UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

Blitzle won a claimer at Catterick earlier in the month and she has to be respected as a result, although this is a tougher test for the daughter of Toronado. With that in mind, preference is for FORCED, who has displayed promise in novice company and she could be underrated by an opening mark of 60. Prissy Missy is another with strong form claims, while Beignet should not be underestimated.
Prediction : 1st Forced 2nd Blitzle 3rd Prissy Missy

X FORCE failed to reward favourite backers when finishing second at Chepstow last time out but this appears to be an ideal opportunity for Archie Watson's colt to get off the mark. Dana Forever displayed some promise on her debut at Nottingham and she could be a player if improving for that experience. Dorchester Dom makes most appeal from the remainder.
Prediction : 1st X Force 2nd Dana Forever 3rd Dorchester Dom

WILD EDRIC won with plenty in hand over C&D last week and he is only 4lb higher today, having been dropped in the ratings for a previous run, despite having to carry a 6lb penalty. Astrospeed disappointed on turf last time out but he was successful twice on the all-weather earlier in the year. The shortlist is completed by Baby Steps and Take Fright.
Prediction : 1st Wild Edric 2nd Astrospeed 3rd Take Fright

KODILINE bounced back to form when finishing second at Beverley a week ago and a reproduction of that effort should be good enough to win this contest. Sonnet Rose has to be on the shortlist given his good recent form at Yarmouth and he should have no problem with the switch to the all-weather. Fantastic Flyer and Ghazan are others with valid form claims.
Prediction : 1st Kodiline 2nd Sonnet Rose 3rd Fantastic Flyer

Atletico doesn't win as often as he should, but the seven-year-old tries blinkers for the first time and may also appreciate this return to the all-weather. Street Poet has been raised 9lb since the start of June after three successive victories, but his luck might have just run out and this can go to Martyn Meade's unexposed ENGROSSED. First and second in two starts at this venue, she remains totally unexposed and given that her dam was a French Listed winner, further progress looks assured.
Prediction : 1st Engrossed 2nd Street Poet 3rd Atletico

STORMBOMBER wasn't suited by soft ground when only beating one home at Newbury 40 days ago, but he previously showed promise in three maiden outings and could be fairly handicapped off 64 for Ed Walker. The three-year-old could appreciate this return to a synthetic surface, and will also appreciate a first try at this trip judging by his pedigree. Toro Dorado is 0-13 in his career so far but has shown promise the last twice, while Lonicera is another who makes some appeal.
Prediction : 1st Stormbomber 2nd Toro Dorado 3rd Lonicera

GENUINE APPROVAL hacked up over this C&D for John Butler eight days ago at odds of 40-1 and could follow up under a 5lb penalty. She had lost her way for a few months prior to that success, and could be worth following while the iron is hot. Fern Owl wears an eye-shield for the first time after an impressive second at this venue four weeks ago, while Yasir continues to defy his advancing years with plenty of consistent displays.
Prediction : 1st Genuine Approval 2nd Fern Owl 3rd Yasir
