Haseef

5/1(+44%)
(3) Haseef 5/1, 9/2, seventh of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 88 days ago. Back down in trip. First run for yard after leaving David Evans. Cheekpieces on first time and this looks a more sensible trip.

Doonbeg Farmer

40/1(-122%)
(9) Doonbeg Farmer 40/1, Hood on for first time in this code, pulled up in novice hurdle (150/1) at Fontwell (17.7f, good to firm) on NH debut, pulling hard. Moved yards again.
Has lost his way and makes debut for another new yard after 233 days off; tongue-tie on.

Tacitus

28/1(-75%)
(2) Tacitus 28/1, 25/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Musselburgh (9f, soft). Off 6 months but has a career-low mark to exploit.
Has run well fresh before, but he is inconsistent and is now 0-15.

(13) Independent Beauty 28/1, Remains a maiden after 23 Flat runs. Creditable fifth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (25/1) 31 days ago.

Superstar Dj

4.5/1(+36%)
(7) Superstar Dj 4.5/1, Winner at Southwell in October. 13/2, tenth of 14 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, soft) 18 days ago. Shortlist material with drop in trip sure to suit.
Twice held since off the mark at Southwell last October, but could bounce back.

Dutch Admiral

66/1(-230%)
(4) Dutch Admiral 66/1, Cheekpieces on for first time in this code, fourth of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 50/1) 12 days ago. That was a bit more like it having been in a slump and a visor is now on.
Ran better at Chelmsford last time, but needs more and shorter trip may not suit; visor on.

Well Prepared

18/1(-140%)
(1) Well Prepared 18/1, Course winner. Latest win at Chelmsford City in February. 5/2, creditable third of 8 in handicap at this course (9.5f) 10 days ago. Likely to give it another good shot.

12th
12th (11) Dew You Believe (9/1 +36%)
Dew You Believe

9/1(+36%)
(11) Dew You Believe 9/1, C&D winner. 4¼ lengths seventh of 8 to Caracristi in handicap (9/1) at this course (9.5f) 46 days ago, unable to sustain effort.
Dual C&D winner and just beaten over 9.5f back here in February, but is inconsistent.
LTO Selection:

17:55 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 8.5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary, 4/1 (8) NON MOLLARE and 6/1 (6) INEXPLICABLE Six are likely to do well as they have recent wins and good performances in their last races. 7.5/1 (1) WELL PREPARED and 7.5/1 (5) CARACRISTI are also strong contenders, while 14/1 (10) STORM ASSET and 40/1 (13) INDEPENDENT BEAUTY may struggle given their recent performances and overall record.

Well Prepared has to be respected off the same mark as when beaten under a length at this track last time and the six-year-old is likely to be thereabouts once more. However, a chance can be taken on INEXPLICABLE, as he ran well into third over C&D on his penultimate start and is fancied to show that level of form to go close off the same rating. Caracristi completes the shortlist.

The return to the AW coupled with this slight drop back in trip looks ideal for SUPERSTAR DJ, so he's selected to double his career tally. Non Mollare and Well Prepared are solid opponents.

Preference is for NON MOLLARE who won well over C&D last month and was a close third in a similar contest at Southwell last time.

Chalk Mountain

2.5/1(+55%)
(4) Chalk Mountain 2.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tenth of 12 in nursery at Chelmsford City (6f, 16/1). Off 173 days. Makes tapeta debut. Something to find on form.
Down the field in sole 2yo handicap and improvement needed on reappearance.

Aihawawi

2.75/1(-46%)
(1) Aihawawi 2.75/1, Found improvement when second of 5 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) on return 12 days ago, sticking to task. Sets the standard on that form.
Runner-up on recent reappearance at Newcastle and solid claims off the same mark.

3rd (3) Victory House (6/1 +33%)
Victory House

6/1(+33%)
(3) Victory House 6/1, Bit below form when fifth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 40/1) 20 days ago. Step back up in trip a plus, though, and not ruled out.
Could appreciate this step back up in trip but claims aren't compelling on recent evidence.
4
4th (2) Eight Mile (4.5/1 -100%)
Eight Mile

4.5/1(-100%)
(2) Eight Mile 4.5/1, Off the mark at Lingfield (8f) last month and backed that up with good third of 14 in handicap at Bath (8f, soft, 13/2) 18 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Likely contender.
In good form over 1m the last twice; drops back in trip here but has a progressive profile.
5th
5th (5) Beautiful Star (5/1 +58%)
Beautiful Star

5/1(+58%)
(5) Beautiful Star 5/1, Ninth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 18/1) 16 days ago, left poorly placed. Needs a couple of these to falter.
Below par the last twice and now 0-10 but mark has fallen and stable is in fine form.
6th
6th (6) Bridge Water (10/1 -43%)
Bridge Water

10/1(-43%)
(6) Bridge Water 10/1, 14/1, eighth of 12 in handicap at Redcar (6f, heavy) 15 days ago. Others more persuasive.
Encouraging 3rd at Kempton in February and soft ground may not have suited a fortnight ago.
LTO Selection:

18:25 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary, 1.88/1 (1) AIHAWAWI and 2.25/1 (2) EIGHT MILE seem to be the most likely contenders, with 1.88/1 (1) AIHAWAWI setting the standard and 2.25/1 (2) EIGHT MILE having a progressive profile and good recent form. 9/1 (3) VICTORY HOUSE and 12/1 (5) BEAUTIFUL STAR may have an outside chance if they can improve from their recent performances. 5.5/1 (4) CHALK MOUNTAIN and 7/1 (6) BRIDGE WATER seem to have something to find on form.

AIHAWAWI was just touched off on his return to action at Newcastle last time and a repeat of that display would give him a leading chance to gain a first career success. The son of Ribchester looks the only likely pace angle in the race and that could prove to be significant. The main threat comes from Eight Mile, who has run with great consistency this year and can remain competitive, while Beautiful Star could benefit from dropping back in distance.

AIHAWAWI upped his game when runner-up at Newcastle earlier this month and is taken to go one better here. Eight Mile arrives in good form and is the obvious danger.

Having shown improved form when runner-up at Newcastle on his recent reappearance, AIHAWAWI is taken to go one better.

Good Morals

0.73/1(+42%)
(3) Good Morals 0.73/1, Fair efforts all 3 starts to date, ending campaign with solid third of 10 in minor event at Yarmouth (8f, soft, 5/1) in October. Well worth a try at this longer trip and holds strong claims.
Placed in her last two starts as a 2yo and should get the longer trip; very much a player.

2nd (4) Polar Princess (1.38/1 -15%)
Polar Princess

1.38/1(-15%)
(4) Polar Princess 1.38/1, Posted promising fourth of 6 in minor event at Kempton (11f, 10/1) on debut 20 days ago, slowly away. Should have learnt plenty from that experience.
Looked to need her Kempton debut; respected if coming on from it.
3
3rd (1) She's Out Of Reach (125/1 +0%)
She's Out Of Reach

125/1(+0%)
(1) She's Out Of Reach 125/1, Once-raced maiden on Flat. 250/1, first run since leaving Jake Thomas Coulson when fifth of 6 in minor event at this C&D on flat debut 15 days ago. Up against it.
Beaten a long way in four bumpers last year and on stable debut over C&D 15 days ago.
4
4th (2) Stepmother (16/1 -191%)
Stepmother

16/1(-191%)
(2) Stepmother 16/1, Twice-raced maiden. 16/1, third of 12 in minor event at Kempton (12f). Off 10 months. Improvement required on debut for new yard.
Ran well on her second start and makes her stable debut after ten months off.
LTO Selection:

18:55 Wolverhampton Stakes (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

1.25/1 (3) GOOD MORALS is likely to do well as she has placed in her last two starts and has performed consistently in all three starts to date. She also holds strong claims and should do well over the longer trip.

POLAR PRINCESS kept on well to finish fourth on debut at Kempton and the daughter of Ulysses is open to a fair amount of improvement, with the extra furlong potentially aiding her cause. Good Morals showed up well on a couple of occasions as a juvenile, most notably when a head second at Newcastle in October, and she could have a say taking a big step up in trip. Stepmother can get the better of She's Out Of Reach in the battle for third.

This can go to POLAR PRINCESS, who offered plenty to work on from her Kempton debut earlier this month. Good Morals is the obvious danger.

Preference is for GOOD MORALS who showed ability in her final two starts last year and may have more to offer over middle distances.

Some ability in Ireland last year, but never involved on stable debut; may need further.

(2) Ballymore Vision 1.1/1, Promising individual. Fifth of 10 in maiden (25/1) at Newmarket (7f, good) on debut in September. Subsequently gelded. Capable of better and leading claims.
Showed ability in one start last autumn and is a half-brother to two AW winners.

Bred to handle the surface, but would be a rare winning newcomer from the stable.
LTO Selection:

19:25 Wolverhampton Stakes (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

It is difficult to confidently predict which horse will do well based on this summary alone, as all of the horses have shown some level of ability or potential. However, 1.5/1 (2) BALLYMORE VISION and 7/1 (6) WALL GAME both have promising previous starts and are seen as capable of improvement, making them potential contenders. 6/1 (8) PEARLY STAR also showed some ability in her debut and may improve. Betting and market trends could help guide expectations for 14/1 (1) ARAWAN and 50/1 (7) BLISSFILLY.

BALLYMORE VISION shaped with plenty of promise when fifth on his sole outing at Newmarket in September. Richard Hannon's charge, who has been gelded since that effort, cost 120,000gns as a yearling and gets the nod on his seasonal reappearance. If he fails to fire, the most experienced runner in the contest, Valkyrian, may be able to pick up the pieces. Eden Storm gave a good account when fifth at Southwell earlier this month and is another to consider.

BALLYMORE VISION made an encouraging start to his career at Newmarket last autumn and might have struck upon a weakish race on his return to action. Wall Game, Nine Six Five and Pearly Star have the potential for better and can fight it out for minor honours.

Preference is for BALLYMORE VISION who showed ability on his Newmarket debut last autumn and is a half-brother to two AW winners.

(8) Mr Rumbalicious 2.75/1, Found it easier dropped in grade, justifying good support to land 7-runner minor event at Lingfield (15.8f, AW) 29 days ago, well positioned in a steadily-run race. Still, he remains unexposed at this sort of trip and claims from such a lowly mark returned to handicaps.

Dual course winner well down the weights, but recent efforts have been modest.
LTO Selection:

20:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

12/1 (2) VIENNA GIRL and 9/1 (5) HUSCARI are the most likely to do well based on their promising performances in previous events and their favorable conditions for this race. 1.88/1 (8) MR RUMBALICIOUS and 6.5/1 (4) ASK PETER could also be contenders given their recent successes and potential for improvement at this distance. The other horses mentioned have either had inconsistent performances or show little potential to contend in this race.

MR RUMBALICIOUS relished the step up to this distance when recording a first career victory in a classified event at Lingfield last time out. The son of Kodiac returns to handicap company off an unchanged mark and is capable of backing that performance up, with David Probert taking the ride. Huscari was by no means disgraced when fourth at Chelmsford earlier this month and remains of interest, while the handicapper has given a chance to Glory And Honour on his return to the all-weather.

MR RUMBALICIOUS matched his previous best when opening his account in a 7-runner Lingfield minor event 4 weeks ago and, from a basement mark, he looks set to go well again returned to handicaps. Vienna Girl, a fair winner in bumpers, is interesting now upped in trip for her handicap debut, with Young Endless and Scarborough Castle others worth a second look.

It may be worth taking a chance with dual course winner SCARBOROUGH CASTLE who is up in trip, but is a half-brother to a 2m winner.

(8) Equiami 7/1, Career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 10/3) 11 days ago. This is a deeper race but he's going the right way.
Narrowly off the mark at Southwell last time; shaped as though the stiffer test would suit.

Beautiful Eyes

16/1(-33%)
(4) Beautiful Eyes 16/1, 10/1, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 24 days ago. Significantly up in trip.
Steps up in trip, but there is stamina in her pedigree so a case can be made.
LTO Selection:

20:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 9f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary, 4.5/1 (2) NATIVE BEACH and 6.5/1 (8) EQUIAMI seem to be the strongest contenders. 4.5/1 (2) NATIVE BEACH has won a maiden race last time out and is up in trip for her handicap debut, while 6.5/1 (8) EQUIAMI narrowly won his last race and is going the right way. 4/1 (5) HOBSON POINT and 3.5/1 (7) SO CHIC are also worth considering as they have had good recent performances despite not winning.

NATIVE BEACH showed a willing attitude when gaining a breakthrough win in a maiden contest here earlier in the month and Sir Mark Todd's colt could have more to offer now entering handicaps. Equiami returned to the winner's enclosure for his first time having got up to win at Southwell earlier in the month and he is feared most off only 2lb higher. Hobson Point also looks capable of picking up a race from his current rating and isn't taken lightly.

An open handicap with SO CHIC just about the most compelling option having won here in March and she was moving forward with purpose when denied a clear run at Kempton a fortnight ago. Hobson Point is likely to give it another good go, along with Native Beach.

The choice is EQUIAMI who has improved with each run on the AW. He shaped at Southwell last time as though the stiffer test would suit.

7/1(+30%)
(12) Sympathise 7/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 150/1, first run since leaving Paul George when close second of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f) 25 days ago. Needs to show she can back that up now.
Improved plenty when beaten a neck on stable/handicap debut at Lingfield last time.

Another Angel

12/1(-50%)
(4) Another Angel 12/1, Won 9-runner C&D handicap 17 days ago under 5 lb claimer Mark Winn. Should remain competitive from his revised mark but the widest stall isn't ideal.
Won for the first time over 6f here this month, but 5lb higher and drawn in stall 13.

(10) Billian 5/1, Runner-up 3 times this year prior to belatedly gaining a second career success in 9-runner C&D classified event 4 weeks ago. Another to consider.
Running well lately including a C&D success last time, but could have been drawn better.

9/1(-13%)
(3) Catesby 9/1, C&D winner in March. 7/1, below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (6f) since.
Both wins have come over C&D; not discounted back here down in class.

(7) Fristel 6.5/1, Remains a maiden after 16 starts. Bit below form 3½ lengths fifth of 9 to Another Angel over C&D (9/2) 17 days ago, a slow start not helping. Respectable third at Lingfield prior to that.
Could get closer to Another Angel than last time with a cleaner break, but is now 0-16.

Pandemic Princess

33/1(-83%)
(8) Pandemic Princess 33/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at this course (5f, 66/1) 28 days ago, left poorly placed after another slowish start. Needs to break on terms.
Ran better last time and return to this trip should suit; each-way claims down in grade.

Toplight

(2) Toplight 7/1, Four-time course winner, the latest over 5f in March. 18/1, eighth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f) 25 days ago but respected back here.
All wins at 5f and has been unplaced in seven starts at 6f; opposable.

Dual C&D winner and 1lb below last winning mark; capable of playing a part off this mark.

(1) Dark Design 4/1, 17/2, shaped better than result when fifth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f) 25 days ago, doing too much too soon from wide stall. Draw has been kinder this time. Shortlist material.
Behind a couple of these at Lingfield last time, but better drawn here; could go well.

(6) Aikido 12/1, Unreliable individual. Back to winning ways at Southwell in March but no surprise that she wasn't in the same form back there since.
Ended a losing run at Southwell last month, but never figured there next time.
13th
13th (11) Gharbeyih (40/1 -43%)
Gharbeyih

40/1(-43%)
(11) Gharbeyih 40/1, Well-held fourth of 6 in handicap at this course (7f, 22/1) 15 days ago. Less exposed than most of these rivals but she needs improvement to play a prominent role.
Lightly raced 4yo maiden; return to 6f may help, but the draw hasn't been kind.
LTO Selection:

21:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

6.5/1 (5) MAY REMAIN appears to be the favorite to do well in this race, with two recent wins on this course and distance and a bid for a possible hat-trick. Other contenders to consider are 7/1 (10) BILLIAN, who has been running well and won a C&D race last time, and 8/1 (3) CATESBY, a C&D winner in March. 8/1 (4) ANOTHER ANGEL, who won on this course and distance last time but is now 5lb higher and drawn in a wide stall, could also remain competitive.

Billian returns to handicap company having won a classified stakes contest over C&D last month and a 1lb nudge in the ratings shouldn't prevent another bold bid. Preference, however, is for fellow last-time-out winner MAY REMAIN, who completed a brace of consecutive victories at this venue when holding on for victory earlier in the month, and a 2lb rise doesn't appear insurmountable. Sympathise almost caused a shock when runner-up on her stable/handicap debut at Lingfield in March and appears capable of backing that effort up.

DARK DESIGN has fared a lot better with the draw here than he did at Lingfield last time and is selected to resume winning ways. The hat-trick seeking May Remain and last-time-out C&D scorer Billian are also on the shortlist.

This can go to SYMPATHISE (nap) who left her previous form behind when beaten a neck on stable/handicap debut at Lingfield last month.

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
