UK Horse Racing Tips: Newmarket

Gilding The Lily hasn't looked back since her debut second at Wolverhampton, winning two on the bounce, and the daughter of Blue Point is well worth her place at this level. However, ESTISSA was closing all the way to the line when finishing a creditable fourth in this class at Longchamp and this looks a good opportunity for James Fanshawe's filly. Arisaig is a player based on her third at Pontefract two starts ago.
Prediction : 1st Estissa 2nd Gilding The Lily 3rd Arisaig

INIS MOR failed to land a blow when well beaten in the Yorkshire Oaks last month, but she took the silver medal home in the Irish Oaks at the Curragh previously and that is the standout piece of form on offer. The booking of Ryan Moore further aids her cause and she looks the one to beat. Without Prejudice is unbeaten in two appearances, most recently scoring under a penalty at Windsor, and she could improve for this step up in trip. Park Hill fourth Prizeland completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Inis Mor 2nd Without Prejudice 3rd Prizeland

Light Of Dawn relished the step up to this distance when victorious in the Prestige at Goodwood and commands respect. Sugar Yes Please won the Sweet Solera to make it two wins from three starts and is another to take seriously, but SPIRITED GESTURE is an exciting prospect. The Kingman filly struck by three lengths to remain unbeaten at Newcastle and, as a sister to Group 2 winner Calyx, she could have any amount of improvement to come.
Prediction : 1st Spirited Gesture 2nd Light Of Dawn 3rd Sugar Yes Please

Having found himself too far back when finishing a never-nearer second in a Group 3 at Goodwood in July, this could prove a suitable opportunity for TALK OF NEW YORK to get back on the scoresheet. Charlie Appleby's colt had previously finished a fine third in the St James's Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot and a similar performance should suffice. Persica was all out to repel reopposing runner-up The Lost King in the Superior Mile at Haydock and they may serve the most resistance to the selection.
Prediction : 1st Talk Of New York 2nd Persica 3rd The Lost King

Fortitudine has made light work of the opposition on both outings to date and he looks to hold a bright future. The son of Dubawi merits the utmost of respect, but he may need to find a little extra to deny KOKBASTAU in his quest for a four-timer. Roger Varian's colt was value for further than his narrow victory at Sandown 27 days ago and may prove a bit more streetwise given his experience. The unbeaten Castlemont cannot be dismissed, while Archers Bay is no back number either.
Prediction : 1st Kokbastau 2nd Fortitudine 3rd Castlemont

Roger Varian has trained two of the last five winners and is represented by newcomer State Emperor, though it is noted that both successes arrived here with a run under their belt. Howzatt ran well for a 66/1 chance when fourth at Lingfield and he has the benefit of Billy Loughnane in the saddle, but a chance is taken on QUORUM. The son of Kingman changed hands for 360,000gns as a yearling and represents the in-form William Haggas yard.
Prediction : 1st Quorum 2nd State Emperor 3rd Howzatt

Go Rimbaud won over this sort of distance at Wolverhampton in July and arrives in good form after finishing second on his last two appearances. He can go well, but Ralph Beckett won this last year and has solid chances again with JOULANY. The son of Sea The Stars finished a close third behind subsequent Group 1 winner Maltese Cross over 1m2f at Newbury in April and, if returning to that form, he will prove hard to beat. Waterford Castle and Livemore are others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Joulany 2nd Go Rimbaud 3rd Waterford Castle
