UK Horse Racing Tips: Bath

FRAM CASTLE was a warm favourite to follow up his course success when involved in a void contest over track and trip and Michael Wigham's stayer can gain compensation this time around. Individualiste is 1lb well-in having hit the woodwork at a big price at Wolverhampton so must be respected, while handicap debutant Pacific Storm has fewer blemishes than many and might prove better than an opening mark of 59. Merrijig is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Fram Castle 2nd Individualiste 3rd Pacific Storm

Chanter Le Blues and Casting Coach both made introductions full of promise, and so did Kerry Grey. They're all likely to be on the premises given natural improvement, but superior experience could win the day for URUMITA. Richard Hannon's filly was two lengths in arrears of the reopposing Go Go Girl when fifth at Windsor, but she took a big step forward to finish a narrow second at Wolverhampton and might only need to replicate that effort to come out on top.
Prediction : 1st Urumita 2nd Chanter Le Blues 3rd Casting Coach

Berthed well in stall two, RINKY TINKY TINKY can continue her fine run of form. On target here before following up in a warm series final, also at this venue, Alice Bond has got a really good tune out of the filly, who should have a bit more under the bonnet from a 5lb higher mark. Wolverhampton scorer Little Jaybee has started to find her feet and looks a big threat along with the unexposed Pedros Dream, who arrives on the back of a good second at Windsor.
Prediction : 1st Rinky Tinky Tinky 2nd Little Jaybee 3rd Pedros Dream

BRILLIANT STAR has not been seen since finishing fourth in the Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot, but that form suggests that she could take some stopping at this level. Lady Vivian was second in a Listed event at Sandown two starts ago and could prove to be the main threat on that evidence. That said, progressive three-year-old Pierian won at this venue just over a month ago and should not be underestimated.
Prediction : 1st Brilliant Star 2nd Lady Vivian 3rd Pierian

AETHELSTAN GOLD displayed plenty of promise when filling third place on his racecourse bow at Windsor in August and the son of Saxon Warrior should only benefit from that experience. Galimix has a similar profile to the selection and also makes the shortlist, while any market support for Mystic Shadow would have to be noted. Grapple won a Salisbury seller last month, but faces a tougher test here.
Prediction : 1st Aethelstan Gold 2nd Galimix 3rd Mystic Shadow

OMAN landed an apprentices' race for this rider over C&D last week and the veteran makes plenty of appeal given that he escapes a penalty for that success, leaving him 3lb well-in. Condotti and Prodigal Son are other recent winners who have to be on the shortlist, with marginal preference for the former of that pair. Others to note are Albus Anne and King's Castle.
Prediction : 1st Oman 2nd Condotti 3rd Prodigal Son

Having relished a drop in class, Ffos Las winner Zambezi Magic merits respect. However, he struggled to make an impact in this grade on his penultimate outing at Chester, so it is worth taking a chance on BOY GEORGE. The Equiano gelding offered something to work with on his belated fourth-placed seasonal bow at Goodwood and he's 1lb below his last winning mark. Eutropia could also feature if reproducing her best form this season.
Prediction : 1st Boy George 2nd Zambezi Magic 3rd Eutropia

After securing a ninth career victory when going in over C&D, Moe's Legacy is forecast to be in the shake-up once more. However, a 5lb penalty and a quick turnaround probably demands a career best from the five-year-old, with ready Windsor winner CAMELEY DAYS edging the vote. Chris Dwyer's filly was well found in the market and she scored with enough in hand to suggest that an 8lb hike is surmountable. Fellow last-time-out winners Courageous Sioux and Court Drive add further spice to the mix.
Prediction : 1st Cameley Days 2nd Moes Legacy 3rd Courageous Sioux
