UK Horse Racing Tips: Ffos Las

Despite being well held, BUDDY HOLLY displayed plenty of promise when finishing third on his hurdling/stable debut at Newbury in November. This looks to be a much easier test for the five-year-old and he could be hard to beat as a result. Jaccours is likely to be the main danger if back to his best, while Ercall Fox and Tommy Pickles complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Buddy Holly 2nd Jaccours 3rd Ercall Fox

TURENNE looked set to be successful before falling at the last on his most recent outing at Fontwell in December. With a clear round this time, it would be no surprise to see David Pipe's gelding make amends here. Wispit Twob has to be noted on his stable debut having chased home a high-class prospect at Cork last time, while Blowers and Titanium Ring complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Turenne 2nd Wispit Twob 3rd Blowers

The unexposed GIRLS BEST FRIEND was second when trying to follow up on his Uttoxeter win in November at Market Rasen the following month. Further improvement looks likely and he can defy a 6lb higher mark here. Illogical Logic has been knocking on the door of late and is likely to be in the mix once again. First-time cheekpieces for Dangerous Touch makes him of interest as well.
Prediction : 1st Girls Best Friend 2nd Illogical Logic 3rd Dangerous Touch

GLENGOLLY recorded an impressive win at Hereford before Christmas and lost little in defeat when splitting a pair of subsequent winners at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve. The wind operation he underwent in September seems to have done the trick and the seven-year-old is preferred to Pipas Lescribaa, who ran a blinder to finish second here latest. Stellar Stream reverts to hurdles off an appealing mark and is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Glengolly 2nd Pipas Lescribaa 3rd Stellar Stream

Seasmoke arrives in fine fettle and is likely to prove popular given her scope for further improvement. However, the daughter of Flemensfirth has something to prove on testing ground and it might prove wiser to side with LADY HARRIETT. Although only a modest hurdler, her dam is related to a couple of useful chasers. That bodes well and shouldering a light weight is no bad thing either. Stamina Chope completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Lady Harriett 2nd Seasmoke 3rd Stamina Chope

REINADO made amends for falling here in October when scoring with consummate ease in a conditional jockeys' event at Uttoxeter before following up less than a week later at Chepstow. The six-year-old has to contend with a 14lb higher mark, but the manner of those victories suggest a hike of that nature is fully justified and further progression appears likely. El Gavilan relished heavy ground when winning over C&D earlier in the month and is noted along with There Runs Mary.
Prediction : 1st Reinado 2nd El Gavilan 3rd There Runs Mary

GWENNIE MAY JEM bounced back to form when appreciating the return to front-running tactics at Lingfield earlier in the month and Olly Murphy's gelding has every chance of backing up that performance under a 7lb penalty. Bobbi's Beauty is likely to benefit from a drop back in trip after a below-par display at Warwick, but the main danger could prove to be El Rojo Grande following his Market Rasen success a fortnight ago.
Prediction : 1st Gwennie May Jem 2nd El Rojo Grande 3rd Bobbis Beauty
