16:20 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 12f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	6 1st (6) (12/1 -140%) Sexy Rexy	12 12/1(-140%)	(6) Sexy Rexy 12/1, Shed maiden tag at Chelmsford (13.3f) in April. 25/1, easily best effort for present yard when third of 9 in handicap at this C&D 36 days ago, running on. Not out of things if backing that up again partnered by Billy Loughnane. Returned to form with close third over C&D last month; runs of same mark today.
2	5 2nd (5) (12/1 -20%) Hill Station	12 12/1(-20%)	(5) Hill Station 12/1, Maiden who returned to form following a break when fourth at Kempton (12f) in August. Disappointed over hurdles next time but latest run back on the level probably best overlooked having done plenty on the front end. Blinkers quickly discarded and bounce back not ruled out. Suffered heavy defeat at Kempton a fortnight ago and is now 0-20.
3	1 3rd (1) (7.5/1 -50%) Velvet Vulcan	7.5 7.5/1(-50%)	(1) Velvet Vulcan 7.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, creditable fourth of 12 in handicap (16/1) at Chelmsford (10f) 23 days ago, keeping on straight. This even longer trip worth exploring on that evidence. Low-mileage 4yo; stayed on for fourth over 1m2f last month; tries a new trip today.
4	2 4th (2) (3/1 +0%) Bear Claws	3 3/1(+0%)	(2) Bear Claws 3/1, Confidently ridden when resuming winning ways at Limerick (11.3f) in June. Rise in weights seemed to catch him out thereafter but he's not discounted starting out for new yard, with rider taking off a handy 3 lb. Won on turf in Ireland in June; market may guide on today's stable debut.
5th	3 5th (3) (6/1 +8%) Jenny Ren	6 6/1(+8%)	(3) Jenny Ren 6/1, 3-time C&D winner who matched the form of her reappearance effort when creditable sixth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (11.1f, 33/1) 9 days ago. Now operating just 1 lb above last winning mark. C&D winner off 1lb lower in March; contender if race is run to suit her hold-up tactics.
6th	12 6th (12) (66/1 -100%) Take My Breath	66 66/1(-100%)	(12) Take My Breath 66/1, 50/1, fared a little better than previously when sixth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, heavy) 63 days ago, headway over 1f out and keeping on. Unplaced all six runs and needs this step up in trip to enable improvement.
7th	8 7th (8) (11/2 +54%) Crossbeau	5.5 11/2(+54%)	(8) Crossbeau 11/2, Visored for 1st time, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Beverley (12.1f, soft, 14/1) 67 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Ian McInnes and market support would be interesting operating from this basement mark. Eight-race maiden; claimed out of a seller for £6,000 in August; stable debut today.
8th	11 8th (11) (12/1 +25%) Star Turn	12 12/1(+25%)	(11) Star Turn 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 10 in handicap (20/1) at Kempton (12f) 52 days ago. Much more needed if he's to figure making tapeta debut. Last of eight when 20-1 for handicap debut at Kempton in August; big improvement needed.
9th	10 9th (10) (20/1 +9%) Chelsea Annie	20 20/1(+9%)	(10) Chelsea Annie 20/1, Twenty runs since last win in 2021. Eighth of 10 in handicap (20/1) at Salisbury (9.9f, good) 52 days ago, racing well off the pace and making no impression. Switch back to AW needs to have positive effect here. Not beaten far when last of three on turf in June but two lesser efforts have followed.
10th	7 10th (7) (7/1 +0%) Duchess	7 7/1(+0%)	(7) Duchess 7/1, Remains a maiden after 15 starts but she did run her best race for present yard when fourth in a C&D handicap 2 weeks ago, making late headway. Needs to build on that effort now. Stayed on for fourth over C&D last month but still makes only limited appeal.
11th	4 11th (4) (13/2 +46%) Stormy Denise	6.5 13/2(+46%)	(4) Stormy Denise 13/2, Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1 and blinkered for 1st time, twelfth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) 18 days ago, labouring around 3f out and dropping away. Marked step up in trip needs to have positive effect here with blinkers again the headgear of choice. Well down the field over 1m in first two handicaps; bred to be suited by today's trip.
12th	9 12th (9) (66/1 -100%) Seaborough	66 66/1(-100%)	(9) Seaborough 66/1, Unreliable type. One win from 32 Flat runs. Below form seventh of 12 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f, good, 25/1) 90 days ago. Poor on last Flat run. Better known as a hurdler now; well beaten off basement mark on latest Flat start.

LTO Selection:

16:20 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

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

SEXY REXY was only narrowly denied when third in a similar race over C&D last time and she merits the utmost respect off the same mark here. The unexposed Velvet Vulcan has to be of interest following his fourth over 1m2f at Chelmsford a few weeks ago, while Duchess and Jenny Ren are others to consider in an open event.

A trappy opener with the vote in favour of BEAR CLAWS. A winner at Limerick in June, he lines up for his new yard having not been seen to anything like best effect at Tramore 24 days ago and he's capable of playing a lead role from this sort of mark. Sexy Rexy, following his latest C&D third, Jenny Ren and Velvet Vulcan head up the dangers.

Preference is for JENNY REN, who is probably reliant on others setting a decent pace but recorded her last three wins over this C&D.

16:55 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 12f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (5/2 +69%) Pysanka	2.5 5/2(+69%)	(2) Pysanka 5/2, Shaped quite well when fourth at Lingfield but failed to build on it when sixth of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, good) 41 days ago. Up in trip, which promises to suit. Well worth a crack at today's trip but others appeal more than this nine-race maiden.
2	3 2nd (3) (7/1 -17%) Delvey	7 7/1(-17%)	(3) Delvey 7/1, Creditable third of 12 in handicap (20/1) at Kempton (11f) 19 days ago, nearest finish. Makes tapeta debut. 0-9 but stuck to her task pretty well when third at Kempton last month; each-way claims.
3	6 3rd (6) (17/2 -31%) Mini Mildred	8.5 17/2(-31%)	(6) Mini Mildred 17/2, Improved form when third at Bath in August but bit below form when seventh of 12 back there 5 days later. Given a short break and she's not yet exposed. Untested on AW but has claims if judged on her third of 13 at Bath in August.
4	5 4th (5) (13/2 -44%) Ghostly	6.5 13/2(-44%)	(5) Ghostly 13/2, Course winner. Latest win at Thirsk in August. 15/2, bit below form fifth of 14 in handicap at Thirsk (12f, soft) 19 days ago, though he was bumped at the start, which offers some excuse. Returned to form with two wins in August (one here); recent soft-ground defeat excusable.
5th	8 5th (8) (12/1 +25%) Carouselle	12 12/1(+25%)	(8) Carouselle 12/1, Sixth of 8 in handicap at Epsom (12f, good to firm, 40/1) 23 days ago. In good hands but hard to warm to at present. Well beaten in all three handicaps; big leap of faith required to support her.
6th	1 6th (1) (12/1 -243%) Moon Over The Sea	12 12/1(-243%)	(1) Moon Over The Sea 12/1, C&D winner. 3 wins from 9 runs this year. Creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Leicester (10f, good to firm, 14/1), nearest finish. Off 131 days. Back up in trip. Expected to be bang there. 3-9 for new stable in early part of this year; has fitness to prove after break, though.
7th	9 7th (9) (3/1 +40%) Louaizeh	3 3/1(+40%)	(9) Louaizeh 3/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 22/1, creditable third of 11 in handicap at this course (9.5f) 54 days ago, faring best of those held up. Up in trip and every chance she has a bigger performance in her. Stayed on for third here (9.4f) on handicap debut in August; upped in trip again today.
8th	4 8th (4) (22/1 +21%) Baileys Warrior	22 22/1(+21%)	(4) Baileys Warrior 22/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 28/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at this C&D. Off 11 months. Tough to assess at present. Absent since down-the-field finish here last November and current ability hard to gauge.
9th	10 9th (10) (28/1 -27%) Queenmambo	28 28/1(-27%)	(10) Queenmambo 28/1, 50/1, sixth of 7 in handicap at Ripon (12f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Has claims if judged on spring form but returned from break with two disappointing runs.
10th	7 10th (7) (66/1 -65%) Ballet Blanc	66 66/1(-65%)	(7) Ballet Blanc 66/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 40/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at this course (9.5f) 12 days ago. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Risky proposition at present. Went close in 7f turf classified in June but recent form is very uninspiring.
11th	11 11th (11) (25/1 -14%) Balmy Breese	25 25/1(-14%)	(11) Balmy Breese 25/1, 100/1 and blinkered for first time, sixth of 12 in handicap at this course (9.5f) 12 days ago. Up in trip. Put in pretty good front-running shift in first-time blinkers here recently; a possible.

LTO Selection:

16:55 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

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

LOUAIZEH put in a career-best effort when third on her handicap bow over an extended 1m1f here in August and this step up in trip can help the three-year-old to get off the mark. Moon Over The Sea is only 4lb higher than when winning at Bath in April and he has to be of interest on his return to action. Delvey edges out Ghostly and Mini Mildred to be best of the rest.

This represents a slight drop in class for MOON OVER THE SEA and as a previous C&D winner, he has a lot going for him. Pysanka looks ready for this trip and he's feared, with Louaizeh a potential improver.

One with some potential is LOUAIZEH, who was doing her best work in the closing stages when third over 9.4f here on her handicap debut.

17:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 9f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (6/1 -80%) Kaaress	6 6/1(-80%)	(1) Kaaress 6/1, 2 wins from 6 runs this year. 9/2, career best when winning 7-runner nursery at this C&D 28 days ago, just holding on. Has good chance on form. Improving filly who won two nurseries here last month (awarded latter race); big player.
2	10 2nd (10) (6/1 +45%) Go Your Own Way	6 6/1(+45%)	(10) Go Your Own Way 6/1, Winner at Bath in September. 18/1, sixth of 7 in nursery at this course (9.5f) 14 days ago, slowly away. Came god with clearcut turf win two starts ago; needs to kick on again here.
3	11 3rd (11) (18/1 -80%) Supreme Tenacity	18 18/1(-80%)	(11) Supreme Tenacity 18/1, 33/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, second of 8 in nursery at Redcar (8f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Looks competitive on form. Good second behind favourably treated rival on recent nursery debut; same mark here.
4	3 4th (3) (7/2 +50%) Made In China	3.5 7/2(+50%)	(3) Made In China 7/2, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 9 in minor event at Ayr (8f, good to soft, 66/1) 16 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Seemed to make steady progress in his qualifying runs; makes AW/nursery debut today.
5th	2 5th (2) (7/1 -40%) Dark Before Dawn	7 7/1(-40%)	(2) Dark Before Dawn 7/1, Good fourth of 9 in nursery (8/1) at Catterick (7f, soft) 14 days ago. Up in trip. Just a respectable fourth on nursery debut (7f, soft) but might fare better over this C&D.
6th	9 6th (9) (9/2 +47%) Unleash Hell	4.5 9/2(+47%)	(9) Unleash Hell 9/2, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, good third of 8 in nursery at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm, 3/1) 33 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Respected. Placed on turf last month and has possibilities if this switch to AW suits.
7th	7 7th (7) (10/1 +0%) Compton Bay	10 10/1(+0%)	(7) Compton Bay 10/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Third of 7 in maiden at Brighton (7f, good to soft, 18/1) 26 days ago. Up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Third in 7f Brighton maiden last month; upped in trip for AW/nursery debut.
8th	4 8th (4) (16/1 -60%) On Borrowed Time	16 16/1(-60%)	(4) On Borrowed Time 16/1, Latest win at Beverley in July. Fourth of 7 in nursery at Musselburgh (8f, good to soft, 15/2) 21 days ago. More exposed than some of these but probably won't be far away.
9th	5 9th (5) (11/1 -83%) Salsa Dancer	11 11/1(-83%)	(5) Salsa Dancer 11/1, Blinkered for 1st time, 5¼ lengths fourth of 7 to Kaaress in nursery (13/2) at this C&D 28 days ago, badly hampered. Not taken lightly. Might have gone close over C&D last month had he not been squeezed out and hampered.
10th	8 10th (8) (25/1 -25%) Bramble Jelly	25 25/1(-25%)	(8) Bramble Jelly 25/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in maiden (125/1) at Sandown (7f, good to soft) 35 days ago. Up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Soundly beaten in three good 7f turf maidens during the summer; will find this easier.
11th	6 11th (6) (22/1 -38%) Royal Expert	22 22/1(-38%)	(6) Royal Expert 22/1, 9/2, last of 5 in maiden at Brighton (6f, good) 33 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Significantly up in trip. Makes tapeta debut. Makes handicap debut. Close third on debut in June (6f) but not in same form since; up in trip for nursery debut.

LTO Selection:

17:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 9f Race Class Flow

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

KAARESS arrives here on the back of two victories at this venue last month and a 2lb rise for the most recent of those wins may not be enough to stop her from making it a hat-trick. Compton Bay has to be of interest on his nursery bow having shown some promise at Brighton last time, while Supreme Tenacity and Unleash Hell are others to consider.

KAARESS clearly goes well on tapeta and can make it 3 from 3 here after another small rise. Supreme Tenacity made much more of an impact on his nursery bow when second at Redcar and rates the main threat ahead of Unleash Hell.

After some intervention by the stewards four weeks ago, KAARESS (nap) is bidding to complete a hat-trick of nursery wins at this track.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	6 1st (6) (7/4 +7%) Secret Bid	1.75 7/4(+7%)	(6) Secret Bid 7/4, Stepped up on debut run when second of 13 in maiden at Chepstow (7.1f, good, 5/4) 40 days ago. That is just about the best form on offer. Went close in both his runs in August and he's respected back on AW: been gelded.
2	3 2nd (3) (10/3 -33%) Dr Foster	3.333333 10/3(-33%)	(3) Dr Foster 10/3, Thrice-raced colt. Third of 7 in maiden at Catterick (6f, soft, 5/6) 14 days ago. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces on first time and he's a key form player. Sets the standard on his Newmarket second and he could kick on again back up in trip.
3	9 3rd (9) (7/2 +0%) Too Much Trevor	3.5 7/2(+0%)	(9) Too Much Trevor 7/2, Runner-up both starts, improving in form terms second of 9 in maiden at Windsor (6f, good to firm). Off 138 days and he doesn't look totally straightforward. Second in two sprints in the spring, including a close call last time; respected on return.
4	11 4th (11) (50/1 -52%) Lincoln's Inn	50 50/1(-52%)	(11) Lincoln's Inn 50/1, Twice-raced filly. 150/1, fifth of 11 in novice event at Newcastle (6f) 18 days ago, not knocked about. Some ability at Newcastle (6f) last month but she needs another major step forward here.
5th	7 5th (7) (33/1 +0%) Serengeti Sunrise	33 33/1(+0%)	(7) Serengeti Sunrise 33/1, Foaled March 30. €9,500 foal, €10,000 yearling, Dandy Man gelding. Brother to 5f winner Ventura Flame and half-brother to 3 winners, including 2-y-o 7f winner Thebestisyettobe and 9.5f/1¼m winner Midgetonamission. Related to several winners and yard is 19% with 2yos this year; needs watching in market.
6th	12 6th (12) (15/2 +25%) My Clementine	7.5 15/2(+25%)	(12) My Clementine 15/2, Twice-raced filly. 2/1, second of 6 in maiden at Musselburgh (7.2f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Held in two small-field events last month and needs improvement on this switch to AW.
7th	2 7th (2) (66/1 -32%) Call Henry	66 66/1(-32%)	(2) Call Henry 66/1, Foaled February 23. 11,000 gns yearling, Territories colt. Dam, 7f winner, half-sister to useful winner up to 1½m Elronaq out of smart 6f winner Cartimandua. 11,000gns yearling; has fair standard to aim at on debut and is best watched.
8th	4 8th (4) (25/1 +24%) New York Bob	25 25/1(+24%)	(4) New York Bob 25/1, Foaled April 24. 5,500 gns foal, 2,500 gns yearling, Eqtidaar colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 2-y-o 6.5f/7f winner Aqlaam Vision and winner up to 6f Essaka. This looks a tough enough starting point and yard is 1-13 with 2yos this season.
9th	8 9th (8) (8/1 +27%) Terratino Fire	8 8/1(+27%)	(8) Terratino Fire 8/1, Eighth of 12 in maiden (11/2) at Chester (7f, soft) 22 days ago, slowly away. Never involved in two runs at Chester and he needs a transformation on this switch to AW.
10th	10 10th (10) (150/1 -50%) Lily's Secret	150 150/1(-50%)	(10) Lily's Secret 150/1, Sixth of 7 in maiden (100/1) at Bath (5.7f, firm) on debut 31 days ago. Up in trip. 100-1 for Bath maiden (5.7f) on debut last month and she finished a remote sixth of seven.
11th	1 11th (1) (80/1 -60%) Alextrician	80 80/1(-60%)	(1) Alextrician 80/1, Foaled March 12. €10,000 yearling, Taj Mahal gelding. Half-brother to numerous winners, including useful winner up to 1¼m The Turning Point and 11f/1½m winner Etoile Bere. Dam won in Chile. Yard 1-26 with 2yos in recent years and he's probably a longer-term prospect.

LTO Selection:

18:00 Wolverhampton Maiden (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Serengeti Sunrise is an interesting newcomer and any market support for George Scott's gelding on debut should be noted. However, the step up to 7f can help DR FOSTER, who has gone close the last twice, and, with the addition of cheekpieces to aid his cause this evening, he can get off the mark at the fourth attempt. Secret Bid and Too Much Trevor won't be far away.

DR FOSTER finished ahead of a couple of next-time-out winners at Newmarket, and while he was a shade disappointing at Catterick latest, he's fancied to bounce back up in trip. Secret Bid is the obvious threat, with Too Much Trevor another to consider.

Mick Appleby's DR FOSTER sets the standard and he gets the vote ahead of Secret Bid and the returning Too Much Trevor.

18:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 5f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (4/1 +0%) Salvuccio	4 4/1(+0%)	(5) Salvuccio 4/1, Dutch Art colt who showed definite signs of promise on first 2 starts in novice company. Not at best on qualifying run when fourth at Redcar (5f) 18 days ago but no surprise to see a better showing now handicapping with cheekpieces enlisted. Has shown promise on turf and worth considering on nursery/AW debut; cheekpieces on.
2	8 2nd (8) (15/2 +25%) Mariamne	7.5 15/2(+25%)	(8) Mariamne 15/2, C&D winner. Respectable fifth of 11 in nursery at Leicester (6f, good, 10/1) 12 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and return to the minimum trip may help here. C&D winner in May and return to 5f may suit, but others look stronger; cheekpieces on.
3	4 3rd (4) (10/1 +0%) Miss Mach One	10 10/1(+0%)	(4) Miss Mach One 10/1, Lightly-raced winner who was out of her depth when 13¼ lengths last of 12 to Juniper Berries in Group 3 Dick Poole Fillies' Stakes at Salisbury (6f) 30 days ago. Needs to pull out a bit more on nursery bow. Out of her depth in a Group 3 last time, but a bit more needed on nursery debut.
4	7 4th (7) (25/1 -150%) Rogue Rosie	25 25/1(-150%)	(7) Rogue Rosie 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Third of 5 in minor event (13/2) at this C&D 35 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Needs to raise game. In the frame in all five starts, but doesn't appear to be progressing; more needed.
5th	3 5th (3) (3/1 +14%) Specific Times	3 3/1(+14%)	(3) Specific Times 3/1, Showed improved form to make a winning nursery debut at York (6f) in July. Likely in better heart than form figures suggest following a hike in weights both outings since and no surprise to see her competitive down markedly in grade. Not short of speed so the return to this trip shouldn't be an issue; worth a second look.
6th	1 6th (1) (10/3 +5%) Bazball	3.333333 10/3(+5%)	(1) Bazball 10/3, C&D winner. 3 wins from 9 runs this year. Career best when winning 7-runner nursery at Chester (5.1f, soft, 12/1) 21 days ago, driven out. Merits consideration. Record in nurseries 21211 and has won over C&D; major chance in hat-trick bid.
7th	2 7th (2) (33/1 +0%) Sir Bolton	33 33/1(+0%)	(2) Sir Bolton 33/1, Second past the post on his 5f Yarmouth debut in April but was carried left and correctly awarded the race. However, down the field all 3 starts subsequently, gelded prior to trailing in last of 9 on nursery debut at Doncaster (6f) 3 weeks ago. Plenty to prove at present. Well beaten in three starts since awarded the race on debut; enough to prove.
8th	9 8th (9) (33/1 -65%) Si Si Senor	33 33/1(-65%)	(9) Si Si Senor 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Tongue strap on for 1st time, twelfth of 13 in minor event (40/1) at Redcar (5f, good) 18 days ago. Makes handicap debut and the betting may prove a useful guide. Not built on a promising debut; more needed now switched to a nursery.
9th	6 9th (6) (5/1 +17%) Fifty Grand Slater	5 5/1(+17%)	(6) Fifty Grand Slater 5/1, Fair colt who matched previous best when creditable third of 12 in maiden at Nottingham (5f) 11 days ago, no extra only in final 100 yds. Expected to give another good account returned to nurseries. Just over a length behind Bazball here in August and 7lb better off, but isn't progressing.

LTO Selection:

18:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

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

The hat-trick seeking Bazball has a low draw and is in such good form that she seems sure to run another cracker. Slight preference, though, is for SALVUCCIO, who has shaped with loads of promise on his three starts to date and a combination of first-time cheekpieces and making his nursery debut can see him get off the mark this evening. Mariamne looks best of the rest.

Having opened her account on nursery debut at York, SPECIFIC TIMES has faced with some stern assignments on turf since and, with her yard boasting a particularly appealing record on AW with its juveniles this year, she could just be worth chancing from a handy draw/eased markedly in class. Bazball is compiling a good record in handicaps, and along with Salvuccio, heads up the dangers.

The bang-in-form BAZBALL looks the one to beat with her record in nurseries 21211. This is an easier race than at Chester last time.

1	5 1st (5) (9/1 +0%) Regal Envoy	9 9/1(+0%)	(5) Regal Envoy 9/1, Latest win at Bath in September. Creditable third of 16 in handicap back at that venue (5.7f, good, 25/1) 21 days ago. Ran well on sole previous visit here and not underestimated despite wide draw. In good form at Bath lately; has run well over C&D but drawn wide.
2	1 2nd (1) (11/10 +63%) How Impressive	1.1 11/10(+63%)	(1) How Impressive 11/10, 4/1, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good to soft) 17 days ago, looked well served by the drop back to sprinting then and he could yet have a little more to offer at this trip. One to consider from handy draw. Made all at Yarmouth last time; has won on Tapets and respected from 2lb higher.
3	6 3rd (6) (11/1 +45%) Belle Fourche	11 11/1(+45%)	(6) Belle Fourche 11/1, C&D winner. 18/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago, merely plugging on. First-time visor needs to have positive effect now. C&D winner who ran well on her reappearance here in July, but hasn't built on it; visor on.
4	7 4th (7) (7/1 -8%) Fifty Year Storm	7 7/1(-8%)	(7) Fifty Year Storm 7/1, Lightly-raced winner. Respectable second of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 13/2) 35 days ago, finding only a much-improved sort too good. Less exposed than most and another who should go well again. Polytrack winner who remains unexposed after just five starts; one for the shortlist.
5th	8 5th (8) (9/1 +18%) El Hombre	9 9/1(+18%)	(8) El Hombre 9/1, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win at Lingfield in March. 22/1, respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago, effort when not clear run entering straight and never nearer. May be sharper with that under his belt and handy draw to operate from here. Three-time C&D winner who may have needed his recent return; capable of playing a part.
6th	11 6th (11) (14/1 -27%) The Princes Poet	14 14/1(-27%)	(11) The Princes Poet 14/1, Latest win at Brighton (6f) in May. Dispelled lesser effort when third of 4 in handicap back at that venue (5.3f) 33 days ago, despite looking unsuited by drop in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Looks competitive on form. Down another 2lb and this Polytrack winner could figure if as effective back on Tapeta.
7th	3 7th (3) (22/1 -120%) Some Nightmare	22 22/1(-120%)	(3) Some Nightmare 22/1, C&D winner. 15/2, fourth of 6 in handicap at Goodwood (5f, good to firm) 32 days ago, effort 2f out and no extra final 100 yds. Now operating 1 lb below last winning mark and he remains fairly lightly raced on AW. C&D winner, but not seen here since March 2022; 1lb below last winning mark; interesting.
8th	9 8th (9) (12/1 -100%) Mokaatil	12 12/1(-100%)	(9) Mokaatil 12/1, Has been operating some way below his best this year but showed plenty of zest in a change of headgear when fifth of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (6f) 11 days ago. Lurking on a very appealing mark if building on that but draw could have been kinder. 1-16 on the AW and opposable from the outside stall.
9th	4 9th (4) (14/1 -40%) Kessaar Power	14 14/1(-40%)	(4) Kessaar Power 14/1, First run since leaving Kevin Philippart De Foy when creditable fourth of 12 in handicap (12/1) at Chester (6.1f, soft) 22 days ago. Mark is probably about right on balance. Fourth on debut for this yard at Chester last month; each-way claims if building on that.
10th	2 10th (2) (20/1 -122%) Mellys Flyer	20 20/1(-122%)	(2) Mellys Flyer 20/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in April. Not disgraced on the back of a 10-week break when fourth of 5 in handicap (15/2) at Epsom (6f, good to firm) 50 days ago. Starts out for new yard now. 1lb lower than when winning over C&D in April, but modest since; stable debut.
11th	10 11th (10) (40/1 +0%) Beauzon	40 40/1(+0%)	(10) Beauzon 40/1, C&D winner. First run since leaving David O'Meara when last of 12 in handicap at this course (7.2f, 33/1) 12 days ago. That was his first start for 7 months but he remains 2 lb above last winning mark. C&D winner, but well beaten on recent stable debut; enough to prove for now.

LTO Selection:

19:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

BELLE FOURCHE has been edging down the weights and having shaped better than the bare result suggested when trapped wide last time, he can strike in a first-time visor if things drop kindly. How Impressive is in great form and is the obvious danger after scoring over this trip at Yarmouth last month off a 2lb lower mark, while Fifty Year Storm could be hard to keep out of the frame.

HOW IMPRESSIVE looked well served by the drop back to sprinting when opening his account on turf at Yarmouth 17 days ago and, from a handy draw, he could be worth siding with to follow up with his rider's claim off-setting his rise in the weights. Fifty Year Storm is less exposed than most and arrives in form, so she's feared, along with The Princes Poet. Mokaatil is another to monitor lurking on a very handy mark.

The choice is SOME NIGHTMARE who has dropped 1lb below his last winning mark and who showed some good form around here a while back.

19:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 3) 6f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	10 1st (10) (9/2 +47%) Change Sings	4.5 9/2(+47%)	(10) Change Sings 9/2, 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Kempton (6f, 2/1) 29 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and remains unexposed at the trip. 2-2 in AW handicaps, but up 4lb in a better race and not sure he can dominate these rivals.
2	8 2nd (8) (11/2 -57%) Minnetonka	5.5 11/2(-57%)	(8) Minnetonka 11/2, C&D winner in September and looked unlucky not to win when second of 10 in handicap (15/2) at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) 9 days ago, left with too much to do. Remains of firm interest. C&D winner who looked unlucky at Newmarket nine days ago; one to be interested in.
3	6 3rd (6) (20/1 +20%) Song For Whoever	20 20/1(+20%)	(6) Song For Whoever 20/1, First run since leaving John S. O'Donoghue when eighth of 11 in handicap (18/1) at Chester (7f, soft) 22 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Return to the AW may help, but others look more solid; cheekpieces on.
4	5 4th (5) (4/1 +20%) Batal Dubai	4 4/1(+20%)	(5) Batal Dubai 4/1, Latest win at Newcastle in July. 7/2, respectable third of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 23 days ago, left poorly placed. A strong gallop looks on the cards and that will suit. Dual Tapeta winner; one for the shortlist if getting the breaks from the inside stall.
5th	7 5th (7) (6/1 +40%) Zero Carbon	6 6/1(+40%)	(7) Zero Carbon 6/1, Course winner. Five wins from 16 Flat runs. Creditable second of 8 in handicap (10/3) at Kempton (7f) 31 days ago, clear of rest. Cheekpieces back on. Needs considering. Record on the AW reads 3112112 and second in this last year; should run another big race.
6th	4 6th (4) (13/2 -8%) Bosh	6.5 13/2(-8%)	(4) Bosh 13/2, 25/1, proved he retains most of his ability when seventh of 13 in handicap at this course (6.1f) 30 days ago, nearest finish. Caught the eye over C&D last time and one to consider if enjoying a kinder passage.
7th	1 7th (1) (4/1 +27%) First Folio	4 4/1(+27%)	(1) First Folio 4/1, Failed to build on the promise of last run when third of 6 in handicap (5/2) at Yarmouth (6f, soft) 16 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Eased a further 1 lb. 5lb below his last winning mark, but this still looks a tough ask.
8th	9 8th (9) (12/1 -50%) Sporting Hero	12 12/1(-50%)	(9) Sporting Hero 12/1, Good third of 14 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 8/1) 24 days ago. Back up in trip and remains unexposed on all-weather. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. AW record reads 113, but still to prove he stays this far and drawn widest; cheekpieces on.
9th	2 9th (2) (50/1 -150%) Tabdeed	50 50/1(-150%)	(2) Tabdeed 50/1, Twenty runs since last win in 2020. 11/1, last of 6 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, soft) 16 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Losing run up to 19 despite plummeting down the weights; best watched for now.
10th	3 10th (3) (28/1 -40%) Princess Shabnam	28 28/1(-40%)	(3) Princess Shabnam 28/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, fourth of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 9/1) 23 days ago, having run of things. Not very consistent since winning a Listed race at Pontefract in August last year.

LTO Selection:

19:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 3) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

MINNETONKA was slightly unfortunate to finish second (dead-heated) in a warm class 2 at Newmarket, having been continually denied a clear run from the two-furlong marker. The daughter of Kingman, a C&D winner last month, is fancied to bounce back now down in class. Change Sings won with more in hand than the winning margin would suggest at Kempton last time and he merits respect from a 4lb raised mark. Zero Carbon can chase the pair home.

MINNETONKA looked a shade unlucky not to win at Newmarket last week having been left with too much to do, so she's taken to gain compensation. Change Sings, Sporting Hero and Batal Dubai are a trio of potential threats in an interesting event.

This can go to MINNETONKA who won over C&D last month and who looked unlucky not to record another success at Newmarket nine days ago.

20:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 10f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (15/8 +37%) Lunar Space	1.875 15/8(+37%)	(2) Lunar Space 15/8, Twenty one runs since last win in 2021 but bounced back to form from a tumbling mark when third of 13 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 7 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Not taken lightly. Good third off a tumbling mark at Chelmsford and is a big player if he can back that up.
2	4 2nd (4) (5/1 -43%) Casa Luna	5 5/1(-43%)	(4) Casa Luna 5/1, Creditable third of 11 in handicap at this C&D (4/1) 12 days ago. Respected off same mark. 0-13 but she's well treated on her best form and was a close third over C&D last time.
3	12 3rd (12) (15/2 +6%) Zakram	7.5 15/2(+6%)	(12) Zakram 15/2, One win from 22 Flat runs. Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. Good fourth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (7/1) 12 days ago. Creditable fourth over C&D latest but he's not easy to predict and has a record of 1-22.
4	10 4th (10) (50/1 -52%) Sao Timothy	50 50/1(-52%)	(10) Sao Timothy 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Ninth of 11 in handicap (33/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW). Off 123 days. Significantly up in trip. Hood on for 1st time. Hood is added at this new trip and he needs a transformation on his return.
5th	11 5th (11) (5/2 +17%) Caramay	2.5 5/2(+17%)	(11) Caramay 5/2, 10/1, produced best effort to date when second of 12 in handicap at this C&D 12 days ago, conceding first run. Big chance from only 2 lb higher. 0-7 but she finished well to go very close over C&D 12 days ago; big player.
6th	3 6th (3) (25/1 -127%) Calleveryoneuknow	25 25/1(-127%)	(3) Calleveryoneuknow 25/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 13 in handicap (9/2) at Kempton (8f) 45 days ago, slowly away. Enough to prove on tapeta debut. Nine-race maiden who was tailed off at Kempton last time and others are more convincing.
7th	5 7th (5) (9/1 +18%) Rumnotred	9 9/1(+18%)	(5) Rumnotred 9/1, 20/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable fifth of 12 in handicap at this C&D 12 days ago, nearest finish. Enters calculations. 0-15 but he's on a much reduced mark and was an eyecatcher over C&D last time; dangerous.
8th	7 8th (7) (14/1 +36%) Six Strings	14 14/1(+36%)	(7) Six Strings 14/1, Course winner who ran a typical race when fourth of 10 in handicap at this course (8.6f, 11/1) 4 days ago, never nearer. Won here in January but he's not threatened in last seven runs and needs to raise his game.
9th	6 9th (6) (80/1 -60%) Rhyme Scheme	80 80/1(-60%)	(6) Rhyme Scheme 80/1, 150/1, sixth of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (12f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Down in trip. Has struggled under both codes for current yard and losing run is now up to 15; opposable.
10th	9 10th (9) (40/1 -21%) Buachaill	40 40/1(-21%)	(9) Buachaill 40/1, Unreliable sort who ran poorly after 5 months off at this course (8.6f, 66/1) 12 days ago. Others more persuasive. Course winner in March but he's lost his way and needs a major revival.
11th	1 11th (1) (14/1 -100%) Typical Man	14 14/1(-100%)	(1) Typical Man 14/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021 and failed to justify support when only seventh of 8 in handicap (11/2) at Ffos Las (10f, heavy) 36 days ago, slowly away. Interesting to see if his backers return. Sole win was in May 2021 and he's struggled in his last two runs; others preferred.

LTO Selection:

20:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Caramay was narrowly denied over course and distance 12 days ago and the unexposed daughter of Lethal Force looks set to play a leading role off 2lb higher today. However, a chance can be taken on CASA LUNA. Philip Kirby's charge has plummeted down the handicap in recent starts and she did well to be beaten just three-quarters of a length in third here last time, having raced wide throughout. Christian Howarth's 5lb claim could make all the difference and she gets the nod. Market support for Sao Timothy should be noted.

CARAMAY produced her best effort to date when runner-up over C&D 12 days ago and a reproduction of that form could be good enough to see her collect. Rumnotred and Casa Luna head the dangers.

Top of the list is 3yo CARAMAY, who finished well to go very close in a C&D handicap 12 days ago and is open to further progress.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (11/2 +8%) Chifa	5.5 11/2(+8%)	(1) Chifa 11/2, 4-time C&D winner. Latest win here in May. Respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (9/1) 12 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Not taken lightly. Has a fine record over C&D and did not get the run of the race from off the pace last time.
2	3 2nd (3) (7/2 +53%) Min Till	3.5 7/2(+53%)	(3) Min Till 7/2, C&D winner. 10/1, creditable eighth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 31 days ago. C&D winner; return to Wolverhampton (first time this year) needs to spark something.
3	11 3rd (11) (100/1 -100%) Reversion	100 100/1(-100%)	(11) Reversion 100/1, One win from 28 Flat runs. Twenty five runs since last win in 2021. Seventh of 12 in handicap (33/1) at Bath (5.7f, good) 21 days ago. Back up in trip. Very hard to make a case for. Sole win (28 races) was a maiden in 2021; has not shown enough this July-September.
4	5 4th (5) (13/2 +28%) Inverinate	6.5 13/2(+28%)	(5) Inverinate 13/2, Eighth of 10 in handicap (7/1) at Leicester (10f, soft) 25 days ago, finding test too much. Back down in trip. Sole win (13 races) came at 7f on Chelmsford AW in July; has mostly run respectably since.
5th	4 5th (4) (33/1 -136%) Spring Day	33 33/1(-136%)	(4) Spring Day 33/1, 40/1, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago, left poorly placed. Edging down the weights and interesting if the betting speaks in her favour.
6th	9 6th (9) (2/1 +11%) Connected	2 2/1(+11%)	(9) Connected 2/1, Blinkered for 1st time, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at this C&D (11/2) 36 days ago, well on top finish. Expected to be bang there. Up 5lb but more to give after winning comfortably over C&D in blinkers on handicap debut.
7th	2 7th (2) (5/1 -11%) Original Thinker	5 5/1(-11%)	(2) Original Thinker 5/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable third of 11 in handicap at this C&D (12/1) 14 days ago, well positioned. Can give a good account. Still a maiden after ten starts but she was a close third of 11 over C&D on latest start.
8th	10 8th (10) (28/1 -155%) Bishop's Glory	28 28/1(-155%)	(10) Bishop's Glory 28/1, First run since leaving Archie Watson when good second of 11 in handicap at this C&D (22/1) 54 days ago, well positioned. Made a good start for new yard when head second of 11 over C&D in August.
9th	8 9th (8) (12/1 -9%) Mostallim	12 12/1(-9%)	(8) Mostallim 12/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Chelmsford City in July. Bit below form third of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 6/4) 23 days ago. Chelmsford win in July stands out this term but he has place claims on other 2023 evidence.
10th	7 10th (7) (28/1 -56%) Iconic Knight	28 28/1(-56%)	(7) Iconic Knight 28/1, Course winner. Fifth of 7 in handicap at Brighton (7f, heavy, 3/1) 19 days ago, slowly away. Others more persuasive. Down the weights but has not fired often enough this term to inspire great confidence.

LTO Selection:

20:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Chifa boasts a 50-percent strike-rate at this venue (4-8) and he must be respected with that in mind, but marginal preference is for MIN TILL. He was successful over track and trip from 3lb higher in November last year, and his latest Southwell performance would suggest he is gradually coming back to form. Connected and Original Thinker are others to consider.

CONNECTED showed much improved form to get off the mark in cosy fashion on handicap bow over C&D 5 weeks ago and looks capable of defying a 5 lb rise. Chifa shaped better than the bare result here 12 days ago so is feared as he bids for a fifth C&D win, with Original Thinker another to consider.

It looks highly competitive among the rest but CONNECTED could soon prove a good deal better than his current mark.

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.
