UK Horse Racing Tips: Huntingdon

SHERBORNE is expected to have sharpened up for a recent outing at Ffos Las, his first since April, and he should be able to occupy a prominent position in this small field. His best form is on this sort of ground and with the Joe Tizzard yard going well, a big performance looks assured. Fern Hill took this prize home 12 months ago and is a player with race-fitness on his side, while Charles Ritz goes well fresh and is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Sherborne 2nd Fern Hill 3rd Charles Ritz

BREAD AND BUTTER has won here before and makes a good bit of appeal on the back of an improved Plumpton second. He clearly needed his first run back at the Sussex track in September and this could be the time to catch him. Ocean Heights topped up his fitness levels courtesy of a spin on the Flat at Bath and you only have to go back to the start of September for when he won well in this sphere at Newton Abbot. He heads the list of dangers from Teorie.
Prediction : 1st Bread And Butter 2nd Ocean Heights 3rd Teorie

SEVEN STARS will likely prove a warm order and gets the nod in receipt of 7lb from penalised course scorer Dancing Dame. Alan King's charge ran well fresh at Ludlow last season and, following a subsequent Hereford bumper victory, she was deemed good enough for an Aintree Grade 2 in which she shaped with plenty of promise, finishing sixth. Tackling hurdles for the first time, she's expected to know her job and can do the business. Potters Angeltiers could be the one for third.
Prediction : 1st Seven Stars 2nd Dancing Dame 3rd Potters Angeltiers

CAP RICOCHET traces back to Desert Orchid - and carries the same colours as the legendary grey - so it isn't surprising that he has burst into life since going chasing. He defied a 6lb rise to complete a quickfire Market Rasen brace and can continue on his merry way. Helios Allen was third behind him on the latest of those outings, but is only 6lb better off and was fourth at Lingfield last week. Ben Case's nine-year-old still looks the primary threat, ahead of Walk The Plank.
Prediction : 1st Cap Ricochet 2nd Helios Allen 3rd Walk The Plank

LATIN more than paid his way on the all-weather last winter, but hasn't quite managed to do the same over hurdles yet. He came within a whisker of breaking his jumping duck at Plumpton on the third of three starts for Olly Murphy, and new trainer Donald McCain's decision to lower his sights can have the desired effect. Blackwater Lilly couldn't capitalise on a drop into claiming company over C&D, although she does lurk on a dangerous mark. Bright Legend also let down favourite-backers recently, but still rounds out the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Latin 2nd Blackwater Lilly 3rd Bright Legend

CAYMAN DANCER was too free on his Plumpton comeback, but had a hood removed for his next start at that circuit and was given a well-judged ride by Freddie Mitchell to win with plenty up his sleeve. On that evidence, a 7lb penalty shouldn't inconvenience him and he can force recent C&D runner-up Gallivanted to settle for the same position. Virtual Rock failed by just a neck to make it three from three since joining the Des Donovan team so he has to be given maximum respect.
Prediction : 1st Cayman Dancer 2nd Gallivanted 3rd Virtual Rock
