UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

It's hard to enthuse over the chances of many, but preference is afforded to ROCK N IT. Mark Loughnane's gelding made a pleasing handicap debut at Ffos Las recently so if handling the Tapeta surface, then he should go close from an unchanged mark. There have been more encouraging signs from Flicka's Girl of late and she enters calculations, while My Boy Harry completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Rock N It 2nd Flickas Girl 3rd My Boy Harry

On paper, this should be plain sailing for MANY A STAR, who struck at Newmarket on his penultimate start. The eight-year-old is rated 9lb higher than his likely nearest pursuer Fierce while receiving 8lb from that rival and, with that in mind, Jamie Osborne's gelding could prove hard to beat. Dapper Valley receives weight from that pair and can't be ruled out, but he will undoubtedly need to better recent efforts.
Prediction : 1st Many A Star 2nd Fierce 3rd Dapper Valley

Wyle Cop just about sets the standard with an official rating of 82, while Enricher, who holds a mark of 79, should also be involved. However, it looks best to side with SEA COOKIE. Tom Clover's colt made an extremely promising introduction when filling the runner-up spot at Newbury on his debut and, being a half-brother to an Italian all-weather winner, he can now go one place better.
Prediction : 1st Sea Cookie 2nd Wyle Cop 3rd Enricher

BOUBOULE may be the best of these if the first-time cheekpieces bring any improvement. Third at Salisbury on his first start for Harry Derham, a repeat of his Southwell effort off 1lb higher two starts ago may be enough. Leicester second Cynthia was only beaten a head over this distance last month and she can go well despite an added 4lb, leaving Without Burlington to chase them home assuming he improves for the added two furlongs.
Prediction : 1st Bouboule 2nd Cynthia 3rd Without Burlington

Marquis Pompeo showed plenty of improvement when third at Leicester on his second start, keeping on over the six furlongs without really troubling the winner. He can go well back up at seven furlongs, but POLYGRAM may be worth one last chance in first-time cheekpieces. Five starts have seen two places from the Dark Angel filly and although only fourth last month, she can win a race of this nature. Eliza Bennet was second in a handicap in June and also has to be considered returning to maiden company.
Prediction : 1st Polygram 2nd Marquis Pompeo 3rd Eliza Bennet

Harbour Vision has an enviable track record with eight victories, and he arrives in form after a second at Southwell earlier this month. He can go well, but a chance is taken on the lightly-raced WAITING FOR LOVE. James Tate's filly clearly has ability, winning over C&D by seven lengths last December, but has not matched that level since. Miss Chester is a tentative suggestion for the minor placing.
Prediction : 1st Waiting For Love 2nd Harbour Vision 3rd Miss Chester
