UK Horse Racing Tips: Hexham

TRINITY STREET might be able to edge out Azahara Palace in a tight one to call. She won an Irish point-to-point in good style before posting a solid second on her Rules bow in a Carlisle bumper. Now making her hurdling debut, she's expected to have been well schooled at home and makes a bit more appeal than the Wetherby runner-up. Gintime is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Trinity Street 2nd Azahara Palace 3rd Gintime

TASHKHAN is a very interesting recruit to the hurdling ranks. Brian Ellison's charge was rated 116 at his best on the Flat and placed in the 2022 Group 1 Prix du Cadran behind a certain Kyprios. If taking to this new discipline, he should take some stopping. Kool Raoul has finished runner-up both here and at Kelso and heads the list of dangers from Whiskey On Ice.
Prediction : 1st Tashkhan 2nd Kool Raoul 3rd Whiskey On Ice

King Gris boasts every chance coming in here under a penalty for winning at Ayr last week, but preference is for GETAWAY MASTER. Micky Hammond's charge comfortably scored at Carlisle last month and might be able to kick on now for these relatively new connections. He won on heavy ground when trained in Ireland and ticks a lot of boxes. Gege Ville can also make his presence felt.
Prediction : 1st Getaway Master 2nd King Gris 3rd Gege Ville

MOVEONBUY won at the second time of asking in handicap company at Cartmel in June and it wouldn't be a huge surprise if the daughter of Getaway had more to offer off 4lb higher. Wee Alki is likely to be in the mix following his C&D success last month, while the returning Superior Glance and West Lawn, who sports cheekpieces for the first time, appear best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Moveonbuy 2nd Wee Alki 3rd Superior Glance

HEEZTHEBOY has improved plenty for stepping up in trip this season with a pair of wide-margin successes here and at Wetherby. Despite returning to 2m4f, Gary Hanmer's gelding doesn't appear to have finished his progression just yet and gets the vote ahead of Truckers Cruising, who has a 7lb penalty for winning at Ayr last week, and Walking On A Dream.
Prediction : 1st Heeztheboy 2nd Truckers Cruising 3rd Walking On A Dream

DIXIE COWBOY won on his first try over the larger obstacles at Sedgefield and is likely to step forward from that performance, despite a 5lb rise from the handicapper. Blended Stealth fell early on in the aforementioned contest but had shown promise when runner-up at the same venue prior to that, and has to be worth another chance. Treaty Boy completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Dixie Cowboy 2nd Blended Stealth 3rd Treaty Boy
