UK Horse Racing Tips: Sedgefield

MILITARY CROSS was no slouch on the level and made a pleasing start to life over hurdles when second at Cartmel back in May. Given time to get over those exertions and with the experience under his belt, Sam England's gelding is expected to take the necessary step forward. John Galt shares a similar profile and must be respected, while returning bumper winner Arms Park is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Military Cross 2nd John Galt 3rd Arms Park

HENRY BOX BROWN wasn't at his best over hurdles latest, but he was a decisive winner in this discipline at Worcester the time before. Most of these have something to prove, with the exception of Flashy Boy, so if happier back over fences, he looks certain to go close. The lightly-raced Swingforthefence has been given some respite by the handicapper and may chase the aforementioned pair home.
Prediction : 1st Henry Box Brown 2nd Flashy Boy 3rd Swingforthefence

JET OF DREAMS had Lady Kara over two lengths in arrears when on target over C&D recently and with Richard Upton negating the penalty with his 10lb claim, it appears likely that Warren Greatrex's charge will uphold that form en route to further success. Kientzheim has yet to show her best over the larger obstacles so Neigh Botha looks best placed to take home the bronze medal.
Prediction : 1st Jet Of Dreams 2nd Lady Kara 3rd Neigh Botha

Having exacted his revenge on William Yeats over slightly shorter here last month, AIMERIC is fancied to confirm his superiority. The seven-year-old has proved a smart Flat horse over the years and there still looks to be mileage in his current mark over timber. William Yeats enjoys a 2lb swing with the selection for a length and is the obvious danger. Cosmic Soul is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Aimeric 2nd William Yeats 3rd Cosmic Soul

LITTLETOWN LAD continued on his upward trajectory when digging deep to complete a double over C&D and this looks a suitable opportunity to score again. Although the six-year-old has a 7lb rise to overcome, he's a strong traveller who is capable of achieving bigger things. Reopposing fourth Character Testing would have a live chance if reproducing his runner-up effort behind the selection in August, while Clean Getaway may enjoy the switch to timber.
Prediction : 1st Littletown Lad 2nd Character Testing 3rd Clean Getaway

Cumnock was narrowly denied on her debut over C&D and she is more than capable of scoring at this level with that experience under her belt. However, the form of MOYANNA's opening third at Hereford last season looks stronger and the booking of Brian Hughes suggests she's ready to open her account. Youlooklikeyourmum and Lady Scarphia are other potential improvers who could have a say in the finish.
Prediction : 1st Moyanna 2nd Cumnock 3rd Youlooklikeyourmum
