UK Horse Racing Tips: Wexford

SANTO SOSPIR was green on debut in a Punchestown bumper in February, but ran on strongly to get up by a neck. With that in mind, he could be hard to beat in a race of this nature. Luker's Tipple holds a mark of 118 after taking the runner-up berth in five maiden hurdles. He sets the standard and receives plenty of weight from Santo Sospir. Henry de Bromhead's newcomer Jasmine Pearl is worth checking for market strength.
Prediction : 1st Santo Sospir 2nd Lukers Tipple 3rd Jasmine Pearl

COLONIA VICTORIA has plenty of good form on the Flat in Europe and Paul Nolan's recruit got off the mark over hurdles in a mares' maiden hurdle at Cork. Her Flat speed will be a useful asset over this trip. Tatateo is proven over further if this develops into a battle. He appreciates better ground and has been generally solid over hurdles. Money Dancer hacked up in a maiden hurdle at Galway before finding the valuable Lartigue Hurdle in Listowel a tricky assignment, and a return to form wouldn't be surprising.
Prediction : 1st Colonia Victoria 2nd Tatateo 3rd Money Dancer

ROCKONLIAM was a shade keen when sixth on handicap debut at Gowran, but that was his first run for almost five months. The form of his Killarney maiden hurdle has been boosted and he is worth another chance off a handy weight in this condensed handicap. Bannow Blaze is on an appealing mark with Eoin Staples taking 7lb off his back, while a return to hurdling could reinvigorate Arch Enemy.
Prediction : 1st Rockonliam 2nd Bannow Blaze 3rd Arch Enemy

RING OF KERRY was strong in the market for a bumper at Listowel, but raced with the choke out and weakened out of contention. Interestingly, a tongue-tie is deployed and the suspicion is that he could show marked improvement. Attaho is a full-brother to multiple Grade 1 winner Allaho, so has more upside than most. King's Son has two mid-division finishes in maiden hurdles and could get closer in this company.
Prediction : 1st Ring Of Kerry 2nd Attaho 3rd Kings Son

This is a drop in class for GORGEOUS TOM, who has finished fourth in his last three races in Grade 1 company. He beat Monbeg Park by more than five lengths when they contested a Grade 3 novice chase at Cork almost a year ago and he could prove to be too good once again. Blizzard Of Oz has been building his experience over fences and is up in trip after being pipped by a head when last seen in a valuable novice handicap chase at Punchestown. Rocky's Diamond, who was successful at Grade 2 level over hurdles, impressed on his chasing debut at Galway last month. He is pitched straight into Listed class and is an intriguing runner.
Prediction : 1st Gorgeous Tom 2nd Blizzard Of Oz 3rd Rockys Diamond

TULLYHILL's mark of 145 warrants plenty of respect in this race. He posted a runner-up finish in a beginners' chase at Fairyhouse last season behind Majborough and, while it is a concern that he was pulled up in his last two races at Thurles and Punchestown, he has gone well fresh before. Fleur In The Park is a talented hurdler who showed that he has a future over fences when second on chasing debut at Gowran. Jacob's Ladder won a Grade 3 over flights and is sure to be well schooled for this first chasing assignment.
Prediction : 1st Tullyhill 2nd Fleur In The Park 3rd Jacobs Ladder

It may be best to side with RISKAWAY in a race that poses plenty of questions for punters. The form of his second place in a Thurles bumper has been well franked, while his next outing at Punchestown has also produced a host of winners. Willie Mullins runs Porthill, who makes his Rules debut after finishing runner-up in a point-to-point back in April 2022 and is sure to know his job. Emmet Mullins introduces a point-to-point graduate in Justatan, who won two races between the flags in 2023 and 2024.
Prediction : 1st Riskaway 2nd Porthill 3rd Justatan
