UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

KALOKALO gradually asserted to be a ready winner when he landed a nursery at Yarmouth last month. That was his first attempt over a mile and the son of Space Blues appears to have enough scope to deal with a 4lb rise over this slightly longer trip. Hamaleel also has the potential to kick on over this distance and merits a betting check with cheekpieces added. Paroled tries the same headgear and could improve now he goes handicapping.
Prediction : 1st Kalokalo 2nd Hamaleel 3rd Paroled

COCONUT COVE did herself no favours when she got upset in the stalls and missed the break on the latest of her two previous starts. However, the manner in which she picked up as that Goodwood maiden unfolded was very encouraging and her third-placed finish can be upgraded. Given both her dam and half-sister won on the all-weather, switching to a synthetic surface should be fine for the Roger Varian-trained filly. Orange Emperor, a 90,000gns yearling, and Manly Fireball are other potential improvers to consider.
Prediction : 1st Coconut Cove 2nd Orange Emperor 3rd Manly Fireball

KRANJCAR has readily won his last five starts and has been a credit to his connections. A 5lb penalty for Monday's Hamilton success demands another personal best and the likelihood is that he will face a deeper test on these terms, but he still gets the nod. Papa Cocktail has the form to push the selection all the way and can go well if stall 10 can be negotiated, while Havana Sky won over C&D two starts back and is another key player off just 3lb higher. Silver Arrow and Saffredi complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Kranjcar 2nd Papa Cocktail 3rd Silver Arrow

HAVE YOU A MINUTE returned from a break with a fine second over C&D. He would have finished closer to the winner with a clear run and Tom Tate's charge looks one to keep on the right side of now back on a winning mark. City Escape returns to this venue with sound claims, having won five times here in the past, while course regular Enzos Angel could also go well.
Prediction : 1st Have You A Minute 2nd City Escape 3rd Enzos Angel

REVELANCE won nicely in this grade at Epsom before going close in a tougher contest at York. Still unexposed, the daughter of Blue Point could prove better than her current mark back on the all-weather and holds every chance. Jowddah also returns to this lower level and longer trip with solid claims, while Unassuming is only 3lb higher than when successful at Ascot in July.
Prediction : 1st Revelance 2nd Jowddah 3rd Unassuming

VIRTUAL HUG has been thereabouts at the finish on the turf at Bath the last twice. A return to winning ways looks imminent on that evidence and the seven-year-old is taken to end his barren spell having scored three times at this track in the past. Damzon placed off a higher mark here back in May and has a shout, while Three On Thursday could make her presence felt returning to this longer trip.
Prediction : 1st Virtual Hug 2nd Damzon 3rd Three On Thursday

Hint Of Humour recorded her first career success at Lingfield in August and could have a say off a 4lb higher rating. Invincible Crown struck over C&D on his most recent start and commands respect, but SPENDMORE LANE gets the vote. The daughter of Mayson produced a much better display when beaten a length into second at Lingfield and is just 1lb higher. If David Loughnane's filly is in similar form, she could be the one to beat.
Prediction : 1st Spendmore Lane 2nd Hint Of Humour 3rd Invincible Crown

Royal Accord went in by a length over 6f at Newmarket in August and shouldn't have any issues with this extra furlong, so he has to be respected. However, CORRESPONDENCE has shown ability in his three career outings, most recently finishing second at Newcastle, and now makes his first start in the handicap ranks. The son of War Front is likely to have more to offer and can defy his opening rating of 72. Dream Illusion completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Correspondence 2nd Royal Accord 3rd Dream Illusion

ARBOREOUS showed a liking for first-time blinkers when third over track and trip on his latest outing and only has a 2lb higher mark to contend with. If Archie Watson's charge can back that performance up, he will prove hard to beat. He's A Gentleman was well held in fourth in heavy conditions over an extended 1m2f at Chester, but is 2lb lower and could get closer. Simply Blue is another to keep an eye on.
Prediction : 1st Arboreous 2nd Hes A Gentleman 3rd Simply Blue
