UK Horse Racing Tips: Hereford

A ready winner on his latest start at Huntingdon, INCA rates as one to keep the right side of. That was only the eight-year-old's second outing under the tutelage of Sophie Leech and he may be able to overcome a 9lb hike in the ratings. Prairie Diamond arrives on the back of a good third at Chepstow and he could prove a live threat if gaining an easy lead, while Estate Planning may fare best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Inca 2nd Prairie Diamond 3rd Estate Planning

Although John Galt's jumping didn't hold up on his latest fifth at Sedgefield, a repeat of his debut third at Newton Abbot would see him in the mix. The four-year-old isn't taken lightly stepping up in trip, but KAMILLE AU KANADA is a touch more appealing. Anthony Honeyball's mare was entitled to need her return at Chepstow 15 days ago and this drop in grade may prove just the ticket. Newcomer Theybouncewell is worth a second look in the betting.
Prediction : 1st Kamille Au Kanada 2nd John Galt 3rd Theybouncewell

Having posted two creditable efforts in defeat over timber to date, this could prove a suitable opportunity for JERSEYGEORDIE to open his account. Harry Derham's charge found only a decent Flat horse too strong at Sedgefield 27 days ago and compensation may beckon. Charles Darnay boasts an official rating of 83 on the level and is a potential fly in the ointment on his hurdling bow, while Houndswood Willow could figure if reproducing last month's runner-up effort at Fontwell.
Prediction : 1st Jerseygeordie 2nd Charles Darnay 3rd Houndswood Willow

Hurdling newcomers Aukus and Meritocratic need to be monitored in the betting ahead of their stable debuts, but experience can win the day for OUR WEE HORSE. Harry Derham's gelding was no match for a progressive rival at Fontwell but he was well clear of the remainder in second. If that outing has sharpened him up, he should prove hard to beat.
Prediction : 1st Our Wee Horse 2nd Aukus 3rd Meritocratic

SILVEREEN has improved with each of her runs over timber and made all to break her duck in comfortable fashion at Ludlow. Henry Daly's filly goes handicapping on the back of a summer break and could be well treated from an opening mark of 101, which she is taken to defy. Lucy The Wire won on the level at Kempton earlier this month and is respected back hurdling, while Hello Sweety can be forgiven her latest Stratford run.
Prediction : 1st Silvereen 2nd Lucy The Wire 3rd Hello Sweety

Bath Taverness scored in a bumper at Newton Abbot in July, but she does not seem one to trust at present after running out at Warwick and pulling up when trailing at Chepstow, though a place remains a possibility. Graceful Glance has shown promise, placing on her first two starts, but MISS KINGSTON is preferred. A winner at Chepstow and second since, she was outclassed in a better race when sixth at Worcester and ought to find this company more to her liking.
Prediction : 1st Miss Kingston 2nd Graceful Glance 3rd Bath Taverness

BITS BALLOU showed resolution and stamina to get up late at Newton Abbot to win by a short-head last month. Upped 2lb for that, she has only had six career starts and gets the vote with the promise of more victories to come. Alan Bresil is interesting on his best form, having placed off 6lb higher in a better race in May, and first-time blinkers could see him back to that level. Black Occ is the pick for third.
Prediction : 1st Bits Ballou 2nd Alan Bresil 3rd Black Occ
