LTO Selection:

14:20 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

American Rose has to be of interest as the only C&D winner here, but she hasn't won since December and wears cheekpieces looking to find improvement. Mucky Mulconry has been consistent over 6f of late and seeks to build on recent efforts dropping in trip, but BYEFORNOW may have the edge. Slowly away when second at Lingfield, if she can hit the gates running she might be able to make all over this trip.

AMERICAN ROSE and Byefornow have had contrasting fortunes when it comes to the draw, with the former taken to make the most of stall 1 in first-time cheekpieces dropped in grade. Mucky Mulconry is the other one of interest.

Top of the list is MUCKY MULCONRY, who was a good front-running third here last time and looks interesting on this drop back in trip.

42,000gns half-brother to a useful 5f 2yo winner; needs watching in market on debut.
LTO Selection:

14:50 Wolverhampton Maiden (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Mr Baloo would be the form pick after his two-length third at Salisbury and, after keeping on late that day, the sixth furlong may eke out further improvement. He can go close, but a chance is taken on newcomer KORROOR, a son of Kodiac who races for the Archie Watson yard which has a 4-4 record with juveniles on the all-weather this year. Never Fear will also know her job first time out.

It should pay to focus on the newcomers, with KORROOR, representing a yard with a superb record with 2-y-o newcomers the percentage call without the benefit of betting clues. Edward and Never Fear are also likely types.

The vote goes to MR BALOO, who sets a fair standard on his third at Salisbury and is open to more progress on this step up in trip.

(3) Concierge 7.5/1, C&D winner. Twenty one runs since last win in 2021. Third of 7 in handicap (9/2) at Windsor (5.1f, heavy) 17 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Return to 6f therefore in his favour.

Multiple AW winner who is on dangerous mark and he's in the mix on this drop back in grade.
LTO Selection:

15:20 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

CATESBY won this last year off a mark of 60 and, as he runs off 5lb lower now despite a solid second here over a furlong further last time out, he has to enter calculations. Eldeyaar likes it here and could get involved under Billy Loughnane, though he does need to bounce back to form so his consistent stable companion Another Angel may be the one for second.

SQUEEZEBOX was presumably amiss when heavily backed to make a winning stable debut at Pontefract a month ago but he's been given time to recover from that and the weight of support that day may well be significant. Concierge and Another Angel are a couple of potential threats.

The vote goes to Tapeta specialist ANOTHER ANGEL, who has form figures of 312212 in his last six runs and remains on a workable mark.

LTO Selection:

15:50 Wolverhampton Stakes (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

In a moderate event it is hard to oppose OTTOMAN PRINCE, who won on debut at Chelmsford in October and only found one too good at the same venue on his sole subsequent start the following month. Zeno disappointed last time but is a player based on his effort over C&D on his racecourse bow, while Exorbitant is the pick of the remainder.

OTTOMAN PRINCE displayed plenty of ability at Chelmsford during the autumn, winning on debut before an excellent second under a penalty, and this looks a clear-cut opening for him on return. The battle for second is probably more interesting, with Exorbitant preferred to Zeno.

This looks a golden opportunity for OTTOMAN PRINCE to make a winning return, having shown useful form at Chelmsford last autumn.

Drops in class, but last three efforts leave plenty to be desired.
LTO Selection:

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

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

CHEF DE TROUPE was successful over C&D a few weeks ago and a 2lb rise in the ratings may not be enough to stop him in this company. Victoriano hit the crossbar over 1m6f here recently and he should not be underestimated on the back of that performance. La Belle Vie is another with valid form claims, while Fighting Poet and Social City complete the shortlist.

VICTORIANO found first-time blinkers having a positive effect when second here 13 days ago and, if the headgear works again, he could go one better under a promising claimer. Social City looks a danger and La Belle Vie has been showing more positive signs of late.

Preference is for VICTORIANO who showed that his abiility remains when second here 13 days ago. He has become nicely treated.

LTO Selection:

16:50 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 9f Race Class Flow

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

ODD SOCKS HAVANA has finished second on his last three starts and a chance is taken on this consistent performer. Rebecca Menzies' charge runs off 1lb higher than his length-and-a-quarter defeat at Newcastle last time and this looks like a good opportunity to go one better. Pittsburg is likely to be finishing best having competed over further in recent starts, while Distinction should also be thereabouts.

ODD SOCKS HAVANA has been in excellent form lately and this is a lesser race than the one he contested at Newcastle last time, so he gets the nod with Billy Loughnane taking over. Distinction is a big danger having turned in his best effort of the season at Leicester recently and Pittsburg can't be ruled out.

This can go to ODD SOCKS HAVANA who has been consistent so far this year and has winning form over C&D.

(4) Triggered 2.25/1, 15/2, won 6-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 14 days ago, kept up to work. Shortlist material.
Has won two of his last three starts and this in-form 7yo brings solid credentials.

(5) Ikkari 11/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1, last of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 61 days ago. Others make more appeal.
Well beaten on handicap debut but she raced wide; lightly raced and retains potential.

(2) Dolly Gray 8.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 11 in handicap (16/1) at this course (6.1f). Off 7 months. Uphill task.

Little Earl

7.5/1(+6%)
(6) Little Earl 7.5/1, Unreliable individual. Eleven runs since last win in 2021. Creditable sixth of 13 in handicap (28/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 17 days ago, very slowly away. Blinkers on 1st time. Not completely dismissed.
Mark continues to fall and he didn't run badly last time but he needs something extra here.

(3) Spartan Fighter 12/1, Course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 10/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 37 days ago, unable to sustain effort. On a handy mark if he can put that poor run behind him.
Has dropped to a dangerous mark but he was disappointing at Southwell last time.

(8) Poet 22/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. 80/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at this C&D, very slowly away. Off 118 days. Hard to fancy.
His mark continues to tumble but he hasn't shaped as though he's about to take advantage.

Tom Tulliver

9/1(+18%)
(7) Tom Tulliver 9/1, Latest win at Southwell in March. Last of 17 in handicap (18/1) at Doncaster (7f, heavy) 27 days ago. Needs to bounce back.
Some good form on the Southwell Tapeta this year & can be excused latest run on soft going.
8th
8th (1) Plumette (2.25/1 +32%)
Plumette

2.25/1(+32%)
(1) Plumette 2.25/1, 3-time C&D winner. 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win here in February. Third of 5 in handicap at this C&D (3/1) 22 days ago, running on. Not taken lightly.
Two C&D wins earlier this year and good third over C&D three weeks ago; can be thereabouts.
LTO Selection:

17:25 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

TRIGGERED seems to be thriving of late with two wins in his last three outings and another bold bid can be expected. Mark Loughnane's charge has been raised 6lb in the ratings for his cosy win over 7f at Chelmsford last time and, with Billy Loughnane claiming a valuable 3lb, this in-form gelding might be able to strike again. Plumette likes it around here and is feared most, while Tom Tulliver is noted too.

PLUMETTE has a good record over C&D and shaped well from an unpromising position when third here recently, so she's marginally preferred to Triggered, who scored at Chelmsford last time. Spartan Fighter is probably the pick of the remainder.

The in-form TRIGGERED (nap) is effective over C&D and is taken to win again. Plumette is second choice

About U.K Horse Racing

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.
