UK Horse Racing Tips: Ayr

Although foiled in his follow-up bid, Lingfield scorer GATINEAU PARK lost little in defeat when conceding 7lb to a subsequent winner at Wincanton. The six-year-old should take all the beating if performing to a similar level and gets the vote over Tashkhan. Brian Ellison's inmate arrives on the back of a respectable third in a Grade 2 at Haydock and is likely to be involved. Out Of The Woods is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Gatineau Park 2nd Tashkhan 3rd Out Of The Woods

Successful in three of his five outings over fences, One Mill Harbour shaped better than the bare form over an extended 2m4f here last time out. The drop in distance looks ideal and he isn't taken lightly, but NETYWELL is a shade more compelling. The top-weight returned to form with a fair fourth over C&D and a 2lb drop in the ratings may prove fruitful. Dance Thief could fare best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Netywell 2nd One Mill Harbour 3rd Dance Thief

KEEP ON COBBLING looked to find a drop in trip against her when finishing sixth at Hereford. Henry Daly's mare has been given plenty of time to get over that defeat and she's fancied to resume her progress given this greater emphasis on stamina. Tread Softly Now caught the eye when reaching the frame at Sedgefield and rates the biggest danger, ahead of Fox's Fancy.
Prediction : 1st Keep On Cobbling 2nd Tread Softly Now 3rd Foxs Fancy

Gamigin arrives on the back of much improved effort at Down Royal and could make his presence felt now back to something like his best, but TRIPLE CROWN TED makes most appeal. The progressive six-year-old landed a handicap in testing ground at Kelso in resolute fashion and his yard has won two of the three previous renewals. His new stable companion Litleangel Duseuil is a hurdles winner in France and could also shape well.
Prediction : 1st Triple Crown Ted 2nd Gamigin 3rd Litleangel Duseuil

CLASSIC MAESTRO failed to complete in the Grade 1 Ascot Chase last month, but this is more his level. Jennie Candlish's charge found only subsequent Grade 2 winner Jax Junior too good in a competitive handicap at Sandown in January and a repeat effort here should see him bang there at the finish. Ned Tanner won this last year off a 2lb higher mark and could bounce back, while Primoz is preferred of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Classic Maestro 2nd Ned Tanner 3rd Primoz

Briery Butterfly has found one too good the last twice, most recently at Huntingdon, and she may fill that position again, this time behind KALO ATHENA. Jimmy Moffatt's mare finished second in heavy conditions at Newcastle in January and now sports a tongue-tie/cheekpieces combination for the first time, with Brian Hughes booked. Coylton King still had every chance when unseating at the last over C&D and isn't ruled out either.
Prediction : 1st Kalo Athena 2nd Briery Butterfly 3rd Coylton King

Popton Point is unbeaten in two starts and is an exciting prospect, but she might find it tough to give weight away to JET OF STARS. The five-year-old won his sole point-to-point outing and changed hands for 230,000 pounds in March last year. The booking of Brian Hughes is noteworthy and he looks the one to side with. Dundee Law is from the family of Punjabi and must not be dismissed lightly.
Prediction : 1st Jet Of Stars 2nd Popton Point 3rd Dundee Law
