LTO Selection:

17:25 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Serena Brotherton and the Easterbys have an imperious record in races of this nature and Point Louise looks set to play a prominent role despite having to carry top weight. However, the one that appeals most on these terms is BREGUET BOY, who exploited a drop in the ratings courtesy of a brace of wins earlier in the campaign. He is a previous course winner and a highly tempting proposition on debut for Archie Watson. Inexplicable and Hellavapace are others to consider.

BREGUET BOY has been in good order for Keith Dalgleish this season and has joined another shrewd stable, so he's the one to beat. Miss Harmony is an obvious danger following a return to form at Nottingham and Point Louise looks a player back on AW.

An interesting opener in which plenty enter the reckoning. However, after a pleasing recent Nottingham run, MISS HARMONY is preferred.

Has come up short in three 5f races and this should be more her trip on pedigree.
LTO Selection:

18:00 Wolverhampton Stakes (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

The form of Bigger Than Giga's Kempton success has already taken a few knocks and, although respected as the only previous winner in the line-up, she looks vulnerable having to conceded 5lb and more to the rest. Therefore, the vote goes to TOKYO DREAMER, who has been consistent in maiden company of late and looks the pick at these weights. Any market support for newcomers Eminent Jewel and Miss Anya would also be noteworthy.

EMINENT JEWEL is a half-sister to several winners and represents an in-form stable, so she's worth a chance to make a winning start at the possible expense of Bigger Than Giga, the only previous winner in the field. Tokyo Dreamer should also be on the premises.

This is not a strong novice but quite an open one. Preference is for QANDIL, for whom this trip should be more suitable than sprinting.

Made all on turf in June (7f); going excuse since; first 7f AW run since February 2022 win.
LTO Selection:

18:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Tathmeen is an old hand in races like this and is suggested as shortlist material given he is back on a winning mark, while Shorts On, who won at Yarmouth on his penultimate start, is also dangerously well handicapped now back on the all-weather. Nevertheless, MAGIC GEM still has low mileage and he looks the way to go based on recent performances. Kodi Noir is another to bear in mind.

HEZAHUNK ran his most encouraging race to date when fourth at Chelmsford last time and this lightly-raced 4-y-o can build on that and get off the mark. The hat-trick seeking Magic Gem is second choice ahead of Bluebells Boy, who took a step back in the right direction when fourth at Newcastle.

Magic Gem still has more to offer but there are others who like to lead and preference is for HEZAHUNK after his good Chelmsford run

LTO Selection:

19:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Bomb Squad was unable to sustain the gallop having made an explosive start at Newcastle last time out, but he merits respect following a string of placed efforts. Red Alert's winning run came to an end at Brighton last month but he cannot be left out of calculations, though preference is for PORFIN. Phil McEntee's charge is now 8lb below his last winning mark and recent performances would suggest he might be ready to cash in.

A few with chances but RED ALERT wasn't seen to best effect when fourth at Brighton and can quickly resume winning ways off an unchanged mark here. Porfin continues in good order and is next on the list ahead of the handily-weighted Bomb Squad and handicap debutant Little Man.

He was slightly disappointing over 1m last time but EMBARKED was a creditable fourth in a much stronger 7f race than this two runs ago.

(11) Anieres Girl 12/1, Hooded first time, fourteenth of 15 in handicap at Redcar (7f, good to soft, 14/1) 64 days ago. Back up in trip. Makes tapeta debut. Others more persuasive.
Has disappointed on all three turf starts this season; has lots to prove on this AW debut.
LTO Selection:

19:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 9f Race Class Flow

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

WILD HOOFER showed signs of ability in his three qualifying runs, each over 7f. This step up in trip should suit Archie Watson's colt, and an opening mark of 65 could be well within range for the son of Jungle Cat. Hildegard hit the frame at Kempton last time and would be firmly in the mix with a repeat performance, while Fleur De Mer appeals most of the remainder.

HILDEGARD showed enough at Kempton last time to think she has a race in her from a mark in the low 60s and gets the vote, although it is potentially significant that stable jockey Hollie Doyle is on the yard's other runner Wild Hoofer, a handicap newcomer for whom a strong market move would look significant. Fleur de Mer appeals as one who could do better in handicaps and also makes the shortlist.

After doing pretty well to claim third in a recent Kempton handicap, HILDEGARD gets the vote in the hope the headgear continues to help.

Unexposed 3yo whose Lingfield win in November looks solid; market instructive after break.

C&D winner but bad draw on first run for new yard after a break (sold for £1,000 in May).
LTO Selection:

20:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Despite finishing a well-beaten fourth in a 0-80 at Chester last month, DOLLY GRAY was far from disgraced and she might be able to resume her progress down in class. David Loughnane's filly shades the vote ahead of Asadjumeirah, who continues to knock on the door. Imperial Dream is another who must enter calculations, while the unexposed Fifty Year Storm could play a part following a 248-day absence.

FIFTY YEAR STORM remains with potential back from 8 months off and looks on a fair mark for her handicap debut. She can make a winning return. Asadjumeirah and Imperial Dream are the principal dangers.

Antony Brittain holds a strong hand here with MURBIH preferred to Asadjumeirah.

(5) Speed Dial Baileys 2.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fifth of 9 in handicap (7/2) at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm) 36 days ago, doing too much too soon. Much respected on her tapeta debut.

Chance on this year's best but two runs back from a short break have been underwhelming.

Off the mark over 6f here two weeks ago; still feasibly handicapped; major player.

2-2 for S Dixon, both over C&D last autumn; still feasibly treated; yard quiet this summer.
LTO Selection:

20:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Michael Dods has been in amongst the winners recently with Show Compassion helping with a win here over six furlongs last time out, but she has another 4lb now and is yet to win over this trip. VALENTINE BLUES took her only two starts last season, both over C&D, and if she is ready to go on her return to action she could add to that tally. Sparked is the pick for third, though the rest do look closely matched.

SHOW COMPASSION cosily got off the mark here a fortnight ago and is fancied to go in again with that form starting to work out well. Course winner Storm Melody is easing in the weights and could emerge as the main danger, although the returning Valentine Blues needs considering too given she has a good record fresh.

Sparked has a big run in her now dropped in grade but SHOW COMPASSION (nap) won cosily here two weeks ago and can follow up.

LTO Selection:

21:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Red Walls drops a class after some poor efforts but he has won here three times, with two off higher marks. Preference, though, is for BATTLE POINT. His last win was off this mark and although he has raced three times since, he returns from wind surgery here and may bounce back to form. Of the others, it could be worth considering Yaahobby judged on his recent placed form.

YAAHOBBY is in fine form and can end his losing run. Laertes is the danger back on AW. Lancashire Life is also in the hunt.

The tentative suggestion is Antony Brittain's YAAHOBBY, who has been keeping reasonable fettle over 6f in recent weeks.

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.
