UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

FORT AUGUSTUS has won two of his last three starts and a 4lb rise for the latest of those victories at Southwell may not be enough to stop him here. That said, Split Elevens is another recent winner with strong claims and could give the selection plenty to think about, while similar comments apply to last month's Kempton winner Yehudi.
Prediction : 1st Fort Augustus 2nd Split Elevens 3rd Yehudi

A tentative vote goes to HONOUR YOUR DREAMS, who has been running well enough in defeat of late to suggest that he can go well in a race of this nature off a career-low mark. Shalaa Asker struggled in a better race last time but should not be underestimated at this level, while Peregrine Falcon and Desdemona are others to note.
Prediction : 1st Honour Your Dreams 2nd Shalaa Asker 3rd Peregrine Falcon

SUNSHINE STAR failed to meet market expectations when sixth on her return at Sandown in April, but that race was much stronger than this and it is far too soon to be writing her off. Lightning Glory is the pick of the remainder with experience but Kashooda, who is a half-sister to a Listed winner, may prove to be the main threat to the selection on her debut.
Prediction : 1st Sunshine Star 2nd Kashooda 3rd Lightning Glory

Raspoutine might take a step forward now sporting first-time blinkers and he's respected, while Kaori is interesting on her return to the fray and Extraterrestrial could bounce back from a lacklustre Newbury effort. LEXINGTON EXPRESS is the in-form horse in the race, though, and is difficult to get away from having made it three wins from her last four starts courtesy of a smooth Wolverhampton performance last month.
Prediction : 1st Lexington Express 2nd Raspoutine 3rd Kaori

SAHANA won from off the pace here last September and shaped as though another win could be just around the corner when posting a close second at Kempton on her return. The top-weight makes most appeal and can get the better of the penalised Leicester scorer Polka Blue. Hamaleel goes in first-time blinkers and is another expected to go well in this.
Prediction : 1st Sahana 2nd Polka Blue 3rd Hamaleel

Look no further than FIRE THUNDER. She has shaped with more than enough promise in two starts at Wolverhampton and Windsor, finishing a close second on both occasions, to suggest a maiden of this nature is well within reach. She's unlikely to be much of a price, but should take all of the beating. The dangers are Tricky Jenny and It'sbeenemotional.
Prediction : 1st Fire Thunder 2nd Tricky Jenny 3rd Itsbeenemotional

Having posted a most encouraging second on her debut over 5f at Bath, this could prove a suitable opportunity for RON'S ANGEL to shed her maiden tag. This extra furlong should suit the daughter of Harry Angel and she's likely to prove a warm order. Forest Berry left her opening seventh at Kempton behind with a good runner-up performance at Chepstow recently and she may serve the most resistance to the selection, ahead of Last Dandelion.
Prediction : 1st Rons Angel 2nd Forest Berry 3rd Last Dandelion

Sail On Sailor displayed a willing attitude when opening his account by the narrowest of margins at Bath last month and a 3lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold showing. However, a 2lb nudge up in the ratings for HOVE RANGER's breakthrough triumph at Kempton in February looks a touch more lenient and he shades the vote. The lightly-raced Case Study is also worth a second in first-time cheekpieces.
Prediction : 1st Hove Ranger 2nd Sail On Sailor 3rd Case Study
