14:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 10f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 (1) (3/1 +14%) Tiffany	3 3/1(+14%)	(1) Tiffany 3/1, Farhh filly who improved on first 2 starts when off the mark in an 11-runner Wolverhampton novice (7f) 15 days ago, staying on to lead final 100 yds. Still looked rough around the edges then and highly likely there's more to come now handicapping for shrewd stable. Likely there's more to come, especially now she's handicapping and handed a stiffer test.
4	4 (4) (4/1 -14%) Outgun	4 4/1(-14%)	(4) Outgun 4/1, Positives to glean from his 3 starts on the AW last year and shaped better than bare result on return/handicap debut when third at Newbury (1m) 26 days ago (first home in group). That should have brought him on and considered with further progress likely. Pleasing comeback, faring best in his group despite pulling hard; open to improvement.
10	10 (10) (5.5/1 -22%) Mathematician	5.5 5.5/1(-22%)	(10) Mathematician 5.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 10 in minor event at Salisbury (7f, firm, 40/1) 28 days ago, off the pace halfway and noted making late headway. Longer trip a plus now handicapping and yard's runners always command respect. Big prices for three starts to date (7f-1m); would want to see some support this time.
2	2 (2) (8/1 +43%) Wadacre Gomez	8 8/1(+43%)	(2) Wadacre Gomez 8/1, Race-by-race progress in maiden/novice events, off the mark at third attempt at Newcastle (10.2f) in April. However, lacklustre efforts both starts in handicaps on turf subsequently and return to AW needs to have positive effect now. The return to Tapeta (won his novice in the spring) should help down 2lb; watch the market.
5	5 (5) (8/1 +0%) I'm Too Tired	8 8/1(+0%)	(5) I'm Too Tired 8/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 9/1, good fourth of 12 in handicap at this course (8.6f) 22 days ago, no extra final 100 yds. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Looks competitive on form. Yard enjoying a good spell and he ran well back from a break here last time; considered.
8	8 (8) (8.5/1 +15%) Paradise Row	8.5 8.5/1(+15%)	(8) Paradise Row 8.5/1, Thrice-raced winner. 1 win from 3 runs this year. Won 11-runner maiden at Chelmsford City (10f, 4/1) 19 days ago, benefiting from the increase in trip. That ought not prove her limit now switched to handicap company. Better with each of her three starts and looks to begin handicap life on a workable mark.
3	3 (3) (8.5/1 +70%) Roar Emotion	8.5 8.5/1(+70%)	(3) Roar Emotion 8.5/1, Improved markedly to make winning return/handicap debut at Kempton (1m) in April, leading over 1f out. Too free when trailing in last of 17 in handicap at Newbury (10f) since. Good pace to aim at here will help. Two AW (Polytrack) efforts much better than his three turf runs; needs to settle better.
7	7 (7) (9/1 -13%) Fleur De Mer	9 9/1(-13%)	(7) Fleur De Mer 9/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 33/1, eighth of 11 in minor event at Goodwood (8f, good to firm) 32 days ago, needing stiffer test. Makes handicap debut. Likely to improve. Stiffer test should suit (half-sister to a 1m4f winner here); watch the market.
9	9 (9) (20/1 +20%) Eagle Eyed Tom	20 20/1(+20%)	(9) Eagle Eyed Tom 20/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Ninth of 13 in maiden at Kempton (7f, 25/1) in May, slowly away. Significantly up in trip for handicap debut and the betting may well prove a useful guide back from a break. Hasn't offered a huge amount in three starts to date and will need to settle better.
6	6 (6) (40/1 -100%) Mirabello Bay	40 40/1(-100%)	(6) Mirabello Bay 40/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in March. Last of 5 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm, 18/1) 15 days ago, driven out wide straight and making no impression. Return to AW could well have positive effect now. 4-8 on the AW, 0-10 on turf, so the return here (2-4) ought to help; is exposed though.

LTO Selection:

14:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

TIFFANY broke her maiden at the third time of asking over 7f here and the fact that was a staying-on success makes this longer distance worth exploring. An opening mark of 72 seems workable for Sir Mark Prescott's filly and even though she has to shoulder top weight, she rates the one to beat. Outgun is on the same mark as when third on his handicap debut at Newbury and is feared most up in trip, while Chelmsford winner Paradise Row is worth considering on her first foray into handicap company.

An interesting opener with the narrow vote in favour of OUTGUN. He showed improved form on return/handicap debut when third at Newbury (1m) 26 days ago (first home in group). Entitled to come on for that run, this longer trip may unlock further progress and he can go well from a handy draw. I'm Too Tired and Mirabello Bay returned to AW are feared, with Tiffany another worth a look.

The step up from 7f looks ideal for TIFFANY (nap) and she's preferred to Outgun, another who's open to improvement.

15:05 Wolverhampton Stakes (Class 5) 10f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
10	10 (10) (1.38/1 +45%) Value Added	1.38 1.38/1(+45%)	(10) Value Added 1.38/1, Iffraaj filly who, ridden more positively than previously, ran best race when second in 12-runner maiden at Windsor (10f) 8 days ago. Can feature again with a repeat. Made most for William Buick on turf last week and holds obvious claims on that.
7	7 (7) (2.25/1 +18%) Emma Emilleen	2.25 2.25/1(+18%)	(7) Emma Emilleen 2.25/1, Lope De Vega filly who has displayed race-by-race progress to date, second in 15-runner Nottingham maiden (8.3f) 26 days ago, caught final 50 yds. Bred to be suited by this longer trip and she's one of the likelier types. Promises to be better suited by today's longer trip and goes on the shortlist.
2	2 (2) (4/1 -145%) Queen Regent	4 4/1(-145%)	(2) Queen Regent 4/1, Bright start when third on debut in a Kempton (1m) in February and confirmed that promise when opening her account at Newcastle (1m) later that month. Absent since but she remains open to improvement for leading stable and shortlisted here. Two solid efforts early in the year; shapes as though this stiffer test will suit.
9	9 (9) (4/1 +33%) Quantum Light	4 4/1(+33%)	(9) Quantum Light 4/1, Fairly useful maiden who ran best race yet when runner-up on return in 9-runner handicap here (8.6f) in May. Not in same form at Haydock since but feasible to think she can bounce back. Poor on turf latest; needs to settle from the outside stall and is looking exposed now.
6	6 (6) (80/1 -142%) Double Tot	80 80/1(-142%)	(6) Double Tot 80/1, Once-raced maiden. Eighth of 10 in minor event at Thirsk (7f, good, 12/1) on debut, very slowly away. Off 11 months. Significantly up in trip. Off for a year since a poor debut at Thirsk (blew the start badly); the market will guide.
5	5 (5) (80/1 -60%) Daliso	80 80/1(-60%)	(5) Daliso 80/1, €56,000 foal, Zoffany filly. Half-sister to several winners, including smart 2-y-o 7f winner Bronterre and 7f/1m winner Dark Wonder. Betting should prove a useful guide on debut. 56,000euros half-sister to four winners; yard 0-38 in novices over the past 18 months.
4	4 (4) (80/1 +0%) Cracked Up	80 80/1(+0%)	(4) Cracked Up 80/1, Twice-raced maiden. 100/1, ninth of 15 in minor event at Chelmsford City (10f) 33 days ago, racing off the pace and struggling home turn. Handicaps entitled to be more her bag in due course. From a decent family but hasn't looked up to much herself in two runs.
11	11 (11) (150/1 -200%) Vida Louca	150 150/1(-200%)	(11) Vida Louca 150/1, £5,500 yearling, Tamayuz filly. Half-sister to several winners, including useful winner up to 7f Paws For Thought and 6f winner With Caution. Likely best watched on racecourse bow. Half-sister to four winners who's probably best watched for a yard that remains quiet.
1	1 (1) (200/1 -100%) Cheers Babe	200 200/1(-100%)	(1) Cheers Babe 200/1, Once-raced maiden. Seventh of 8 in minor event (80/1) at Windsor (10f, good to firm) on debut 22 days ago. Passed over here. Big price for her Windsor debut three weeks ago and ran accordingly; can't be touched.
3	3 (3) (200/1 -400%) Anticipating	200 200/1(-400%)	(3) Anticipating 200/1, Shaped as if in need of the experience when sixth of 7 in maiden at Goodwood (8f, heavy) on debut 66 days ago, slowly away. This ought to reveal more. Looks best watched today after a low-key heavy-ground debut in the spring.

LTO Selection:

15:05 Wolverhampton Stakes (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

A comfortable winner over a mile at Newcastle in February, a reproduction of that effort can see Queen Regent firmly in the picture. However, she has to shoulder a 7lb penalty so VALUE ADDED gets the nod. The daughter of Iffraaj was a much-improved second over 1m2f at Windsor and, with more progression likely, is fancied to break her maiden. Quantum Light is better than her most recent effort at Haydock suggests and is just one other with claims.

Having displayed plenty of promise on debut at Kempton in February, QUEEN REGENT only needed to match that form when opening her account at Newcastle later that month. However, open to further progress she could be the way to go now stepping up in trip. Emma Emilleen, Value Added and Quantum Light head up the dangers, in that order.

Open to improvement now handed a stiffer test, QUEEN REGENT can concede 7lb to Emma Emilleen and Value Added (second choice).

15:40 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 5f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 (1) (2/1 +50%) Spanish Angel	2 2/1(+50%)	(1) Spanish Angel 2/1, C&D winner. 7/1, good second of 12 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 6 days ago. 10 lb higher back on the AW but needs considering all the same. In good form, likes it here and remains consistent, so will again rightly be popular.
3	3 (3) (4/1 +64%) Jarvis	4 4/1(+64%)	(3) Jarvis 4/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Ninth of 14 in handicap (33/1) at Newcastle (5f) 11 days ago. Probably best to look elsewhere. Has the toe to take advantage of stall 1 but he'll need to improve on recent efforts.
9	9 (9) (6/1 -9%) Munificent	6 6/1(-9%)	(9) Munificent 6/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Yarmouth in April. Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap (10/1) at Chelmsford City (5f) 19 days ago, met some trouble. Each-way shout. Hasn't always looked the easiest but he goes well over C&D; player if things fall his way.
10	10 (10) (7.5/1 -36%) American Rose	7.5 7.5/1(-36%)	(10) American Rose 7.5/1, C&D winner. 13/2, respectable third of 6 in handicap at Windsor (5.1f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Perhaps vulnerable for win purposes but unlikely that she will be far away. Was always wide at Windsor off this mark last time and is one of the likelier winners.
5	5 (5) (9/1 +36%) Bethersden Boy	9 9/1(+36%)	(5) Bethersden Boy 9/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 28/1) 59 days ago. Every chance if back to best but a revival would be something of a bolt out of the blue. Regressive gelding who's run over 5f only twice, finishing well beaten each time.
6	6 (6) (9/1 -13%) Tathmeen	9 9/1(-13%)	(6) Tathmeen 9/1, Four-time course winner. 3 wins from 15 runs this year. 12/1, respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 64 days ago. Enters calculations. 6f is probably his optimum now but he is back on his last successful mark.
7	7 (7) (10/1 -122%) Cuban Grey	10 10/1(-122%)	(7) Cuban Grey 10/1, C&D winner in March. Fifth of 6 in handicap (4/1) back here 15 days ago. Possibilities if he puts his best foot forward. Well positioned and this is a bit easier, so he needs considering.
4	4 (4) (11/1 +45%) Fai Fai	11 11/1(+45%)	(4) Fai Fai 11/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. Seventh of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 33/1) 63 days ago. Hard to recommend based on recent evidence. Sharp regression since coming over from France and he's hard to fancy.
2	2 (2) (14/1 -40%) Captain's Bar	14 14/1(-40%)	(2) Captain's Bar 14/1, 40/1, twelfth of 13 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Has been given a chance by the assessor and a danger to all if able to bounce back. Well held in three runs for his current yard; hard to find any positives.

LTO Selection:

15:40 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

This represents a drop in class for MUNIFICENT and Chelsea Banham's five-year-old is taken to build on a fair fifth at Chelmsford. He remains 3lb above his last winning mark, which came at Yarmouth in April, but is fancied to get the better of Spanish Angel, who reverts to the all-weather following a good second at Thirsk. American Rose and Cuban Grey complete the shortlist.

This looks pretty open and, dropping to 0-65 company for the first time, CAPTAIN'S BAR could be the answer. The 4-y-o hasn't troubled the judge in a few runs since joining the Scott Dixon yard but his recent reappearance spin will have blown away the cobwebs and he's now 7 lb below the mark off which he was second in a Kempton handicap on his final start for Richard Hannon last June. The consistent Spanish Angel looks set for another leading role and is second choice ahead of Tathmeen.

American Rose ought to run well again but strong traveller MUNIFICENT boasts a good record over C&D and gets the nod.

16:15 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 6f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 (1) (0.73/1 +61%) Sharp Power	0.73 0.73/1(+61%)	(1) Sharp Power 0.73/1, 7/4, career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Windsor (6f, firm) 9 days ago, pushed out. Escapes a penalty for that and will prove hard to beat with William Buick in the hot-seat. This is more competitive but he has no penalty and William Buick is an obvious plus.
4	4 (4) (5.5/1 -38%) Imperial Dream	5.5 5.5/1(-38%)	(4) Imperial Dream 5.5/1, Career best when winning 10-runner maiden at this course (7.2f, 13/8) 22 days ago. In good hands to progress but more is certainly needed on this handicap debut. Will need a forward step but should be alright with the drop in trip from a handy draw.
2	2 (2) (6/1 +25%) Mojeyrr	6 6/1(+25%)	(2) Mojeyrr 6/1, Thrice-raced winner. 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Southwell in April. Last of 4 in handicap (4/6) at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and live each-way chance if on-song. Latest turf effort is best ignored; retains potential if the first-time cheekpieces help.
6	6 (6) (6.5/1 -8%) Tallulah Myla	6.5 6.5/1(-8%)	(6) Tallulah Myla 6.5/1, Winner at Chelmsford City in April. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good, 22/1) 17 days ago, faring best of those held up. Another with an each-way chance. Two best efforts came from the front on the AW and she's well drawn; each-way claims.
12	12 (12) (9/1 +0%) Exorbitant	9 9/1(+0%)	(12) Exorbitant 9/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Second of 5 in minor event at this C&D (11/2) 47 days ago. Makes handicap debut and improvement is not out of the question. More professional from the front over C&D latest; handicapper appears to have been fair.
9	9 (9) (14/1 -56%) Daytona Lady	14 14/1(-56%)	(9) Daytona Lady 14/1, Latest win at Southwell in February. Bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, good to firm, 9/1) 42 days ago. Others make more appeal. Exposed filly who often misses the break and is usually dropped in; will need the breaks.
3	3 (3) (22/1 -38%) King's Gem	22 22/1(-38%)	(3) King's Gem 22/1, Unreliable sort. 3/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 3 in seller at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 24 days ago. The addition of blinkers will need to spark an uplift if he's to take this. Never happy on his recent return from a break; risks attached now switched to blinkers.
5	5 (5) (40/1 -150%) Dyed In The Wool	40 40/1(-150%)	(5) Dyed In The Wool 40/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Newcastle in January. 5/1, third of 5 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f), needing stiffer test. Off 149 days (has undergone a wind op) and place possibilities. Yard also saddles Storm Venture. Has had a wind operation and will need to have improved for it coming from stall 12.
13	13 (13) (66/1 -164%) Royal Mariner	66 66/1(-164%)	(13) Royal Mariner 66/1, 17/2, fifth of 6 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, firm) 27 days ago. Blinkers back on. Others are more persuasive. Switch back to AW and return of headgear are two angles in with him; could do better.
8	8 (8) (100/1 -203%) Storm Venture	100 100/1(-203%)	(8) Storm Venture 100/1, Last of 6 in handicap (8/1) at Hamilton (6f, firm) 27 days ago, hampered. Makes tapeta debut and improvement will be needed if he's to get off the mark here. Finished a well-beaten last of six on his comeback last month having been gelded.
7	7 (7) (125/1 -89%) Strength 'n Honour	125 125/1(-89%)	(7) Strength 'n Honour 125/1, 50/1, last of 7 in handicap at Redcar (5f, good to soft) 50 days ago. Back up in trip and blinkered for 1st time. Best to look elsewhere. Poor in two runs back for his new yard; switch to blinkers will need to make a difference.

LTO Selection:

16:15 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

SHARP POWER had plenty in hand when landing an apprentice handicap at Windsor nine days ago and as he escapes a penalty for that success, he has a live chance of following up. Fellow last-time-out winner Imperial Dream is also shortlisted, despite dropping back in trip, while Dyed In The Wool, who returns from a wind operation off just 3lb higher than January's Newcastle success, has something to offer too.

The drop back to this trip proved just the tonic for SHARP POWER at Windsor where he landed an apprentices' handicap with plenty left up his sleeve. With no penalty to carry and William Buick taking over, further success is on the cards. Tallulah Myla wasn't disgraced at Newmarket and she could be the one to follow the selection home ahead of handicap debutants Imperial Dream and Exorbitant.

It could be worth giving another chance to MOJEYRR, who was all at sea on turf last time. Sharp Power rates the main danger.

3	3 (3) (1.75/1 +61%) Fantasy Navigator	1.75 1.75/1(+61%)	(3) Fantasy Navigator 1.75/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, respectable fifth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 10/1) 11 days ago, better placed than most. Can give a good account. Not really gone on from 6f Kempton AW win last June; low draw and sharp test should help.
1	1 (1) (4/1 +47%) Flagman	4 4/1(+47%)	(1) Flagman 4/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Kempton in May. Only sixth of 8 in handicap at this course (7.2f, 11/4) 49 days ago so needs to bounce back. Arrived late to win first 6f attempt, on Kempton AW; excuses since; probably needs more.
12	12 (12) (5.5/1 +0%) Struck Gold	5.5 5.5/1(+0%)	(12) Struck Gold 5.5/1, 3/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, good second of 8 in handicap at this C&D 15 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Needs considering nudged up just 1 lb. Two close calls in 6f Tapeta events, most recently over C&D; can go well again.
4	4 (4) (6/1 -9%) Yaahobby	6 6/1(-9%)	(4) Yaahobby 6/1, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 7/1, good third of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 20 days ago. Can go well again. Mostly in good form of late and close up at Newcastle recently (6f); on the premises.
6	6 (6) (6.5/1 +46%) Show Compassion	6.5 6.5/1(+46%)	(6) Show Compassion 6.5/1, Blinkered for 1st time, seventh of 11 in handicap (9/1) at Musselburgh (5f, good) 18 days ago. Back up in trip. Can make presence felt if shrugging off latest effort. Went close to first win over 5f here in March; not done as well since; risky at 6f.
8	8 (8) (6.5/1 +13%) Arlecchino's Gift	6.5 6.5/1(+13%)	(8) Arlecchino's Gift 6.5/1, C&D winner. Won 12-runner handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm, 22/1) 15 days ago. Merits consideration despite 4 lb rise. Engaged 7.35 Chepstow Monday. Seemed to have lost his way but won off lowest-ever mark at Windsor 15 days ago.
7	7 (7) (14/1 +0%) Coast	14 14/1(+0%)	(7) Coast 14/1, Took this contest 12 months ago so can't be ruled out despite coming in only eighth of 11 in handicap (12/1) at this C&D 47 days ago. Mark is easing too. Both wins over C&D in 2022 but blows in and out of form and below best on last 2 starts.
2	2 (2) (14/1 +0%) Jumira Bridge	14 14/1(+0%)	(2) Jumira Bridge 14/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in May. Bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap (12/1) at this C&D 36 days ago, very slowly away. Needs a couple of these to falter. Below best latest but very capable at this level when on song, as when C&D winner in May.
10	10 (10) (18/1 +0%) Dodgy Bob	18 18/1(+0%)	(10) Dodgy Bob 18/1, Course winner. Latest win here in March. Respectable 5¼ lengths sixth of 11 to Magic Gem in minor event at this course (7.2f, 25/1) 15 days ago. One for the shortlist. Most recent win over 7f here in March; hasn't flourished since; work to do back at 6f.
11	11 (11) (33/1 +34%) Sparkling Diamond	33 33/1(+34%)	(11) Sparkling Diamond 33/1, C&D winner. First run since leaving Frank Bishop when seventh of 10 in minor event at Brighton (6f, good, 28/1) 7 days ago. Thirty two runs since last win in 2020. Engaged 7.35 Chepstow Monday. Sole win came over C&D in 2020; has struggled for long time now.
9	9 (9) (40/1 -21%) Irish Rocket	40 40/1(-21%)	(9) Irish Rocket 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 8/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, seventh of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Easy to look elsewhere. Has hinted at ability on AW but never involved on handicap debut at Yarmouth (6f).
13	13 (13) (150/1 -127%) Hiya Hiya	150 150/1(-127%)	(13) Hiya Hiya 150/1, First run since leaving Joseph Parr when last of 9 in handicap (80/1) at Salisbury (6f, firm) 28 days ago. Needs a big step forward. Not yet shown much in 6f and 7f events on AW and turf, including for new yard latest.

LTO Selection:

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

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

Yaahobby seems versatile regarding the racing surface but his two previous career successes have come at this circuit and he is a big player. He is competitively rated and another bold effort is expected, but MAGIC GEM looks the one to side with following his triumphant comeback over 7f here and, off just 2lb higher, he may have more to give on his first attempt at this trip. Struck Gold and Dodgy Bob are also considered.

Lots with chances. MAGIC GEM got off to a winning start for David Griffiths over 7f here last time and can complete his hat-trick now back in handicap company with this drop back in trip a likely plus. Struck Gold could emerge as the chief threat on the back of his good C&D second. Last year's winner Coast can also have a say off an easing mark.

Magic Gem could be suited by the drop to 6f but STRUCK GOLD is well suited by Tapeta and his turn is surely near.

3	3 (3) (8.5/1 -89%) Bungle Bay	8.5 8.5/1(-89%)	(3) Bungle Bay 8.5/1, C&D winner in January. Respectable second of 8 in handicap (4/1) at Leicester (5f, good) 12 days ago. Back up in trip.

9	9 (9) (66/1 -136%) My Kind Of Girl	66 66/1(-136%)	(9) My Kind Of Girl 66/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 5/1, last of 8 in maiden at this course (5f) when last seen in December. Unexposed now handicapping. One to note in the betting. Promise over C&D on second start; lacks recent run but goes handicapping off modest mark.

LTO Selection:

17:25 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

CATESBY goes well for Elisha Whittington and, given she claims 5lb, carrying joint top-weight might not be insurmountable for this dual C&D winner. Dropping back in trip is very much in his favour and it would come as no surprise to see him help to set strong fractions on the front end. Bungle Bay would benefit from that scenario and he is feared most, while Admirable Lad and Clownsman both have solid enough form to make the shortlist.

ADMIRABLE LAD took a step back in the right direction when second on turf last time and is on a winning mark if able to build on that. The return to 6f should suit Bungle Bay who is second choice ahead of Catesby.

Admirable Lad should go well after returning to form at Bath but CLOWNSMAN can gain compensation for a luckless reappearance defeat.

1	1 (1) (4/1 +33%) Crystal Dawn	4 4/1(+33%)	(1) Crystal Dawn 4/1, C&D winner. Very good second of 8 in handicap at this C&D (well-backed 7/2) 49 days ago, suited by way race developed. Leading claims. Ex-Irish mare who has a win and two near-misses to her name over C&D; is on the shortlist.
7	7 (7) (4.5/1 -13%) All Dunn	4.5 4.5/1(-13%)	(7) All Dunn 4.5/1, 3 wins under this rider this year. Fifth of 8 in handicap (3/1) at this course (6.1f) 15 days ago. One to consider. Won three early in the year (6f-1m) and is back around his last successful mark; player.

9	9 (9) (8.5/1 +0%) Latent Heat	8.5 8.5/1(+0%)	(9) Latent Heat 8.5/1, Temperamental sort. C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. Good fourth of 11 in handicap at Ffos Las (7.4f, good to firm, 16/1) 16 days ago, hampered. Must improve. Offered more on turf last time and holds each-way claims on that.
3	3 (3) (9/1 -157%) Pop Favorite	9 9/1(-157%)	(3) Pop Favorite 9/1, 14/1, improved on recent efforts to win 12-runner handicap at Newcastle (8f) 20 days ago. Expected to be bang there. Inconsistent; patchy record at best round here and the drop back in trip is a worry.
2	2 (2) (14/1 -56%) Final Account	14 14/1(-56%)	(2) Final Account 14/1, One win from 25 Flat runs. Winner at Newcastle in February. Last of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 11/1) 67 days ago, slowly away. Needs to bounce back. Has been beyond 6f only twice, finishing well beaten each time, and stamina is the worry.
4	4 (4) (25/1 +11%) Thakrah	25 25/1(+11%)	(4) Thakrah 25/1, Seventh of 8 in handicap (16/1) at Leicester (5f, good) 12 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Makes tapeta debut. Others make more appeal. Has done most racing since handicapping in sprints and again offered little on turf latest.

12	12 (12) (66/1 -100%) Techno Lady	66 66/1(-100%)	(12) Techno Lady 66/1, 28/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 12 days ago. Needs to bounce back if she's to make any impact. Didn't offer much on her recent comeback and is hard to recommend.
11	11 (11) (125/1 -150%) Darke Horse	125 125/1(-150%)	(11) Darke Horse 125/1, Last of 7 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, firm, 66/1) 13 days ago. Back down in trip. Not easy to make a case for. Generally poor over various trips and was beaten a long way on his turf comeback.

LTO Selection:

17:55 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

EBURY is shadow of what he once was but, from a basement rating, he can launch a bold bid here. He has posted several decent efforts in defeat at this course and having dropped to a featherweight since his last visit, he is dangerous to ignore. Spartakos was a couple of places behind the selection when they encountered each other at Beverley in May and is feared most, although Crystal Dawn and Pop Favorite command respect at this level too.

CRYSTAL DAWN is well handicapped and benefited from a return to AW when second over C&D last time, so she's worth chancing to go one better at the possible expense of Pop Favorite, who scored at Newcastle last time. Spartakos is another one to consider.

Usually dropped in, CRYSTAL DAWN's record over C&D is hard to knock and she's preferred to All Dunn.

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.
