UK Horse Racing Tips: Sedgefield

HERJA looked set to open her account before falling two out over an extended 2m3f at Bangor in July and it would be no surprise to see Patrick Griffin's mare make amends on this occasion. Kottayam is another with strong form claims but has to bounce back from a Market Rasen spill, while Lipstick Traces and Voodoo Angel are the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Herja 2nd Kottayam 3rd Lipstick Traces

The consistent IVANE hit the crossbar over 2m7f at Worcester last weekend and James Owen appears to have found an ideal opportunity for the seven-year-old to go one better. Luminaries has won four of his last six starts and should not be discounted, despite an underwhelming effort at Perth last time. Recent Market Rasen second Couldbeaweapon is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Ivane 2nd Luminaries 3rd Couldbeaweapon

BROKEN ICE bounced back to form when winning narrowly over 3m at Perth last month and the Irish raider is hard to oppose in this company, despite a 5lb rise. Spitalfield has been running well in defeat this summer and is likely to pose the biggest threat to the selection. The rest all have questions to answer, but Paddy De Pole should not be discounted for Paul Nicholls.
Prediction : 1st Broken Ice 2nd Spitalfield 3rd Paddy De Pole

LIMERICK LEADER has been a highly consistent sort since resuming his career over fences this summer and dropping back in trip should prove ideal as he looks to notch up a fourth career success. That may be at the main expense of the returning Too Cool Forshrule and Dream Jet, who shapes as though he will relish going up to this distance.
Prediction : 1st Limerick Leader 2nd Too Cool Forshrule 3rd Dream Jet

This can go the way of EXPRESS RUN, who may find improvement on the back of wind surgery, having run with plenty of credit over further at Kelso in May. Brian Hughes retaining the ride is a plus and he is narrowly preferred to recent Cartmel scorer The Navigator, who won on his last start here back in October. Annie Agnew and Mr Le Philosophe cannot be ruled out either.
Prediction : 1st Express Run 2nd The Navigator 3rd Mr Le Philosophe

Runner-up to a subsequent winner on her debut at Bangor, ELUSIVE POWER is likely to have plenty of improvement forthcoming and she can go one better for a trainer who has a good record here. Frammy improved for wind surgery when second at Worcester and he can follow the selection home, ahead of Stratford winner Fairlawn Skipper, who has a 7lb penalty to shoulder.
Prediction : 1st Elusive Power 2nd Frammy 3rd Fairlawn Skipper
