UK Horse Racing Tips: Fontwell

CATCH ON ME filled second place in a similar event over an extended 2m4f at Plumpton when last seen in January and the six-year-old appears to be the one to beat based on that evidence. Karate Kid showed plenty of ability in bumpers and should not be underestimated on his hurdling bow, while any market support for point-to-point winner Handmedownastar would have to be noted.
Prediction : 1st Catch On Me 2nd Karate Kid 3rd Handmedownastar

With all of these having questions to answer, a chance can be taken on OUR PAPA SMURF. The five-year-old failed to fire at Plumpton last time, but is a leading contender based on his previous victory at the same venue in January. Dragons And Demons may improve now switched to handicap company, while A Mere Bagatelle and Calshot Spit are others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Our Papa Smurf 2nd Dragons And Demons 3rd A Mere Bagatelle

RIP WHEELER has won three of his last five starts and a 3lb rise for the latest of those victories at Leicester last month may not be enough to stop him from following up. Good Friday Fairy did not appear to stay an extended 2m7f at Newbury, but is a danger back at this trip. Hold Up La Colmine edges out Mon Champion to be the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Rip Wheeler 2nd Good Friday Fairy 3rd Hold Up La Colmine

The combination of a 7lb penalty and quicker ground conditions may have contributed to JUNIOR DES MOTTES' failed hat-trick bid at Catterick and this looks a suitable opportunity for the seven-year-old to get back on the scoresheet. Betgoodwin displayed some ability when filling the runner-up spot over C&D, although he was beaten 31 lengths. Chris Gordon's charge is still feared most, with Amalfi Skyline the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Junior Des Mottes 2nd Betgoodwin 3rd Amalfi Skyline

Jolie Baie wasn't disgraced on her latest fifth at Huntingdon and a subsequent wind procedure combined with a 2lb drop in the ratings could see her fight out the finish. However, INNISFREE LASS' triumph at Southwell signalled a return to form and she appeals more with Murray Dodd's claim negating a 5lb rise. Sweet Magic can also make her presence felt.
Prediction : 1st Innisfree Lass 2nd Jolie Baie 3rd Sweet Magic

Having won two of his three starts since undergoing wind surgery, FALCO DES PINS seems progressive and could be well placed to deal with a 6lb rise imposed after a cosy triumph at Leicester. He's got experience of this trip and, with Ned Fox claiming 3lb, everything is in place for another bold showing. Sanitiser went up 4lb for his Kempton success and needs a personal best to follow up so Raffles Hermes is suggested as a bigger danger after going close at Wincanton.
Prediction : 1st Falco Des Pins 2nd Raffles Hermes 3rd Sanitiser

NIMBA, who won the second of two starts between the flags, looked a decent prospect when he readily justified favouritism in a bumper at Catterick on his debut for Mickey Bowen and a 7lb penalty looks manageable. Fellow point-to-point winner Rine Yeats is the most intriguing of the newcomers to this discipline, although The Perfect Poet is bred along the right lines and is another to monitor closely in the betting.
Prediction : 1st Nimba 2nd Rine Yeats 3rd The Perfect Poet
