16:55 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

The vote goes to KINGSTON JOY, who filled the runner-up spot over an extended 1m1f here 10 days ago. David Simcock's charge is competitively handicapped from an unchanged mark, and, with the return to further a positive, she can go one better. Moon Over The Sea continues to run well and must feature prominently in calculations, while others to note include Virtual Hug and Tables Turned.

VIRTUAL HUG has been in good order since the turn of the year and, still on a fair mark, he is taken to add to his C&D success in February. Next on the list is Moon Over The Sea, who has also been holding his form well in recent months. Kingston Joy and Pittsburg should both be on the premises, too.

Preference is for VIRTUAL HUG who is fully effective over further, but did win a steadily run event over C&D in February.

17:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 9f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

A maiden after nine attempts, BITCOIN PROFIT was a good second over 7f on his first start for the Max Young team last month. The way in which he kept on that day would suggest this extended mile will suit and a first career success might be in the offing. Rust E Boy, who finished behind the selection in third, holds obvious claims from an unchanged mark. Takeityouremine shaped with more promise than her finishing position would suggest last time and she's worth a second look.

RUST E BOY has been placed twice over shorter trips here in recent months and might be able to get off the mark if his stamina holds now stepping back up in distance. Bitcoin Profit made a positive start for new trainer Max Young when second over 7f here last month and is second choice ahead of Trois Blancs.

This can go to BITCOIN PROFIT who comes into this in fair form and had two of these behind when second on stable debut here last month.

18:00 Wolverhampton Maiden (Class 5) 9.5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Marhaba Million, a son of Galileo and a relation to a handful of useful types, and 200,000gns purchase Roland Garros, who will relish this initial test of stamina, are two interesting newcomers for their respective yards but stablemate of the latter, KING'S CORONATION, gets the vote. The son of Kingman ran well amidst greenness over the extended mile here on his debut but he is a likely improver and can put that experience to good use. Hampden and Pique' complete the shortlist.

KING'S CORONATION showed lots of promise once he grasped what was required on his recent course debut and can leave that behind and strike at the second time of asking. Hampden was placed over C&D on his final juvenile start and should have more to offer this year so he's taken to fill the forecast spot ahead of Dream Ocean. The selection's debuting stablemate Roland Garros would also need considering if the betting suggests he's fancied.

The vote goes to KING'S CORONATION who gave the impression he would come on plenty for last month's course debut.

18:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

SAY YOU'LL NEVER looks to have improved from two to three judged on her third behind subsequent winner Shallow at Chelmsford in February and, making her handicap debut off a fair-looking mark of 62, she rates the one to beat. Musical Diva won readily at this venue in January and she looks the biggest threat, ahead of Horse Whisperer, who is 1lb lower than when placed at Southwell.

SAY YOU'LL NEVER took a step forward when third in a 6f maiden at Chelmsford in February and, with that form proving strong, she's selected to make a successful handicap debut. Horse Whisperer is feared most ahead of Musical Diva.

It may be worth siding with HOT FRONT whose last two appearances in fillies-only races have resulted in a win and a narrow defeat.

19:00 Wolverhampton Stakes (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

BELLA BISBEE built on her promising debut when scoring readily over 6f at Wolverhampton and, with this longer trip unlikely to pose any problems, she can complete the double. Prefer The Sister outran huge odds when fourth on her debut at Southwell last month and any improvement should see her in the mix, similarly Radiant Angel, who also made a pleasing introduction.

BELLA BISBEE went one better than on debut when scoring with a fair bit in hand at this course in November and, with the potential of further progress to come, she can follow up on her return. Prefer The Sister showed some promise on her first start and could be the biggest threat, ahead of Radiant Angel.

This can go to BELLA BISBEE who showed good form in both starts over 6f last autumn, including an authoritative win here.

19:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

TAMARIS returned to the level in December and has stepped forward with each outing, the latest seeing him get his head in front at Kempton in January, and the seven-year-old remains capable of better, especially now in the care of James Owen. Tarbat Ness was a consistent performer at the back end of last year and the switch of headgear to blinkers might aid his cause. Baileys Warrior, Smokey Malone and Doublethetrouble appear best of the remainder.

TAMARIS resumed winning ways on his final start for Joe Tizzard at Kempton in January and, up just 2 lb and having since joined the shrewd James Owen yard, he is taken to follow up here. Smokey Malone didn't do much wrong when third at Southwell last time and he is feared, along with the consistent Baileys Warrior.

The choice is BAILEYS WARRIOR who twice chased home the prolific The Craftymaster over C&D during the winter.

20:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

KRAKEN DIAMOND has been running with promise since joining Brian Toomey and stepping back up in trip, along with the booking of Oisin Murphy, all look to be positives in his attempt to get off the mark. Cryptos Dream is a player based on her recent efforts and her rider's 7lb claim, while Muhalhel's recent consistency entitles him to a place on the shortlist.

KRAKEN DIAMOND should be suited by the step back up in trip and gets the nod in a tricky-looking handicap. Muhalhel and Locked N' Loaded can also make their presence felt.

Topweight CRYPTOS DREAM has done well since joining Jack Jones last summer and Archie Young's claims a useful 7lb tonight.

20:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

TROJAN TRUTH won readily under tonight's rider over C&D last time and a 3lb rise probably won't be enough to anchor him if arriving in the same mood. Calcutta Dream has backed up his Chelmsford success with three solid efforts in defeat and he is likely to be in the firing line once again. Damoiseau and Eaux De Vie are others to keep an eye on.

TROJAN TRUTH was a convincing winner under this pilot here last month and hasn't been harshly treated by the handicapper for that success. He can follow up. Calcutta Dream and Pink Jazz rate the principal dangers.

Having kept on strongly to win readily over C&D ten days ago, after a break, TROJAN TRUTH (nap) is taken to overcome a 3lb rise.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
