UK Horse Racing Tips: Hamilton

The return to soft ground has brought the best out of James Park Woods. The veteran bids for a hat-trick after victories at Bath and Brighton, but the less-exposed ONE MORE BOTTLE will also relish the underfoot conditions. Lizzie Quinlan's four-year-old has held his form well since tasting success at Ayr in July and he gets the nod. On The Bubble has been in the mix of late and is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st One More Bottle 2nd James Park Woods 3rd On The Bubble

Kevin Ryan trained last year's winner and has strong claims once again with SHOWTOWN. There was cut in the ground when the son of Showcasing went close over C&D last month and he could prove tough to beat with further improvement a distinct possibility. Passing Thought arrives with solid claims on her close second at Goodwood, while Nevasca Cinza showed promise at Carlisle on debut and is not out of it either.
Prediction : 1st Showtown 2nd Passing Thought 3rd Nevasca Cinza

Dandy Style placed at Thirsk on his nursery debut, finishing just ahead of Mighty Magnus and Desert Jungle, but JUNGLE MONARCH reverts to the minimum trip with every chance after failing to see out 6f at Windsor on his handicap bow. He finished in front of a subsequent winner when third at Musselburgh before that and Karl Burke's charge gets the vote on that form.
Prediction : 1st Jungle Monarch 2nd Dandy Style 3rd Mighty Magnus

A major disappointment on his most recent start at Catterick, CHICO MAGNIFICA should appreciate a return to Hamilton having scored here last month, and a mark of 79 on his handicap debut could prove manageable. Stepping up in trip could bring about improvement in Twilight Safari and he can have a say along with course specialist Spanish Hustle, who drops in grade.
Prediction : 1st Chico Magnifica 2nd Twilight Safari 3rd Spanish Hustle

The value may lie with the veteran NEVER DARK, whose most recent win came over C&D around this time last year off 10lb higher. Iain Jardine's charge has 5lb claimer Alex Jary back on board, which may help him to see off fellow track-and-trip winner Digital and Military Girl, who has run with credit recently. Keldeo's form might have dipped of late, but she remains one to monitor for an in-form stable.
Prediction : 1st Never Dark 2nd Military Girl 3rd Digital

All of these have questions to answer but if MISTER SKY BLUE runs to his best, he has every chance. Beaten two lengths when third at Catterick after a slow start, his sole previous victory came over C&D off 1lb higher and he gets the nod. Stirrup Cup won't mind the ground and he can go well having won off a higher rating. I Need Your Love is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Mister Sky Blue 2nd Stirrup Cup 3rd I Need Your Love

Evocative Spark has won before with some cut in the ground and off marks as high as 90. Although not the force of old, he is one to consider in a first-time visor, but WORLD OF DARCY gets his conditions for the first time since last November and can make the most of a drop in class. Kode Secret could hit a top-three finish if he takes a step forward from his Leicester third.
Prediction : 1st World Of Darcy 2nd Evocative Spark 3rd Kode Secret
