UK Horse Racing Tips: Huntingdon

A Great Excuse and TOUQUET are both seeking doubles, but preference is for the latter after his triumph over C&D last month. Nick Gifford's charge makes just his sixth start over fences and may have more in the locker. Lingfield scorer A Great Excuse now has a 5lb higher rating to contend with, but is likely to be on the premises. Plantaroma is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Touquet 2nd A Great Excuse 3rd Plantaroma

Bumper winner Double Measure failed to land a blow when only fourth in Grade 2 company at Haydock, but this is easier and he commands respect. However, PERTEMPS showed a big chunk of improvement to take the silver medal home at Uttoxeter and he can take another step forward to go one better. Any market confidence behind newcomer Sims' Law would be interesting.
Prediction : 1st Pertemps 2nd Double Measure 3rd Sims Law

Orange Diamond has gone from strength to strength since switching to the Tom Ellis yard, winning four of his six starts, and he has to be taken seriously. Call Me Arthur makes only his third chase outing and is noted, but the vote goes to ANNIE EXPRESS. A comfortable winner of a conditionals' handicap chase at Ludlow on her first appearance for Robbie Llewellyn, the eight-year-old looks well placed to go in again.
Prediction : 1st Annie Express 2nd Orange Diamond 3rd Call Me Arthur

Having posted creditable efforts in defeat on both outings over fences, this looks a suitable opportunity for BATWOMEN to get her head in front. The eight-year-old makes plenty of appeal dropping in class and she may take some stopping if handling the step up in distance. A repeat of Easy To Follow's second at Carlisle on her penultimate appearance would see her in the thick of the action, with Flowing Cadenza next best.
Prediction : 1st Batwomen 2nd Easy To Follow 3rd Flowing Cadenza

Lundi Noir was too bad to be true when tailed off at Chepstow and a 62-day break should have freshened him up. A repeat of his previous third-placed handicap bow at the same venue could see him go close, but ALBIE LITTLEWOOD is more compelling. Dan Skelton's inmate justified favouritism on his first start in a handicap here and he may make light work of a 7lb rise. Stablemate Service Minimum is a feasible each-way alternative dropping in class.
Prediction : 1st Albie Littlewood 2nd Lundi Noir 3rd Service Minimum

ONEWAYWEST still held every chance in his hat-trick bid when falling at the last at Kempton. Based on that performance, the seven-year-old still appears to be ahead of the handicapper and stepping up in trip may elicit further progression. Ace Of Spades won on his return at Aintree before posting fine efforts in defeat at Haydock and Cheltenham. He commands plenty of respect, while Benign Dictator appeals most of the remainder after his Warwick success.
Prediction : 1st Onewaywest 2nd Ace Of Spades 3rd Benign Dictator

FOR A MOMENT finished runner-up to Malina Road in a point-to-point and on her bumper debut at Ludlow, with the pair both trained by Fergal O'Brien. The form received a huge boost with her stable companion winning a Listed bumper at Market Rasen last week and this appears an excellent opportunity for her to get off the mark. Lady Boujee was second at Market Rasen and is capable of being in the mix along with Elated, who shaped better than the result suggests at Warwick.
Prediction : 1st For A Moment 2nd Lady Boujee 3rd Elated
