UK Horse Racing Tips: Leicester

Fay Ce Que Voudras banished a Ffos Las tumble to the memory when breaking her chasing duck over an extended 2m6f here. A 4lb rise isn't unduly harsh and the drop in trip isn't a problem, but she is still passed over in favour of BOBBI'S BEAUTY. The Martin Keighley-trained eight-year-old came out on top in this race a couple of years ago and her recent near-miss at Lingfield was given a boost when her conqueror went close to following up. Sawpit Samantha is expected to struggle.
Prediction : 1st Bobbis Beauty 2nd Fay Ce Que Voudras 3rd Sawpit Samantha

Not much in the way of recent winning form to go on, although a few bring solid placed form to the table. Heading that list is DELGANY DEADLINE, who stepped forward from his chasing debut to go under by just a length at Sedgefield and he can continue his forward momentum. Ronnies Reflection won this last year and returns on the same mark following a back-to-form Lingfield second. Fellow C&D scorer Nine Nine Nine might be helped by a wind procedure, and Just In A Bit should be thereabouts too.
Prediction : 1st Delgany Deadline 2nd Ronnies Reflection 3rd Nine Nine Nine

PALAWAN DU MAZET showed his appreciation for the testing conditions when getting off the mark at Taunton, making amends for a disqualification after passing the post in front in the same race 12 months prior. He had a subsequent winner back in third and can kick on now. Ahanaglogh was fancied to leave all previous form well behind on his handicap/chase bow and did just that, but was still put in his place by an emphatic winner. There was encouragement to take from the display, though, and he must be feared. Nedzor is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Palawan Du Mazet 2nd Ahanaglogh 3rd Nedzor

DENEMETHY performed as well as could be expected when fourth in a class 2 at Sandown and these calmer waters may see him back on the scoresheet. A 1lb ease in the ratings can only benefit the eight-year-old and he should take all the beating. Rip Wheeler looked progressive until two disappointing defeats and a bigger threat may emerge from Xcitations, who is entitled to improve for his Uttoxeter reappearance.
Prediction : 1st Denemethy 2nd Xcitations 3rd Rip Wheeler

St Cuthbert's Cave would hold a leading chance judged on the pick of his form, but he pulled up at Ludlow and will need to put that behind him. With that in mind, PAUL MARVEL rates as the one to beat after scoring here in emphatic fashion and another bold bid looks likely. Prohus Yank was running with credit when unseating his rider at the final fence at Ludlow and may fare best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Paul Marvel 2nd St Cuthberts Cave 3rd Prohus Yank

Although he came to grief when sent off an even-money favourite at Warwick, JET PLANE is a clear pick on the ratings. Dan Skelton's charge had previously finished a good second off a mark of 137 at Sandown, suggesting that he will be difficult to beat in this company. Pyleigh Court is rated 14lb inferior to the selection but is feared most in his current heart, ahead of Bowtogreatness.
Prediction : 1st Jet Plane 2nd Pyleigh Court 3rd Bowtogreatness
