UK Horse Racing Tips: Newmarket

The market could provide informative with seven of the eleven contenders making their racecourse bow, so only a tentative vote goes to REEM RAK. Roger Varian's filly changed hands for 60,000gns as a yearling and is related to a few Group winners. This looks a good starting point and she could make an instant impression. Athena's War is the pick of those with experience after showing a little more when fifth at Leicester earlier in the month. Guesstimate makes some appeal on paper and is noted too.
Prediction : 1st Reem Rak 2nd Athenas War 3rd Guesstimate

Savvy Disko showed ability when third on debut at Newmarket earlier this month and could take a big leap forward to have a say, but the vote goes to CHAIN LINK. James Horton's youngster progressed from his first start to outrun his odds of 33/1 to hit the woodwork at Haydock last month and is likely to have more to offer. Major Neigh Sayer failed to justify favouritism when second at Newcastle, but he isn't one to write off.
Prediction : 1st Chain Link 2nd Savvy Disko 3rd Major Neigh Sayer

STUDY OF WORDS benefitted from the experience when fifth on debut to relish the step up in trip to fill the runner-up spot at Goodwood last month. Charlie Appleby's juvenile looks to have found a good opportunity to shed his maiden tag at the third time of asking. Sayedaati Saadati has improved with each of his three outings and the son of St Mark's Basilica has to be respected. Aussie Pearl can beat El Carrusel home for third.
Prediction : 1st Study Of Words 2nd Sayedaati Saadati 3rd Aussie Pearl

Although he performed with credit on his latest third at Newbury, Bourbon Blues may need some improvement to defy an official rating of 97 on his nursery bow. The Space Blues gelding could benefit from today's extra quarter-mile distance, but last-time-out winners Commanding Officer and EXPLOSION are more compelling. Preference is for the latter, who completed a double at Chelmsford 34 days ago with real authority and an 8lb rise looks surmountable.
Prediction : 1st Explosion 2nd Commanding Officer 3rd Bourbon Blues

Having supplemented a fine second in a competitive handicap at York with a third career victory at Southwell last month, MAYBE NOT could still be a step ahead of the assessor. The daughter of Pinatubo scored on her sole outing over 1m and she edges the vote over Orangesandlemons. Ed Bethell's filly arrives on the back of a career-best victory at Nottingham and isn't taken lightly, while fellow last-time-out winners Silent City and Naga add further spice to the mix.
Prediction : 1st Maybe Not 2nd Orangesandlemons 3rd Silent City

Superior Choice cost a whopping 1,100,000gns as a yearling and the beautifully-bred son of Dubawi has to be monitored in the betting on debut. However, POETRY OF TIME finished over five lengths clear of the third when hitting the crossbar at Salisbury earlier this month, shaping as if this extra furlong would suit. William Haggas' colt could take another step forward and looks the one to beat. Any market confidence behind newcomer Waves Of The Sea would be interesting.
Prediction : 1st Poetry Of Time 2nd Superior Choice 3rd Waves Of The Sea

The hat-trick seeking Quiescent is bound to attract plenty of support, especially with her latest victory coming over C&D. However, a 5lb rise might open the door for DARK SHORE. The son of Dark Angel has been gelded since his third over a mile here last month and was kindly dropped 1lb. The drop back a furlong in trip and booking of William Buick gives him plenty of appeal. Romantic Twilight carries a 6lb penalty for her Yarmouth success, but would be foolish to dismiss.
Prediction : 1st Dark Shore 2nd Quiescent 3rd Romantic Twilight
