UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

Kodebreaker and Carey Street have both held their form well of late and each command respect considering they have scored from higher marks in the past, the latter especially given he is 15lb below his last winning rating. However, even that is eclipsed by MUHALHEL, who created a favourable impression when third here a fortnight ago and, having last won off 72, looks worth chancing from a basement allotment of 46, despite being 1lb wrong.
Prediction : 1st Muhalhel 2nd Carey Street 3rd Kodebreaker

PALACE BOY blitzed a very modest field by six lengths over course and distance just after Christmas, but the manner of the performance was hard to crab and he could have more to give on just his second start for the Ralph Smith yard. Aqwaam could be the one to capitalise if the rise in class catches out the selection, while, on the revised terms, Artisan Dancer (third) is not without hope of reversing the form of the aforementioned race.
Prediction : 1st Palace Boy 2nd Aqwaam 3rd Artisan Dancer

The readjusted ratings give JOHNNY JAMES (second) a good chance of reversing last month's C&D form with Follow Your Heart (winner) and, while the margins are likely to be tight, a plumb draw in stall one could prove to be a crucial factor in the favour of the Mick Appleby-trained selection. Al Farabi and The Turpinator are also well positioned to attack from handy stalls positions and both command the respect of betting checks at the very least.
Prediction : 1st Johnny James 2nd Follow Your Heart 3rd Al Farabi

FIELDSMAN arrives in fine fettle and his runner-up effort at Southwell earlier in the month reads very well in the context of this race. The veteran is 1lb higher for that effort and now has Jack Doughty, who rode him to victory on his penultimate start, back on board claiming 7lb to aid his cause. Sea The Buckthorn finished a fair third in a classified event over 7f at Kempton on his latest outing and should go well back in the handicap ranks, while last-time-out winner Outreach is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Fieldsman 2nd Sea The Buckthorn 3rd Outreach

SOI DAO had Noble Sovereign (third) behind when she was victorious by a length here earlier in the month and the daughter of Twilight Son now has a 3lb higher rating to contend with. Considering the manner of her success that day, she could prove hard to beat in her follow-up bid. Fast Affair hit the frame over 1m2f at Lingfield last time and could feature off an unchanged mark, while Elusive Truth is worth a second look on her handicap bow.
Prediction : 1st Soi Dao 2nd Fast Affair 3rd Elusive Truth

Dynamiste arguably sets the standard of those who have raced, although she was somewhat underwhelming when only fifth on her reappearance at Southwell last month. With that in mind, it may be worth taking a chance on either of the debutants, with KALPANA shading the vote. Andrew Balding's filly, a half-sister to useful debut winner Floating Spirit, boasts a nice blend of speed and stamina in her pedigree, which may be enough to fend off fellow newcomer Hissyaan.
Prediction : 1st Kalpana 2nd Hissyaan 3rd Dynamiste

ELUSIVE TIGER found the drop into classified company to his liking when making all over a furlong extra at this venue earlier in the month. This drop in trip should prove no barrier to the four-year-old and a double could be in the offing. Pyrrhic Dancer has found his groove in recent months, as evidenced in a brace of victories over C&D, and Gary Brown's gelding isn't taken lightly. Fellow in-form rivals Gypsy Whisper and Twistaline also warrant a second look.
Prediction : 1st Elusive Tiger 2nd Pyrrhic Dancer 3rd Gypsy Whisper
