UK Horse Racing Tips: Sandown

A major improver from first to second start when scoring for new connections at Ffos Las last month, KING'S CASTLE remains fairly treated off a 7lb higher mark and he can notch up an eighth career success. Foreseen has run with plenty of credit on each of his last three starts and dropping back to this trip could be a good move for Tony Carroll's charge. Mrembo has strong claims on his penultimate success at Bath, while Ocean Heights cannot be ruled out either.
Prediction : 1st Kings Castle 2nd Foreseen 3rd Mrembo

An unlucky third in Listed company over C&D last time out when short of room at a crucial stage, KILLAVIA didn't look out of place at that level and this appeals as an ideal opportunity to deservedly get off the mark. Well-backed into favouritism on debut at Newmarket last month, Butterfly Beach did well in finishing second and dropping back to 5f could prove a wise move by connections. Shams is another to consider, while Rouane should be monitored for marked support first time out.
Prediction : 1st Killavia 2nd Butterfly Beach 3rd Shams

This can go the way of CURRAN, who has experimented over a couple of distances this season, but has always looked most at home over this trip. A 1lb rise for a narrow defeat at Haydock last week could prove lenient and he can bounce back to winning ways, with the consistent Percy Shelley looking best placed to chase him home. Ahead of the latter at Goodwood last month was Al Khawaneej River (second), who is entitled to be thereabouts again, along with Kempton runner-up Moel Arthur.
Prediction : 1st Curran 2nd Percy Shelley 3rd Al Khawaneej River

WAR SUPREMO has taken his time to get the hang of things, but won readily enough at the eighth attempt at Doncaster over this trip when ridden from off the pace and an added 3lb may not be enough to stop him following up. The fact that Godolphin persevere with maiden Dangerman suggests he has ability. With blinkers added, he could find plenty of improvement for the Gosdens, while Jamie Osborne's Neardown may find plenty more after his first start since last September.
Prediction : 1st War Supremo 2nd Dangerman 3rd Neardown

Enough Already has to be of interest on his first start for Charlie Wallis after winning at Dundalk for Adrian McGuinness. Despite racing off 4lb higher here, he has won three times on turf. Roger Varian has won three of the last 10 runnings of this race and INDALO appears the sensible option. Fourth after weakening late on over further at Chelmsford, the drop back in trip off 1lb lower could see the lightly-raced gelding win for the third time on just his seventh start. Crack On Boys and Orbaan are others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Indalo 2nd Enough Already 3rd Crack On Boys

Beauty By My Side returned with a solid second in a better race at Newbury when finishing well over this trip after being left with plenty to do. He can go well off 1lb higher and may prove a serious biggest rival to CAPTAIN HARRY. Getting off the mark at the seventh attempt in a similar race at Haydock, he met plenty of trouble in running and did well to come out on top, suggesting an added 4lb may not stop him. Champion Again Ole is another to consider ahead of his handicap debut.
Prediction : 1st Captain Harry 2nd Beauty By My Side 3rd Champion Again Ole
