UK Horse Racing Tips: Wolverhampton

DILIGENT HENRY had shown signs of a revival prior to winning over C&D a fortnight ago and given that he remains competitively handicapped from 5lb higher, Jessica Macey's gelding can follow up. Bandello (second) finished on the coattails of Blue Jay Way (winner) at Catterick latest and he could bridge the gap on revised terms, while Beautiful Dawn is just one more to consider.
Prediction : 1st Diligent Henry 2nd Bandello 3rd Blue Jay Way

Three last-time-out winners head to post, but MWAFAQ could be the pick of them. Richard Fahey's charge had been in the doldrums from some time before coming home best of all to record a comfortable C&D triumph a fortnight ago. It could be that this track suits him well though, and he is taken to go in again. Groundsman and Kaleidoscope Eyes are obvious threats, as is Blue Empress.
Prediction : 1st Mwafaq 2nd Kaleidoscope Eyes 3rd Groundsman

Naana's Shadow arrives having posted a brace of second placed efforts at Southwell and is likely to be thereabouts again, but VISUALLY could be a cut above his rivals. The Expert Eye colt overcame greenness to make a successful debut at Bath earlier this month and the winner's penalty shouldn't be enough to stop him. Perineighs can chase the pair home.
Prediction : 1st Visually 2nd Naanas Shadow 3rd Perineighs

High Approval just about sets the standard with an official rating of 78 but having disappointed at Ffos Las in August, NOBLE VOW looks the safer option. Richard Hannon's charge has shown steady improvement across his three career starts and was an unfortunate third at Newbury latest, where he suffered repeated interference. Return Of The Gods shaped with considerable promise over C&D on his racecourse bow and is most appealing of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Noble Vow 2nd High Approval 3rd Return Of The Gods

Al Khawaneej River was well beaten into third over 1m4f at Brighton last month, but he has to be considered given that a return to further ought to suit. However, KHANGAI outran his odds of 25-1 to finish third over an extended 2m at Newcastle on his most recent start and is 1lb lower. Today's drop in distance shouldn't pose any problems and he looks the way to go. Spectacular Style completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Khangai 2nd Al Khawaneej River 3rd Spectacular Style

Megaphone produced an improved display to finish fourth at Lingfield six days ago and he must be respected from an unchanged rating. However, ZIGGY'S CONDOR lost two places inside the final furlong over 7f at York recently and despite being raised 1lb, he should benefit from a drop in trip. Provided the four-year-old is in similar form, he could be the one to beat. Of the remainder, Blue Anthem makes the most appeal.
Prediction : 1st Ziggys Condor 2nd Megaphone 3rd Blue Anthem

Simba's Gift finished fifth on his handicap debut at Southwell last month, but he receives a marginal rise in distance and may have more to offer. However, EL FOX was far from disgraced in fourth over an extended 1m1f at this venue last month and it is noteworthy that Luke Morris keeps the ride. Marco Botti's filly might only need to reproduce that level of form in order to strike. Suzuka may also have a say.
Prediction : 1st El Fox 2nd Simbas Gift 3rd Suzuka

LITTLE MISS INDIA benefitted from the application of a first-time hood to score in fine style at Southwell earlier in the month and a 6lb rise might prove to be lenient. As long as James Owen's filly can back that performance up in the retained headgear, she will prove tough to beat. Course winner Meet Me In Meraki landed a selling handicap over 1m2f at Chelmsford at the start of the month and needs to be considered. Endofastorm is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Little Miss India 2nd Meet Me In Meraki 3rd Endofastorm
