UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

POETIC FORCE tends to go well for Molly Gunn and her 7lb claim is undoubtedly a useful tool draw on. Allied to that, the gelding runs off 3lb below his last winning mark and he gets the vote. Gilt Edge came good with a surprise win over this C&D last month and enters calculations off just 3lb higher, while Yoshimi is another player based on recent performances.
Prediction : 1st Poetic Force 2nd Gilt Edge 3rd Yoshimi

LADY WINGALONG and Jordan Williams teamed up to good effect when scoring over this C&D last month and the pairing appeals strongly bidding to follow up from just 4lb higher. This doesn't appear to be any tougher but the likes of Mokaatil and Guiteau are capable of going well. The unexposed Safanah is another must for consideration on her handicap debut.
Prediction : 1st Lady Wingalong 2nd Mokaatil 3rd Guiteau

GEORGINIO was underestimated in the market at Southwell on his latest start, but the Archie Watson-trained gelding ran way above expectations to stay on for a respectable third-placed finish over a mile. With the promise of more to come over this trip, the son Sergei Prokofiev could easily deliver a more accomplished performance. Patrol and Sol Argent are others to consider, while No Release could also go well if he can overcome a wide draw.
Prediction : 1st Georginio 2nd Patrol 3rd Sol Argent

CAPLA LAZARUS could only manage fourth at Nottingham in October, but that form looks stronger in hindsight given the third has won subsequently. He should have more to offer with his rider's 7lb allowance further helping his cause and can feature in the finish. Steps In Time finished runner-up over further here on debut and can confirm his superiority over Mr Grimes (third), while the Chelmsford second Waiting For Love is another likely improver.
Prediction : 1st Capla Lazarus 2nd Steps In Time 3rd Waiting For Love

DUBAI MAGIC put a disappointing effort behind her when finishing a respectable third at Chelmsford latest. There looks more to come off her current mark and the daughter of Showcasing can turn the tables with the winner Piranha Rama on more favourable terms. The latter will be no pushover, despite a 3lb rise for that success, while Jane Garfield can make her presence felt too.
Prediction : 1st Dubai Magic 2nd Piranha Rama 3rd Jane Garfield

DANCE TIME regained the winning thread with a victory over the extended 2m here last time. David Loughane's filly won a shade cosily on that occasion and another bold bid looks likely with an apprentice's allowance negating a 3lb rise. Black Smoke won over course and distance in September and can have a say in proceedings once again, while Southwell winner Alex The Great is another to consider having placed here last month.
Prediction : 1st Dance Time 2nd Black Smoke 3rd Alex The Great

HARVANNA, whose dam won over this trip, is unexposed over 6f and could well cement her authority over this field under top-weight. The daughter of Havana Grey debuts for a yard whose record with similar types is highly encouraging and this could open new doors for her if the trip proves to be ideal. 5f Southwell winner My Awele is another potential improver over this distance, while Byzantine Empress boasts solid handicap form in Ireland.
Prediction : 1st Harvanna 2nd My Awele 3rd Byzantine Empress

ALFA WHITEBURD has been profitable to follow of late and a 6lb rise for last month's cosy success over 6f at Newcastle might not be enough to prevent this improved gelding from following up. Wind surgery seems to have given the three-year-old the boost he needed and he is hard to oppose. Giorgio M, Moulin Booj and Phoenix Of Dreams are other notable contenders.
Prediction : 1st Alfa Whiteburd 2nd Giorgio M 3rd Moulin Booj

CARAMAY will likely prove popular in the finale, and rightly so given she's won two of her last three starts and finished second on the other occasion. She won here in September and the gut feeling is that there is more improvement in her over this trip. Sisterandbrother is the main danger following his close third at Southwell most recently, while it's also worth keeping an eye on Dillydingdillydong.
Prediction : 1st Caramay 2nd Sisterandbrother 3rd Dillydingdillydong
