UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

Kitaro Kich wasn't winning out of turn over C&D last week and is expected to go well again. However, a 5lb penalty makes life tougher and on 5lb worse terms, he isn't guaranteed to confirm that form with runner-up PESSOA, who has been knocking hard on the door of late. It will be interesting to see how Marioento fares in the betting now he swaps novice company for handicaps.
Prediction : 1st Pessoa 2nd Kitaro Kich 3rd Marioento

Going back up to a mile really helped GAIETY MUSICAL when she scored at Kempton recently and there could be more to come. Her supporters will be pleased to see that Richard Kingscote keeps the ride and she can confirm form with Top Of The Class (second), with this extra half a furlong potentially a source of further improvement. Keep an eye on Celebrating Ethel too.
Prediction : 1st Gaiety Musical 2nd Top Of The Class 3rd Celebrating Ethel

The eye is immediately drawn to DANCING COLOURS, who represents the powerhouse Charlie Appleby yard and she improved from her first to second run when taking the silver medal at Kempton last month. Entitled to have progressed again since, she gets the nod ahead of Chelmsford debut fifth Dance In The Storm, a potential improver for another top yard. Phrygia makes the most appeal of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Dancing Colours 2nd Dance In The Storm 3rd Phrygia

GALILEO GLASS pulled hard when sporting first-time blinkers and fading into sixth over this trip at Chelmsford on his first start for the Darryll Holland stable. If the six-year-old can settle better off a 3lb lower mark, then he could record his second course-and-distance victory. Bossy Parker ran below par when fourth over track and trip last time, but he is a player based on his second here prior to that display. Of the remainder, Plumette makes the most appeal after her third over this C&D.
Prediction : 1st Galileo Glass 2nd Bossy Parker 3rd Plumette

More was expected of RAVENGLASS when only managing fifth over track and trip earlier in the month, but he is 1lb lower now and has Cam Hardie back on board. The six-year-old made the frame in two starts at this venue prior to that most recent effort and a reproduction of either of those displays might be good enough here. Kranjcar wasn't beaten far into sixth over 6f at Newcastle last Tuesday and might appreciate this step back up in trip off an unchanged mark. Big Narstie isn't out of it either.
Prediction : 1st Ravenglass 2nd Kranjcar 3rd Big Narstie

City Cyclone completed a course double on his latest outing and only has a 4lb higher mark to contend with, but this drop in trip might open the door for ROYAL MUSKETEER. Steph Hollinshead's seven-year-old competes off 4lb higher than his C&D success earlier in the month, but that is unlikely to prevent him from going in again. Last-time-out Newcastle scorer Jimmy Knocker is another to watch out for.
Prediction : 1st Royal Musketeer 2nd City Cyclone 3rd Jimmy Knocker

HAWA JUMEIRAH benefited from his return at Kempton when scoring over C&D last Monday, with Starfighter back in third on that occasion. The four-year-old was making his second appearance on the all-weather and remains with the scope for a fair amount of improvement under a 5lb penalty. The aforementioned Starfighter is likely to enter calculations, while first-time cheekpieces and stepping up in distance looks an interesting move for Tancredi.
Prediction : 1st Hawa Jumeirah 2nd Starfighter 3rd Tancredi

DISQUIETUDE has appreciated the switch to classified company on her last couple of starts, with placed efforts here and at Kempton. The four-year-old drops back in trip which looks to be the right move and the daughter of Tamayuz gets the vote to shed the maiden tag. Lhebayeb has shown some competitive handicap form in recent months and is capable of being in the mix. Others to note are National Health and Advindi.
Prediction : 1st Disquietude 2nd Lhebayeb 3rd National Health

SPARTAN TIMES wasn't disgraced in finishing fifth on handicap debut over C&D a fortnight ago and, off a 1lb lower mark, the four-year-old appears to have been found an excellent opportunity to gain a first career success. Northstead Gardens has been running consistently well in recent months and looks to be a leading threat. Pop Noodle didn't have much luck at the start here earlier in the month and may be worth another chance.
Prediction : 1st Spartan Times 2nd Northstead Gardens 3rd Pop Noodle
