UK Horse Racing Tips: Doncaster

Having finished a close-up third in the Champagne Trial over C&D, NIGHT STAR's experience could prove decisive. Richard Hannon's colt still displayed signs of greenness on that second career start and more improvement may be on the cards. Jassas, a brother to debut winner Blue Nazare, merits respect on his opening bid for top connections and market support would be interesting. Fellow newcomers Narrjoo and Mister Whippy are others of interest.
Prediction : 1st Night Star 2nd Jassas 3rd Narrjoo

Interstate upped his game when filling the runner-up spot at Southwell last November and he's likely to be involved if reproducing a similar performance on his return. However, impressive Ffos Las winner ROUND THE TABLE boasts a recent run and he looks capable of shouldering a penalty. Although Dancingondiamonds hasn't cut any ice in two outings over timber, the pick of his previous form in this discipline gives him a squeak.
Prediction : 1st Round The Table 2nd Interstate 3rd Dancingondiamonds

Ten Clarets supplemented a promising debut fourth at York with a close-up second at Ayr earlier this month and another good account is forecast. That said, JUMEIRAH STORM's recent course victory received a boost on Monday when Keep Kicking (fourth) On made a winning nursery bow off a rating of 78, which suggests an opening mark of 81 is workable for William Knight's colt. Rhodes Runner is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Jumeirah Storm 2nd Ten Clarets 3rd Rhodes Runner

SARGENT DENNIS hit the crossbar twice before getting off the mark over 6f at Windsor in May and that performance suggests that a mark of 74 should be workable on his handicap debut. The recent Ripon winner Lamlash Bay is an obvious threat to the selection, despite a 5lb rise. Alfa Duplicate, Blue Orbit and Seeing Stars are others to note in an open event.
Prediction : 1st Sargent Dennis 2nd Lamlash Bay 3rd Alfa Duplicate

FARANDAWAY has won two of his last three starts, finishing second on the other occasion, and a 3lb rise for the latest of those victories may not be enough to stop him from following up. Commander Of Life was runner-up at Newbury most recently and is likely to be in the mix once again, while Straight A and Evocative Spark are next best.
Prediction : 1st Farandaway 2nd Commander Of Life 3rd Straight A

Leicester winner PALMARIAN went close to doubling up over C&D latest but can atone for that narrow defeat given that he's 2lb well-in compared to future events. Albeyours will encounter quicker ground conditions than she did when successful at Carlisle but remains of interest now tried over a mile. Don't rule out the well-treated Theme Park, who sports a tongue-tie for the first time.
Prediction : 1st Palmarian 2nd Albeyours 3rd Theme Park

ALTERITY made all of the running to break her maiden tag at Ripon and looks almost certain to progress further now pitched into handicaps. The daughter of Bobby's Kitten might be able to set her own fractions once again and, if doing so, she could be tough to reel in. Shadow Brigade is next best ahead of the David Menuisier-trained Brighlee.
Prediction : 1st Alterity 2nd Shadow Brigade 3rd Brighlee
