UK Horse Racing Tips: Yarmouth

Archer's Grace was given the summer off following a pleasing handicap debut at Salisbury and has plenty of scope for improvement. Magic Box also arrives fresh, but TOASTMASTER has maintained a fine level of consistency since joining Michael Herrington and was a solid third at York last time. The winner went on to run well in the Great St Wilfrid, while the runner-up went one better subsequently, so the form is strong. Galba and Berlinetta are a couple more to consider.
Prediction : 1st Toastmaster 2nd Archers Grace 3rd Galba

WATCH PARTY cost 300,000gns as a yearling and was sent off favourite for her debut at Newmarket. She could only manage third but the winner is exciting, while the second went close again next time, and Roger Varian's Fillies' Mile entrant can make it second-time lucky. The rest with experience don't make all that much appeal, but there are a handful of interesting newcomers in opposition. Speaking Tree was bought for 220,000 euros and is bred to be quicker than Sea The Stars filly Sea La Roma. You're Sensational has to enter the equation as well.
Prediction : 1st Watch Party 2nd Speaking Tree 3rd Sea La Roma

FLICK OF AN EYE was a 150,000-pounds breeze-up buy and knew his job when third on debut at Newbury. He had a subsequent winner well behind him and natural improvement might well suffice. I Am Royal's Kempton second is stronger form than Channel Islands' runner-up finish at Ffos Las, but If You Like could be the primary threat. William Haggas landed this prize 12 months ago with the top-class Division and this year's representative cost 140,000 euros as a yearling.
Prediction : 1st Flick Of An Eye 2nd If You Like 3rd I Am Royal

In an open nursery, marginal preference is for REGAL TIGER. After a fairly encouraging introduction at Haydock, Hugo Palmer's colt was no match for an easy Pontefract winner before only going down by half a length at Windsor. The son of Kingman should come into his own over 7f, if not a bit further, and he can make it fourth-time lucky. Classic-winning rider Saffie Osborne gets aboard Mandolin Rain, who should appreciate easing ground conditions. Wolverhampton winner Javelot is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Regal Tiger 2nd Mandolin Rain 3rd Javelot

Echalar regained the winning thread at Doncaster and is respected with Billy Loughnane back in the plate, while Hamlet's Night was last seen finishing down the field in the Swinton Hurdle but merits close inspection. However, it might be worth taking a chance on MYTHICAL GUEST. He was 7lb out of the handicap in a warm Ascot contest, so his effort is best forgiven, but his earlier Newmarket performance was full of promise and returning to 10 furlongs should bring out the best in him.
Prediction : 1st Mythical Guest 2nd Echalar 3rd Hamlets Night

Although well beaten in the Palace Of Holyroodhouse, CHERRY BAKER was far from disgraced. James Owen's filly had been steadily progressing at a lower level previously and she could resume that improvement on the back of a few months on the sidelines. Gold Digger has contested some warm events, including the aforementioned Royal Ascot sprint, since a comeback success at Windsor. Eased 3lb after a midfield finish at Glorious Goodwood, she has the ability to go close and so does the in-form Space Bear.
Prediction : 1st Cherry Baker 2nd Gold Digger 3rd Space Bear

Cases can be made for each of these, but DIOMED DUKE edges the vote. The four-year-old maintained a blistering gallop to score at Lingfield and is beginning to form a strong partnership with Olivia Haines. Fiorella Princess was only collared in the dying strides on her stable bow at the same venue and she's feared most, ahead of Twilight Fun.
Prediction : 1st Diomed Duke 2nd Fiorella Princess 3rd Twilight Fun
