UK Horse Racing Tips: Sedgefield

AMANCIO should take all of the beating. He won his maiden hurdle at Chepstow in taking fashion last season and almost followed up in this company at Ludlow last time. Jockey Isabelle Ryder negates his penalty courtesy of her 7lb claim and he can get the better of point-to-point winner Idaho Valley. Valette would be interesting if there is money around for her.
Prediction : 1st Amancio 2nd Idaho Valley 3rd Valette

Bathgate has won here before and commands respect, while Kaviar Wood is expected to show improved form now he's sent handicapping. That being said, INFERNO SACREE gets the verdict because he's dropped in class and is beginning to look really well handicapped again off 99. You only have to go back three starts for when he finished second here off 103.
Prediction : 1st Inferno Sacree 2nd Bathgate 3rd Kaviar Wood

FORMEL PARK has only had the two starts over fences and she didn't let her Ludlow fall knock her confidence as she won over C&D last time. With that first win under her belt, she's taken to kick on and keep progressing. The booking of Brian Hughes is another tick in her box and she can get the better of Huit Reflets and Blended Stealth.
Prediction : 1st Formel Park 2nd Huit Reflets 3rd Blended Stealth

Harper Valley has won off a higher mark in the past and showed signs of a resurgence when third at Uttoxeter. Monaco Rules remains unexposed off his current mark and could shape well in this lower grade, but AVALON BEACH also has plenty of scope. Chris Grant's inmate opened his account over timber with a markedly improved effort over 2m1f here and should go close returning to this longer trip for his handicap debut.
Prediction : 1st Avalon Beach 2nd Harper Valley 3rd Monaco Rules

LARGY TRAIN won easily over C&D last year and returned to this venue with another fine effort on his latest start. Beaten less than a length into second on that occasion, a 2lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from turning the tables with the winner El Muchacho. The latter will likely give another good account, while the consistent Couldbeaweapon is usually in the mix at this level.
Prediction : 1st Largy Train 2nd El Muchacho 3rd Couldbeaweapon

WILLIAM YEATS is taken to make the most of his experience and come out best. He made a promising Rules debut when second over C&D last month and that run should have brought him on a good deal. Donald McCain sent out last year's winner and Laristote should be noted for any market support, while Drakaris is a newcomer to keep an eye on representing Dan Skelton's powerful yard.
Prediction : 1st William Yeats 2nd Laristote 3rd Drakaris
