UK Horse Racing Tips: Southwell

FLASH IN THE PARK scored over 2m at this venue last month and this appears to be an ideal opportunity to follow up, despite a 5lb rise. Begin The Luck also struck on his most recent outing and is likely to pose the biggest threat to the selection. The rest all have questions to answer, but Martalmix'jac is the pick of them.
Prediction : 1st Flash In The Park 2nd Begin The Luck 3rd Martalmixjac

ALI STAR BERT had plenty in hand when racking up a double over C&D last month and the 10-year-old can make it a hat-trick, despite a 7lb rise. Golan Loop chased home the selection two starts ago before winning at Hereford. He is likely to be a danger once again, while Lilting Verse and My Bobby Dazzler complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Ali Star Bert 2nd Golan Loop 3rd Lilting Verse

COOL CUSTOMER was second over C&D on his Rules debut and the five-year-old can go one better with the benefit of that experience under his belt. Eustace Grenier caught the eye when fourth on his racecourse bow and he should not be underestimated. Elderflower Tonic cost 80,000 pounds after winning a point-to-point in November and any market support for her would have to be noted.
Prediction : 1st Cool Customer 2nd Eustace Grenier 3rd Elderflower Tonic

LEGENDARY LUKE was a 100,000-pounds purchase from the point-to-point ranks and confirmed the promise of his second in a Worcester bumper when making a successful hurdling debut at Ffos Las. Along with Musselburgh scorer Red Oak, he has a penalty to contend with but Isabelle Ryder's claim will help on that score. Shotgun Rider may have bumped into one at Leicester and shouldn't be far away, while Seaniecon must be respected on his Rules bow.
Prediction : 1st Legendary Luke 2nd Red Oak 3rd Shotgun Rider

Having chased home Mydaddypaddy at Carlisle, HARBOUR ISLAND wasn't able to perform to the same level at Newbury. That was a good maiden hurdle, though, and Olly Murphy's dual bumper winner is given another chance. Liam Mera Kai has been threatening to land a race of this nature, and Is This For Real won't be far away, but So Proud is feared most, with the five-year-old joining the O'Neill team since landing a Haydock bumper for Don Cantillon.
Prediction : 1st Harbour Island 2nd So Proud 3rd Liam Mera Kai

FEET ON THE GROUND relished the step up in trip when filling second place over C&D last month and the eight-year-old can defy a 2lb rise to go one better on this occasion. Second at Market Rasen on her most recent start, Time Was is another with strong form claims, while After Many Days and Broadway Honey are others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Feet On The Ground 2nd Time Was 3rd After Many Days

BOLLIN THOU won very easily at Uttoxeter last week and, given how unexposed he remains, a 7lb penalty may not be enough to stop him from following up. Hidor De Bersy was successful at Wincanton for this rider a month ago, but this is more demanding and recent Aintree third Princesse Milania may pose a bigger threat to the selection.
Prediction : 1st Bollin Thou 2nd Princesse Milania 3rd Hidor De Bersy
