last month, a further 8lb rise in the handicap could be lenient. Greenways recorded a narrow triumph at Uttoxeter latest but is respected from 3lb higher, while Prospect House, two from two over this C&D, is another to take seriously.
Prediction : 1st Rocks Up Late 2nd Greenways 3rd Prospect House

The hat-trick seeking Game Beaaa is likely to mount a bold bid after his 13-length romp over C&D last time, but his chance is there for all to see. Therefore, it may pay to side with SHARP GLANCE, who struck in this grade at Bangor earlier in the month and the assessor may have been kind to only put her up 5lb. Alan King's mare makes just her second handicap appearance and may have lots more to offer. Of the remainder, last-time-out Worcester scorer Scintillante makes the most appeal.
Prediction : 1st Sharp Glance 2nd Game Beaaa 3rd Scintillante

A Dublin Job hasn't finished outside of the top two in each of his last four outings, most recently finishing second at Stratford and is likely to be thereabouts. Leading Force continues to be in good form and is another to note, but ANOTHER LORD looks the way to go. The eight-year-old justified favouritism by just under two lengths at Uttoxeter last month and with the Mickey Bowen yard in brilliant form, he looks the one to beat again.
Prediction : 1st Another Lord 2nd A Dublin Job 3rd Leading Force
