UK Horse Racing Tips: Huntingdon

CARLTON has run well in defeat off this mark the last twice over hurdles and he was last seen winning on the all-weather at Chelmsford last month. That suggests that he could be successful in a race of this nature now returned to jumping. Pottersmattyeeehaa was second at Warwick last time and looks to be the main threat, ahead of Ocean Walz.
Prediction : 1st Carlton 2nd Pottersmattyeeehaa 3rd Ocean Walz

CLOUDY WEDNESDAY found one too good when trying to follow up on his Market Rasen win over an extended 2m7f at this venue earlier in the month. The drop in trip should only help this veteran and he makes plenty of appeal as a result. Big Boy Barney is a player based on his third at Ludlow two starts ago, while Synchronist is next best.
Prediction : 1st Cloudy Wednesday 2nd Big Boy Barney 3rd Synchronist

BLUES SINGER was out of his depth in a Grade 2 at Kempton a couple of weeks ago but is arguably the one to beat based on his previous third to two decent prospects at Newbury in December. Kuredu King was successful when last seen on the Flat in September and has to be respected on his hurdling bow, while any market support for Cluain Chormaic on his debut for Karen Jewell would have to be noted.
Prediction : 1st Blues Singer 2nd Kuredu King 3rd Cluain Chormaic

DOTTIES STAR appeals after a near miss when second over C&D 10 days ago. Running off the same mark, it would be no surprise to see the seven-year-old ridden handier with his bid to go one better this time. Chevington and Bluenose Belle have also shown enough to make the shortlist in this company, although Risk It All found only an odds-on favourite too good at Fakenham most recently and he could be a bigger danger with a step forward on that performance.
Prediction : 1st Dotties Star 2nd Risk It All 3rd Chevington

EVER READY posted her best effort yet over hurdles when she filled the runner-up berth at Southwell last month. That was her first try over this sort of distance and there could be more to come now she has proven that a stiffer test of stamina suits. Callin Baton Rouge has winning form over 2m4f and is another key player back over this trip. Innisfree Pearl is unexposed in this discipline and is another to keep a close eye on in the betting for her handicap debut over timber.
Prediction : 1st Ever Ready 2nd Callin Baton Rouge 3rd Innisfree Pearl

Soft ground blighted JUKEBOX D'EDDY during his hat-trick bid at Doncaster and he can bounce back with the forecast conditions more up his street. Having improved with a visor applied of late, Tom Gretton's seven-year-old is well worth another chance. Mixedwave is back on a winning mark and must be taken seriously following a respectable second at Southwell. As Constant Friday is 2lb wrong and with both Dublin To Milan and Getaway Glory failing to complete last time, Hall Lane is the pick of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Jukebox Deddy 2nd Mixedwave 3rd Hall Lane

EUSTACE GRENIER was third in a much deeper-looking bumper at Windsor and, with the form being franked by the runner-up winning a Listed race since, the son of Castle Du Berlais is suggested as the first one to consider. Solo Eclipse was an encouraging second over C&D on his debut last month and is another likely to prosper with that experience to draw upon. However, Samwell ticks plenty of the right boxes on paper and this 60,000 euros-purchase might prove to be a bigger danger.
Prediction : 1st Eustace Grenier 2nd Samwell 3rd Solo Eclipse
