UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

Clement didn't enjoy the best of runs when second over 7f at Chelmsford last week and could go well off an unchanged mark, though over this longer trip, preference is for PERCEIVED, who returned to winning ways over 1m2f at Newcastle when last sighted and is expected to remain competitive now turned out under a 4lb penalty. Coachella is rated only 3lb higher than when striking at Chelmsford in October and is worth a market check on his return from a 181-day absence.
Prediction : 1st Perceived 2nd Clement 3rd Coachella

Ballard Down has struggled in handicap company this year but could feasibly take closer order now eased into claiming grade. However, with the benefit of C&D-winning form in the book, UNFORGIVING MINUTE shades the vote. John Butler's eight-year-old was third off a sedate pace in a handicap at Chelmsford last time and could fare better if the tempo is stronger tonight. He holds Loyalty (third) on his win in a Lingfield claimer in March.
Prediction : 1st Unforgiving Minute 2nd Ballard Down 3rd Loyalty

KATHEEFA was an impressive winner over 6f at Southwell last week and a 5lb penalty may not be enough to stop this previous course winner from taking this contest as well. Cappananty Con won over C&D two starts ago and he has to be respected this evening, while Big Time Maybe and A Sure Welcome are others who could go well.
Prediction : 1st Katheefa 2nd Cappananty Con 3rd Big Time Maybe

BADENSCOTH arrives here on the back of two impressive victories over C&D in recent months and he can rack up the hat-trick this evening, despite a further 6lb rise in the ratings. Livvys Dream failed to fire on her final start last year but her previous form gives her a shout today. Others to consider are Paco's Prince and Redgrave.
Prediction : 1st Badenscoth 2nd Livvys Dream 3rd Redgrave

Spiritual Boy is nicely bred and shaped well for a long way on his seasonal/handicap debut at Redcar when fourth last month, while Chance Of Glory remains open to plenty of improvement after just three outings and should appreciate this return to Tapeta. Preference, though, is for ROBEAM. Richard Fahey's charge is a 10-race maiden, but he put in a career best when second over this C&D 10 days ago and looks to have a race in him off this lowly mark.
Prediction : 1st Robeam 2nd Spiritual Boy 3rd Chance Of Glory

TEMPUS will have entered several notebooks when second at Nottingham on debut last October and can take this before moving onto better things for Roger Charlton. A half-brother to Group 2 winner Time Test, the Kingman colt can put that experience to good use against Fabulist, who has Group 1 entries but has been beaten at short odds in both of his career starts, and Bardo Contiguo, who looks to be one of the more interesting newcomers in the field.
Prediction : 1st Tempus 2nd Fabulist 3rd Bardo Contiguo
