UK Horse Racing Tips: Bellewstown

MOSEL attracted some support on her Curragh debut when last of seven, but there were positives to take from that performance, though, as she was green under pressure, and the form has been franked by winner Star Performer's comfortable Listed success. The Waldgeist filly drops back in trip and can take a massive step forward for Joseph O'Brien and Dylan Browne McMonagle, who remain in excellent form. Karrygrant is consistent but difficult to win with, although he does set the standard here with a rating of 79. His finishing effort is a concern, but the shorter trip and the tight nature of this track may help him get home. Star Of Beauty has pieces of form that could see her finish in the frame.
Prediction : 1st Mosel 2nd Karrygrant 3rd Star Of Beauty

A tentative vote goes to TULLYESKER, who has little form to write home about, but the combination of first-time cheekpieces and the plum draw of one might see a change in fortune. Rory Cleary could change tactics which may benefit him hugely. Draiocht is becoming a consistent competitor in this grade and stayed on well last time out when stepping back in trip. Again, with a good draw and Wayne Lordan booked, he has a definite chance. Suerte gave an improved showing last time out and can complete the frame off an unchanged mark.
Prediction : 1st Tullyesker 2nd Draiocht 3rd Suerte

PERFECT JUDGEMENT is taken to improve on his Gowran second. He travelled strongly that day and hit the front inside the final furlong, but was outstayed close home, so the drop in trip should suit. Giverhertilxmas is a maiden after 11 starts and she just failed to score last time, receiving a harsh 3lb for the performance. With Colin Keane back aboard and first-time cheekpieces applied, the Inns Of Court filly has solid claims. Land Of The Giants showed more when fourth at Gowran last time and he completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Perfect Judgement 2nd Givehertilxmas 3rd Land Of The Giants

ZARAAHMANDO has been knocking on the door with a string of consistent efforts and this may be the time to catch the four-year-old. Elusive Path demands respect on handicap debut after three placed maiden runs. Although he seemed stretched by a mile last time out, connections have persevered and he looks fairly treated. Goal Exceeded may be in the handicapper's grip, but is in great form and cannot be discounted.
Prediction : 1st Zaraahmando 2nd Elusive Path 3rd Goal Exceeded

The consistent BIT OF A BUZZ should have enough to take this contest for the in-form Gavin Cromwell team. The son of Showcasing has never placed out of the top four and a repeat of his last run will see him go close. Annie Batt made a pleasant introduction to her racing career over C&D but disappointed at Navan on her latest start. She can be competitive returning to 5f. Tango Club was well supported late on her last start and shaped well but paid the price for being too keen throughout.
Prediction : 1st Bit Of A Buzz 2nd Annie Batt 3rd Tango Club

The Johnny Murtagh-trained NAMIID has been consistent this season and he is given the nod to land this competitive handicap. His recent third at the Curragh was a solid effort, having travelled well throughout, and the son of Acclamation could be hard to beat with a further step forward. The reliable Prairie Girl also posted a respectable display at the Curragh on her latest start and should get competitive, while Cuban Grey is a pace angle and could be hard to peg back if getting out on his own on the front end.
Prediction : 1st Namiid 2nd Prairie Girl 3rd Cuban Grey

ZADAWA was a close second over an extended 1m2f at Cork on her latest start and the daughter of Camelot could be hard to beat over this longer trip. Mawhibah was second at Tramore most recently, despite not appearing to handle the undulating course. She is still capable of progressing, while Shemiyka backed up a surprising third in a maiden at the Galway Festival with a creditable fourth at Sligo.
Prediction : 1st Zadawa 2nd Mawhibah 3rd Shemiyka

BOXING GREAT got up on the line to win at Leopardstown and gets the vote, having only been raised 1lb for that game success. Friary Road has been a model of consistency and will be a danger if he continues to flourish, while the Tony Martin-trained Day Trader was second at the Galway Festival and is capable of being in the mix.
Prediction : 1st Boxing Great 2nd Friary Road 3rd Day Trader
