UK Horse Racing Tips: Newmarket

Miss Starlet is the pick of those with experience but the level she sets is not very high and a chance can be taken on FIRST DUTY. The daughter of Showcasing is a full-sister to the Group 3-winning sprinter Sense Of Duty and she catches the eye as a result. The booking of Oisin Murphy is notable for Moon Target, while Quiescent is another newcomer to consider.
Prediction : 1st First Duty 2nd Moon Target 3rd Miss Starlet

UNDERSTUDY only found one too good in the Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot a month ago and the unexposed three-year-old may have further improvement left to come. With that in mind, she tops the shortlist ahead of Spirited Style, who looks to have a bright future based on her easy maiden success at Haydock in May. Chorus is more exposed than that pair but is capable of making the frame in a race of this nature, while similar comments apply to Caspi Star and Sueno.
Prediction : 1st Understudy 2nd Spirited Style 3rd Chorus

LEADMAN won a stronger event over C&D earlier in the month and a 4lb rise for that success may not be enough to stop him from following up here. Spirit Of Farhh has not been disgraced on his last couple of starts in small fields and should not be underestimated, while Mythical Composer and Sweet Fantastic are the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Leadman 2nd Spirit Of Farhh 3rd Mythical Composer

PAY ATTENTION failed to back up his Nottingham success when taking the silver medal home at Yarmouth earlier in the month, but that was still a pleasing display. The son of Mohaather competes off an unchanged rating and will prove hard to beat. Balayaged was expected to do the business at odds-on but could only manage third in a maiden at Ripon last time. However, he steps back into a handicap and has to be respected. Radical Design is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Pay Attention 2nd Balayaged 3rd Radical Design

Union Island was beaten into fourth when attempting to complete a four-timer at Bath last month and should remain competitive. Kaaranah is respected after his second at Kempton, but THATS MY BOY LUKE looks the one to side with. The four-year-old comfortably scored by three lengths in this class at Ripon last time and although this requires a career best, he may be up to the task with Tom Marquand booked.
Prediction : 1st Thats My Boy Luke 2nd Union Island 3rd Kaaranah

Trainer Stuart Williams has won three of the nine runnings of this contest, suggesting Nordic Games has been aimed at the race, and although last of nine at Kempton, connections try a first-time visor which makes him more interesting. Dashing Dick won this last season off 5lb lower and enters calculations, but this may go the way of June C&D winner ANOTHER ABBOT. Stepped up to 6f for the first time that day, he was value for more than the official length and a quarter margin, and an extra 5lb looks fair enough for his in-form yard.
Prediction : 1st Another Abbot 2nd Dashing Dick 3rd Nordic Games

DUTCH DECOY has been a grand servant for the Charlie Johnston yard, winning 10 races and hitting a top-three spot in 20 others. Six starts on the July course have seen four victories and a third, all over this trip, with three off higher marks, and after his recent success here, there may be another win from the eight-year-old now. Billyb ran his best race of the year with a half-length third at Doncaster when finishing well over a furlong shorter and looks a serious rival, while Yokkell drops in class and could also have a say.
Prediction : 1st Dutch Decoy 2nd Billyb 3rd Yokkell
