UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

DARK DESIGN was doing his best work at the finish when a one-length second off this mark over 6f at Chelmsford last month and could benefit from this step back up in trip to go one better today. Dual C&D winner Kenstone has slipped to a 7lb lower mark than for the latest of those victories here 13 months ago and is very interesting on his return to this venue. Completing the shortlist is Won Love, who scored with ease here last month and was far from disgraced in his bid for a track-and-trip double 10 days ago.
Prediction : 1st Dark Design 2nd Kenstone 3rd Won Love

Na Scoitear arrives on the back of a good second off this mark over 6f at Newcastle but he may have to play second fiddle, this time to TOLLERTON FOREST, who posted a quick-fire double in classified events last month. The manner in which she made all over this trip at Kempton latest suggests a mark of 55 is very workable now switched to handicap company and there could be more to come now that the penny has dropped. Given the fine form that the Charlie Hills yard is in at present, it would be no surprise to see So Chic outrun her odds and a tumbling mark enables her to sneak in under top weight.
Prediction : 1st Tollerton Forest 2nd Na Scoitear 3rd So Chic

Following an impressive hat-trick at Lingfield in November and December, Huberts Dream's winning run came to an end when disappointing at the same venue after an 8lb hike for the latest of his victories. Stuart Williams' colt is better than that but the handicapper may have caught up with him now and preference is for CARIAD ANGEL. Karl Burke's filly won well over this C&D last month and it appeared to be the extra furlong, rather than the 4lb rise, that caught her out when a close-up third here last time. She should relish the return to the minimum trip, while Cuban Grey looks best of the rest after a near-miss off this mark at Lingfield 10 days ago.
Prediction : 1st Cariad Angel 2nd Huberts Dream 3rd Cuban Grey

Rumnotred makes his handicap debut having filled the runner-up spot on his last two outings over 7f and could have a say in proceedings up in trip, but SUPER DEN has proven consistent of late and was a game winner on his most recent outing over 1m at Lingfield. He has gone up 3lb for that success, but Levi Williams' 7lb claim makes him seem quite well treated and he is entitled to follow up in this. Abnaa can also make his presence felt.
Prediction : 1st Super Den 2nd Abnaa 3rd Rumnotred

A 6lb penalty for a facile victory on his most recent run at Newcastle last Friday looks unlikely to stop MINT EDITION securing a hat-trick on his course debut. He received a 5lb rise for his penultimate success and still bolted up last time, despite being slowly away, so it is tricky to look past him based on that evidence. The unexposed Fox Flame should not be ruled out for powerful connections, while Quizlet is another worthy of consideration.
Prediction : 1st Mint Edition 2nd Fox Flame 3rd Quizlet

GLEN BUCK made a pleasing start to his racing career when winning over 1m at Newcastle recently and, despite shouldering a 7lb penalty, he should take all the beating on this step up to an extended 1m1f. Victoria Falls ran with more encouragement on her second start in handicaps when weakening into sixth over C&D last month and is feared most, ahead of Screaming Leeagale, who is entitled to improve on her opening effort when finishing sixth at Kempton.
Prediction : 1st Glen Buck 2nd Victoria Falls 3rd Screaming Leeagale

INTERNATIONAL LAW finished well to take a close-up third over 1m3f at Southwell recently from a wide draw and, off only 1lb higher on this return to 1m4f, an eighth win on the all-weather could be on the cards. Gentle Fire's stamina appeared stretched by the 2m on her latest effort at the Nottinghamshire venue and she isn't taken lightly now reverting to a course she has won at the time before, despite being 6lb higher than for that success in early January. Order Of St John finished runner-up over C&D when last seen in this sphere and is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st International Law 2nd Gentle Fire 3rd Order Of St John
