Having justified favouritism at Newmarket 28 days ago, Coul Angel must enter calculations in his current vein of form. However, a 5lb higher mark and rise in class does demand another career-best performance from Mick Appleby's charge and MARTY HOPKIRK may offer more value. The three-year-old should find this easier than his latest assignments at Goodwood and York, with a return to the scene of his only triumph expected to help. Last-time-out winners Papa Cocktail and Queue Dos are others to consider.

Coul Angel is a key player but ALMARADA PRINCE looked more like his old self last time and is handicapped to win now.

NORDIC GLORY landed a 0-55 contest over C&D last time with something in hand and this slight rise in class shouldn't prevent another bold showing. A 4lb rise looks manageable for the six-year-old and he's preferred to Bella Love. Although a maiden, the three-year-old has a decent shout judged on the pick of her form this season and she merits respect from a plum draw. Initial Blue and Ten Club are worth a second look too.

Last year's winner Saffredi is high on the list but the drop back in trip/grade could see TEN CLUB return to winning ways.

Although the highest rated, Dosman has failed to make an impact since racing under the tutelage of Jamie Osbourne in July and he may be worth taking on. Big Sip should appreciate reverting to Tapeta and cannot be discounted, but the returning BYSTANDER may have slightly more ability. The five-year-old posted some creditable efforts in defeat in deep handicaps throughout 2024 and may take some stopping if returning at a similar level on his stable bow.

This looks a minefield and BYSTANDER, who has strong AW form, is the most tentative of selections after 420 days off.

Sir Mark Prescott is always to be respected with his handicap debutants that are stepping up in distance and the unexposed KING'S HAND is no exception. Having cost 78,000gns as a yearling, the son of Kingman is a half-brother to a winner over this trip and he can start to fulfil his potential from a lenient opening mark. Stipulation has held his form well and is an obvious player, despite needing another personal best from his current rating. Imperial Trooper and Fihrayn are other notable contenders.

Being a solid contender whose recent form features a C&D success under Hollie Doyle, STIPULATION is preferred.

POPEYE DOYLE saw a hat-trick bid foiled over a mile at Southwell last month but created the impression that a stiffer test could now be in order. Having improved since racing with cheekpieces added, stepping in distance could be a further aid for progression and looks well worth exploring from an unchanged rating. Last-time C&D winner Flaine and the consistent Risen Again also have plenty to offer in this company, while seven-race maiden Flightofthephoenix is dangerous to underestimate.

With the cheekpieces retained, POPEYE DOYLE looks particularly solid. Flightofthephoenix is second choice.

A C&D winner on his penultimate start and respectable third after a troubled run back here last time, SNEAKY BLINDER can progress further over this trip. A current rating of 53 looks manageable and Robert Stephens's four-year-old merits another chance. Fashionelle was a place ahead of the selection when filling the runner-up slot here 12 days ago but might struggle to uphold the form on the revised terms. With that in mind, Forglen could be a bigger danger with the step back up in trip a likely source for improvement.

Off an attractive mark returned to the Flat, T OR COFFEY gets the vote. Witch Hazel is second pick.

LUCKY MAN showed good speed to score over 6f here recently so dropping back in trip may not be an issue, and he can follow up for his in-form connections off 4lb higher. Beaten a neck when attempting to land the double over C&D earlier in the month, Invincible Crown must enter calculations again, along with Level Up, who won at Chelmsford last time out.

Lucky Man has a bit more to prove at 5f and Maris Angel and INVINCIBLE CROWN make greater appeal.

Not beaten far on each of his last three starts, with two of those efforts on the all-weather, ME TARZAN looks to have been found an ideal opportunity to regain the winning thread, for all that a wide draw isn't ideal. Handicap debutant Star Of Mali makes his second start after being gelded and must be of interest, along with Simply Blue, who finished third over C&D last time out.

Simply Blue ran well over C&D two weeks ago but LOOKS FANTASTIC can build on his stable debut now dropped back in trip.

BINTALINA has been a little frustrating recently, but stepping up to 1m4f for the first time could unlock the necessary improvement and she can break her maiden. The recent form of her stable is another positive, and she may have too much for Scarlet Sunset, who bids to maintain her unbeaten (2-2) track record on the back of an absence. Is I Right and Telepathic are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

Telepathic is respected but SCARLET SUNSET (nap) has won on both her previous visits to Wolverhampton and retains potential.

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.
