UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

Several of these have crossed swords before and there is little to choose between the likes of Inexplicable, Capallcliste and Fanzone based on recent encounters. However, it might pay to focus on TROJAN TRUTH (third), who impressed with a C&D success on his penultimate start. The selection didn't enjoy the cleanest of runs after a slow start when attempting to follow up here three weeks ago, but can reverse the form with Damoiseau (second) with a better start and smoother run.
Prediction : 1st Trojan Truth 2nd Damoiseau 3rd Inexplicable

Handicap debutants Peace Walk and EDUCATE jointly set a decent standard here. The former, a winner over the extended 7f at Beverley on his penultimate start, commands respect but the selection won over 1m at Southwell on his racecourse bow and currently appears more suited to this stiffer test of stamina. Second to an improver on his seasonal bow at Kempton 22 days ago, the Sea The Stars colt also has match-fitness on his side. Trojan Storm rates best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Educate 2nd Peace Walk 3rd Trojan Storm

RAINWATER was a well-backed favourite on his debut at Haydock last August and, while he paid the price for a slow start that day, he did show promise as that race unfolded. Ultimately second to a filly who was pitched at a Group 3 on her next start, that run sets a good standard. Beveragino is respected back at this trip with first-time cheekpieces added, but nicely-bred newcomer Smouldering makes more appeal for the silver medal.
Prediction : 1st Rainwater 2nd Smouldering 3rd Beveragino

A winner over this course and distance on her debut for the James Own yard 10 days ago, TENYATTA is not overburdened off just a 3lb higher mark and she rates a solid option in her bid to follow up. Amroon hinted at a revival last time out and, dropped 1lb, he can also get competitive on his return to this venue. Handicap newcomer Tantomile is another must for consideration.
Prediction : 1st Tenyatta 2nd Amroon 3rd Tantomile

MISS CYNTHIA improved as the stamina tests increased on turf last season and is a different proposition to the last time she raced on a synthetic surface. Although this is a step up in class for the daughter of Sea The Moon, there is good reason to expect Sir Mark Prescott has left plenty to work with and another big run looks assured. The Craftymaster is feared despite being held off this mark at Kempton 13 days ago. Unexposed on the all-weather, Sea Grey is noted too.
Prediction : 1st Miss Cynthia 2nd The Craftymaster 3rd Sea Grey

COOLREE relished the application of blinkers for the first time here over slightly further earlier in the month, before not quite seeing it out inside the final furlong. If the headgear works again, he makes plenty of appeal with the handicapper also dropping him 1lb. Covert Legend could bounce back following wind surgery and might well be on a dangerous handicap mark, while Khathak and Darker appeal most of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Coolree 2nd Covert Legend 3rd Khathak

ARLECCHINO'S GIFT nearly made it a third career victory over C&D last time and would likely have done so barring a slow start. The five-year-old's record here since the beginning of the year has been extremely consistent and he is taken to confirm the form with Coast (third) and Sisters In The Sky (fourth). The aforementioned pair are both respected once again, while others to consider include Midnight Flame and Mumcat.
Prediction : 1st Arlecchinos Gift 2nd Coast 3rd Sisters In The Sky

GIDWA built on his second here over 7f last month when benefitting from a drop back in trip to score over C&D last time, when just denying Bernard Spierpoint in the final strides. A 2lb rise for that success is unlikely to stop him from going well again, while his old rival is likely to be a threat on the front end. Captain Wentworth has been knocking on the door in recent starts and first-time blinkers might aid his cause.
Prediction : 1st Gidwa 2nd Bernard Spierpoint 3rd Captain Wentworth
