UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

An open contest sees a chance taken on EL HOMBRE, who has been dropped 1lb in the ratings for his latest fifth over 6f at Lingfield. He was beaten just two lengths on that occasion and can exploit this mark. Kit Gabriel is feared most after a decent fourth over C&D last time and he can go closer should he get away on terms, while Imperial Dream also deserves respect.
Prediction : 1st El Hombre 2nd Kit Gabriel 3rd Imperial Dream

COTAI VISION is clear of these on ratings and this appears to be a very good opportunity to get her head in front. Ed Walker's filly has struggled to land a blow in handicap company of late but she can make her presence felt in these calmer waters. Naturalia ranks as best of the rest and she can pick up the pieces should the selection not fire after a promising fourth over 7f at Kempton last time, while Peace Wall can also get involved.
Prediction : 1st Cotai Vision 2nd Naturalia 3rd Peace Wall

SEAX made a very pleasing start to his career when second over 6f at Ascot and he appears likely to improve sufficiently to go one better. George Scott's colt was beaten just a length on that occasion and he shaped as if this step up in trip would be a big positive. Cheshire Dancer should also be thereabouts after shedding her maiden tag in game fashion over the extended 7f at Beverley last time, while Alwedad is another to consider with her debut experience under her belt.
Prediction : 1st Seax 2nd Cheshire Dancer 3rd Alwedad

Narrowly denied over C&D on her penultimate start and a respectable third over further at Kempton since, SAIL ON SILVERBIRD looks the one to be with and she can get off the mark at the seventh time of asking. Going up in trip could bring about improvement from Song Of Success, while Puntarelle should be able to build on a solid placed effort over C&D earlier in the month.
Prediction : 1st Sail On Silverbird 2nd Song Of Success 3rd Puntarelle

SAHARA KITTEN had Marefuori (third) over two lengths behind when a creditable runner-up at Kempton last time out, and he can uphold that form despite a 3lb swing at the weights in favour of the latter. The step up in trip is another plus for James Tate's colt, and the same can be said for Southwell winner Mai Dubai, a son of Frankel making his nursery debut.
Prediction : 1st Sahara Kitten 2nd Marefuori 3rd Mai Dubai

KENTUCKY KINGDOM pulled clear over 1m2f at Lingfield under Joe Leavy last month, having travelled strongly into contention, and he could yet defy a subsequent 8lb hike now sent back over further. Hashtagmetoo was successful off this mark over track and trip in March. She ought to be thereabouts having finished a half-length second at Bath last time, while Byzantine Empire is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Kentucky Kingdom 2nd Hashtagmetoo 3rd Byzantine Empire

Bankrupt has been in decent form of late and, though respected, a wide draw could scupper his chances. That isn't the case for WHITE UMBRELLA, however, who was almost able to exploit a sliding handicap mark when filling the runner-up spot over 7f here three weeks ago. Christopher Kellett's charge gets the nod off an unchanged mark, while Flagman heads the remainder.
Prediction : 1st White Umbrella 2nd Bankrupt 3rd Flagman
