UK Horse Racing Tips: Taunton

There was a good word for El Fabiolo's half-brother NO BOUNDARIES on his introduction at Exeter and although he could only manage fourth behind a stable companion who has won again since, there was enough encouragement in the display to warrant him a second chance. Apollon Forlonge made a decent start to his career at the same circuit, but Navarau cost 62,000 euros and David Pipe's newcomer is feared more.
Prediction : 1st No Boundaries 2nd Navarau 3rd Apollon Forlonge

Harry Fry went to 78,000 pounds to snap up Stanners Glen after the point-to-point winner made a successful debut under Rules in a Tipperary bumper. He could be a decent prospect, but MORRADI showed Flat ability on the continent and David Pipe's new recruit might have a touch more speed. Is This For Real has hurdling experience on his side, although he does need to step forward from that Market Rasen fourth. Knock Off Soxs is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Morradi 2nd Stanners Glen 3rd Is This For Real

PREMIER was a disappointing even-money favourite when only third on his handicap hurdle debut at Plumpton, but he will improve as he picks up experience and can put the record straight now encountering more testing conditions. Getarose steps outside of maiden company and an initial rating of 97 definitely seems workable. Exactly Right is another going handicapping for the first time off a nice mark, with Gms Prince and Rukaana a couple more to consider.
Prediction : 1st Premier 2nd Getarose 3rd Exactly Right

Smugglers Haven will have her supporters and rightly so given she ended a run of second-placed efforts when scoring last time out at Cheltenham. She makes plenty of appeal, as does Below The Radar, but BERTIE WOOSTER gets in at the bottom of the weights and could be the way to go. If building on his latest neck second over track and trip, Joe Tizzard's gelding would have a great chance.
Prediction : 1st Bertie Wooster 2nd Smugglers Haven 3rd Below The Radar

MELTON MOSSY refused to race at Ludlow so comes with risk attached, but either side of that he produced a solid second at Ffos Las and won last time out over C&D. James Bowen is a positive jockey booking and Evan Williams' gelding gets the nod ahead of Just A Rose, who was deemed good enough for the Grade 2 Mares' Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham in March. Anyharminasking is noted too.
Prediction : 1st Melton Mossy 2nd Just A Rose 3rd Anyharminasking

CHIEF O'HARA is one of two C&D winners in here and was really impressive in achieving that last time. There should be more to come from him over fences and it's going to take a big performance to deny him another victory. McGrath From Clune won at Hereford and then produced another solid effort in defeat at Newcastle, so heads the list of dangers from Chestnut Pete.
Prediction : 1st Chief OHara 2nd McGrath From Clune 3rd Chestnut Pete

SQUARE DU ROULE arrives here in good nick and looks the safe play in a trappy handicap hurdle for punters to solve. He was back to form when second at Plumpton and went one better at Exeter last time, and is worth sticking with while he's evidently on good terms with himself. Hardy Buck was impressive when scoring at Exeter last week and heads the list of dangers from Knightsbridge.
Prediction : 1st Square Du Roule 2nd Hardy Buck 3rd Knightsbridge
