UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

WALKING ON CLOUDS has found his stride since joining Grant Tuer's North Yorkshire yard, winning four of his five starts, and given the manner in which he won at Southwell last month, a further 5lb rise in the handicap might not be enough to stop the progressive four-year-old. Algheed and Intervention appear likely to be in the thick of things, while Ballyare has dropped back to his last winning all-weather mark and shouldn't be discounted.
Prediction : 1st Walking On Clouds 2nd Algheed 3rd Intervention

BOBBY DASSLER showed a fair level of ability when trained in Ireland, and he was far from disgraced in handicap company on his stable debut last month. The son of Awtaad sets the standard now back in a novice contest and he looks set to relish the return to sprinting having weakened late on over 7f last time out. Angel Amadea heads the remainder, and Okeanos completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Bobby Dassler 2nd Angel Amadea 3rd Okeanos

Military Two Step has been in decent form of late and although he demands respect, it is BLAZEON FIVE who edges the vote. Her winning run came to an end at Kempton last month, where she only just found one too strong, and a repeat of that effort can see her go one better in what appears to be a good opportunity to regain the winning thread. Fleurman can follow them home.
Prediction : 1st Blazeon Five 2nd Military Two Step 3rd Fleurman

JILLY COOPER improved her fine record over this C&D with another win in late January and the filly holds leading claims off just 3lb higher. Keyser Soze proved a different proposition in the first-time blinkers when last seen winning at Kempton, but he's not certain to produce the same performance with that headgear now discarded. Therefore, In-form duo Tylos and Revolutionise both enjoy it here and they may give the selection most to think about.
Prediction : 1st Jilly Cooper 2nd Tylos 3rd Revolutionise

PLUMETTE overcame a 186-day absence when getting up to win in the dying strides over C&D last month and is fancied to go in again off only 1lb higher. Smiling Sunflower recently won over an extended 1m at this venue, which was her stable debut for Mick Appleby, but a 5lb penalty and the drop to 7f may be enough to prevent her from following up. Piffle recorded two runner-up efforts in January off similar marks and makes most appeal of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Plumette 2nd Smiling Sunflower 3rd Piffle

The in-form Tennessee Dream merits plenty of respect having completed a hat-trick last time, but she faces a tougher test now and preference is for STAR OF MAYO. Andrew Balding's colt got off the mark at Lingfield a month ago and that form suggests that a rating of 73 should be workable on his handicap bow. The consistent Emperor Zen edges out Silver Nightfall to be best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Star Of Mayo 2nd Tennessee Dream 3rd Emperor Zen

A chance can be taken with SPIRITOFTHENORTH, who has made the frame in both previous starts at this venue and was successful when last seen at Ripon in August. The consistent Dinoo was not disgraced when trying this trip for the first time at Kempton recently and he could well play a leading role here. The shortlist is completed by Bit Harsh and Percy Willis.
Prediction : 1st Spiritofthenorth 2nd Dinoo 3rd Bit Harsh
