UK Horse Racing Tips: Nottingham

Galileo Charm has held her form throughout a busy all-weather campaign, and Light The Night Up also has fitness on her side thanks to her C&D fourth. They come up against some interesting handicap debutants, not least REEM RAK, whose best two juvenile efforts came at Newcastle, but there is nothing in her pedigree at least to suggest she won't handle the turf. Laughterintherain took a big step forward to get closest to an odds-on favourite at Lingfield, while Valkyrie Storm and Ten Sixty Six have plenty to recommend them.
Prediction : 1st Reem Rak 2nd Laughterintherain 3rd Valkyrie Storm

Quantum Swift and Dei Gratia Regina showed potential at Wolverhampton and Bath respectively, but they come up against some really interesting newcomers. Top of that list is BASSRAH, a 110,000gns daughter of Wootton Bassett who is from the family of Classic winners Legatissimo and Fame And Glory. Archie Watson has made a flying start with his juveniles so Phalanx Nation commands attention. Dubai Charm cost 90,000 pounds and is out of a half-sister to the high-class Brussels, while King's Prize and Iris Olivia will attract their fair share of support too.
Prediction : 1st Bassrah 2nd Phalanx Nation 3rd Dubai Charm

Phoenix Moon seems happiest on an artificial surface and stuck her neck out to make a successful start to the campaign at Lingfield. If she can translate that form to turf, she will be the one to beat but ORBITAL CHIME is worth another chance. James Owen's six-year-old wasn't able to show his true colours at Southwell, but went close at Thirsk before that and will relish the return to 6f. Winchurch is most effective at 5f and may be found wanting in the closing stages.
Prediction : 1st Orbital Chime 2nd Phoenix Moon 3rd Winchurch

Elashgar has been gelded since letting down odds-on backers at Wolverhampton so better is anticipated. Bold Return made a pleasing reappearance at Southwell, and Faithful Dream responded well to the application of cheekpieces to make the frame over 5f here. SEA HER EXCEL has first-time headgear fitted, with a hood hopefully getting her to settle better. She has also undergone wind surgery so the pieces are in place for an improved effort. Fellow handicap debutant Noble Gentleman warrants consideration too.
Prediction : 1st Sea Her Excel 2nd Faithful Dream 3rd Elashgar

Archie Watson has made a fine start to the season and LAYLA LIZ, who scored at Wolverhampton last month, makes plenty of appeal switching back to turf for the first time since making a winning debut at Leicester. It was a fine training effort from the Lambourn handler considering she was coming back from over a year off and a 3lb rise appears more than fair. Nad Alshiba Green was runner-up on that occasion and has a 2lb pull with the selection, while better is expected from Smart Vision after being badly hampered on his return at Beverley.
Prediction : 1st Layla Liz 2nd Nad Alshiba Green 3rd Smart Vision

SEE THE FIRE was campaigned solely in Group 1 company after her demolition job in the Middleton at York last May. The fact she escapes any penalties here makes her very tough to oppose and she is rated a stone higher than Lava Stream, who hasn't run since the 2024 Yorkshire Oaks. David O'Meara's mare did show some smart form that season, most notably when runner-up in the Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot, and will be the main threat if ready to roll. Despite being the lowest-rated member of the line-up, That's Amore's sole defeat came when fourth to Minnie Hauk at Chester and she arrives fresh from winning a novice event at Southwell.
Prediction : 1st See The Fire 2nd Lava Stream 3rd Thats Amore

Codiak failed in his bid for a hat-trick when only third at Wolverhampton earlier in the month, but that was still a fair effort and he should remain competitive. Course winner Just An Hour remains on a workable figure and is noted, but ROCK N ROLL PINKIE gets the vote. Ivan Furtado's charge had Imperial Sovereign behind in fourth when beaten two lengths into second at Southwell and could go one better.
Prediction : 1st Rock N Roll Pinkie 2nd Codiak 3rd Just An Hour

Shady Bay struck over track and trip last July before completing a double at Newbury. Her form tapered off afterwards but she has to be of interest on her return to the fray. GLINT OF LIGHT only found one too good when sporting a first-time hood at Doncaster and is just 3lb higher. This represents only her second appearance for the Edward Smyth-Osbourne stable and she looks the one to beat. Solanna completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Glint Of Light 2nd Shady Bay 3rd Solanna
