UK Horse Racing Tips: Cork

With a 50/1 winner last season anything seems possible, but the form book points to the chances of SOUTHERN BOULEVARD, a half-length third at the Curragh last month where she tried to make all before being caught close home. This looks an easier task for the No Nay Never filly who could prove hard to peg back. Walk On Harry kept on at the one pace when third over C&D in July and he can go well, while Better Yet is one to watch in the early markets.
Prediction : 1st Southern Boulevard 2nd Walk On Harry 3rd Better Yet

Kiss Don't Tell showed improvement with every start as a juvenile culminating with a second at Dundalk, but she has been absent for over eight months and may be best watched for now. CASHEL BLUE was left with a fraction too much to do when closing late into third at Navan and, off only 1lb more, looks set to take full advantage if she can be kept nearer to the pace. The Right One's last race can be ignored after she got upset in the stalls and she could hit the final placing here.
Prediction : 1st Cashel Blue 2nd Kiss Dont Tell 3rd The Right One

Interesting, the official ratings see Aidan O'Brien's Nevermindtherain run here with 3lb in hand of the field and 9lb clear of stable companion Madam Secretary, yet Ryan Moore has presumably chosen the latter of the pair. Both can go well, but a chance is taken on the promising Frankel filly MAIRE RUA for Ger Lyons. She won as she pleased on debut at Leopardstown despite showing signs of her inexperience, and with progress expected she could well go on from here to compete at an even higher level.
Prediction : 1st Maire Rua 2nd Madam Secretary 3rd Nevermindtherain

This represents a drop in class for CAROLINA JETSTREAM and she could be well placed to capitalise. A good second in the Lanwades at the Curragh in May, the daughter of Pinatubo has faced stiff tests in both starts since and, as the top-rated contender in this race, there are good reasons for giving her another chance. Fellow class-dropper Princess Child must be feared at this level, while Sindagan, Suzie Songs and L L Koulsty have all been in good form and deserve a crack at gaining some black type.
Prediction : 1st Carolina Jetstream 2nd Princess Child 3rd Sindagan

BOSPHORUS ROSE backed up a creditable third in the Munster Oaks over C&D with a cosy win in Lenebane Stakes at Roscommon at the end of June. Assuming she returns from a short break in the same form, the daughter of Golden Horn could be hard to beat. Amelia Earhart looks the pick of a strong hand to be played by Aidan O'Brien, although Nyra got first run when she was a place ahead of the selection in the Munster Oaks and she may be a bigger danger back at this trip.
Prediction : 1st Bosphorus Rose 2nd Nyra 3rd Amelia Earhart

GARDEN PARTY showed stacks of ability to fill the runner-up berth on both starts as a juvenile and the daughter of Wootton Bassett is hard to ignore with Ryan Moore in the saddle for her seasonal debut. The Ballydoyle filly holds an entry in a Group 3 at the Curragh at the end of this month and a bold showing here could set her up nicely. Zadawa, Serendipia and Saxony Charms are the pick of the rest with experience, in that order of preference.
Prediction : 1st Garden Party 2nd Zadawa 3rd Serendipia

LAUNCH TIME resumed winning ways with a narrow victory over 7f at Leopardstown recently. This return to a mile will suit the son of Time Test and he could defy a 4lb rise with Colin Keane keeping the winning partnership intact. Leannespour has more scope than most of her rivals and could land a blow if building on last month's handicap debut when fourth at Gowran, while Dawn Flame placed at the same Gowran fixture and is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Launch Time 2nd Leannespour 3rd Dawn Flame
