UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

NEW BOMBAY impressed when he ran away with a nursery over 7f at Chester 12 days ago and, while that race unfolded to suit, the Andrew Balding-trained colt got better the further he went and appeals strongly over this longer trip, given he is 4lb well-in under a penalty. What's She At should pose a big threat if coping with the additional yardage after her 7f Redcar maiden win, while Coverbridge is readily suggested as the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st New Bombay 2nd Whats She At 3rd Coverbridge

FRENCH MISTRESS has shown distinct promise in her two previous starts and rates an attractive proposition to make it third-time lucky. A half-sister to a couple of winners on the all-weather, including subsequent Group 3 scorer Mohaafeth, the four-year-old ticks all the right boxes and can get off the mark if an awkward draw doesn't hinder her chance. Islanova represents a high-profile yard and must be feared at this level, although similar comments apply to Pleka and Charlotte's Web, who complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st French Mistress 2nd Islanova 3rd Pleka

Already a dual C&D winner, ELDEYAAR is an appealing type for a race of this nature and is 2lb below his last winning mark. He has proven best when he races on the front end and, from stall two, he is ideally berthed to ensure this is run at a strong tempo. Fellow two-time C&D winner White Umbrella is feared most of those likely to come from off the pace. Danzart, Monsieur Patat and Crypto Quest are others with place claims at least.
Prediction : 1st Eldeyaar 2nd White Umbrella 3rd Danzart

After a serene success over C&D last month, this looks a good opportunity for STANDBACKANDLOOK to follow up. William Knight's charge has been raised 6lb in the ratings for that three-length victory, which could prove lenient. The hat-trick seeking Miss Gitana might be his biggest danger after a game performance over this trip at Bath, although a further 3lb hike could be a step too far. Small Fry is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Standbackandlook 2nd Miss Gitana 3rd Small Fry

ACES WILD appears to be the most solid proposition in this field following a last-gasp success over C&D, and a repeat of that effort would make him difficult to beat. Adrian Wintle's runner won with more in hand than the narrow margin might suggest and a 4lb rise may not halt his progression. Nelson Gay struck over track and trip off a 7lb higher mark last September and a return to form would see him involved, while any market support for Mondammej should be noted.
Prediction : 1st Aces Wild 2nd Nelson Gay 3rd Mondammej

CLEVER CURRENCY won as he liked over the extended 1m3f at Yarmouth last week and he appears likely to take all the beating again. Michael Bell's charge could have won by further than the eventual seven-length margin and the 4lb penalty may not be enough to stop him. Dillydingdillydong is feared most having scored over C&D on his penultimate run, while Bay Of Naples completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Clever Currency 2nd Dillydingdillydong 3rd Bay Of Naples
