UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

The Smiling Wolf secured a comfortable success over this trip at Ffos Las last Friday and he must enter calculations under a 6lb penalty. That said, MINI MAGNA has scored on two of his last three starts and gets the vote on his Tapeta debut. Ed Dunlop's gelding has to shoulder top-weight but he could be hard to stop if transferring his recent form onto the all-weather. The unexposed Suicide Blonde is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Mini Magna 2nd The Smiling Wolf 3rd Suicide Blonde

Only narrowly denied over this trip at Newcastle last time out, RAZZAM is fancied to build on that effort off the same mark here. Frederick Larson knocks 3lb off the gelding's back and, with more progression likely, the three-year-old can get the better of Hello Me, who drops in class following a creditable second at Chelmsford most recently. Momaer has been consistent of late and is another who warrants consideration.
Prediction : 1st Razzam 2nd Hello Me 3rd Momaer

The drop in trip looks set to suit MOONSPIRIT, who lost second inside the final furlong over 1m2f at Newcastle a week ago. The unexposed daughter of Kingman retains the mark from that run and is fancied to improve, but Yeoman can give her plenty to think about following a staying-on second over a mile most recently. A first-time visor could see Supaspecialawesome build on a decent second from his latest outing and he completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Moonspirit 2nd Yeoman 3rd Supaspecialawesome

Young Fire is the only course and distance winner in the field and, as he has won five times off higher marks, the eight-year-old is hard to ignore. LIR SPECIALE is forced to carry top weight, but drops in class after disappointing twice at Ascot and returns to the all-weather having won twice at Kempton. He may be at his best on an artificial surface and could hold off the attentions of Koy Koy, who was not disgraced at Chester and has Billy Loughnane claiming 3lb here.
Prediction : 1st Lir Speciale 2nd Koy Koy 3rd Young Fire

Both Civil Law and ARCADIAN NIGHTS have good records here with eight course wins between them, and both look capable off their current marks. Preference is for the Mark Loughnane gelding who was a solid second at Chepstow last month. Upped 2lb for that, he returns to the all-weather and may go one better with a clear run. Naxos is another changing surface and, with his 2/3 record on the all-weather, he is also hard to overlook.
Prediction : 1st Arcadian Nights 2nd Naxos 3rd Civil Law

PERCY JONES has been running well of late and he got his head in front last time, scoring over C&D. Mark Loughnane's charge has been raised 2lb in the ratings for that win and, while this is a hotter heat, that could prove lenient. Belgoprince is feared most after running out a decisive winner over 1m4f at Epsom and it would be no shock were he to defy a 5lb penalty, while similar comments apply to Glenister.
Prediction : 1st Percy Jones 2nd Belgoprince 3rd Glenister

Despite running into a modest third over 6f at Newcastle last time, it is SPACE COWBOY who gets the nod to claim this prize. Richard Spencer's colt appears to be on a workable mark for his handicap debut. Lequinto has been a model of consistency of late and he should be thereabouts despite running off 4lb higher than his neck second over 6f at Windsor last time, while Tiger Crusade isn't ruled out either.
Prediction : 1st Space Cowboy 2nd Lequinto 3rd Tiger Crusade
