UK Horse Racing Tips: Huntingdon

ANOTHER DAY OUT hit the deck early on over fences last time, but she struck over C&D prior to that and can show her appreciation for the return to the smaller obstacles. Fellow track-and-trip winner The Wise Traveller has struggled since a surprise Plumpton triumph back in the autumn so the dangers are probably elsewhere, with Geordie Night preferred to Alan Bresil. Juggernaut comes right into the equation if turned out again following Sunday's Fontwell outing.
Prediction : 1st Another Day Out 2nd Geordie Night 3rd Alan Bresil

CLOUDY WEDNESDAY has largely held his form well in defeat since returning to action in March and last week's second behind a bang in-form opponent here showed he is back to a mark off which he can strike. Caroline Fryer's 10-year-old made a valiant bid from the front and will appreciate stepping back up in distance. Blinkers replace cheekpieces on Slaney Opera so there are reasons to anticipate improvement. Crac De Megaudais is the pick of the other two.
Prediction : 1st Cloudy Wednesday 2nd Slaney Opera 3rd Crac De Megaudais

A spell in Ireland didn't work out for Eternal Angel, but his UK form was promising and he could easily recapture his sparkle now starting off for Tom Lacey. A chance is still taken on SWORD OF WESSEX, who didn't live up to early expectations on the level but did land the odds at Yarmouth only last month and is an interesting recruit to hurdles. Palma Springs has shown glimpses of ability and now has a tongue-tie fitted.
Prediction : 1st Sword Of Wessex 2nd Eternal Angel 3rd Palma Springs

All of these have questions to answer, but marginal preference is for KILL THE GROOVE. Well held when third at Hereford last time, that performance still suggests that she can play a leading role in a race of this nature. Similar comments apply to recent course second Lady Jago, while Ballyhiho could also go well if bouncing back to form.
Prediction : 1st Kill The Groove 2nd Lady Jago 3rd Ballyhiho

It is very hard to oppose KNIGHTON, who put in a career best over obstacles when filling second place on his handicap debut at Ludlow. Off a 2lb lower mark, the son of Farhh could go one better on this occasion. The rest do not inspire much confidence at all, but Stay In The Game and Saachi are the pick of them.
Prediction : 1st Knighton 2nd Stay In The Game 3rd Saachi

BELOW THE BELT showed much more when a close second at Market Rasen and, with cheekpieces now applied, Max Comley's gelding tops the shortlist on the back of that performance, despite a 3lb rise. Tyson failed to fire at Fakenham but it is too soon to be writing him off, while The Truant is capable of contending if close to his best.
Prediction : 1st Below The Belt 2nd Tyson 3rd The Truant
