13/8(+68%)
(2) Second Collection 13/8, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 15/2, second of 11 in handicap over C&D 22 days ago. Bold show likely. Engaged 6.00 here Monday.

(1) Gustav Graves 7/2, Course winner. Two wins from 41 Flat runs. Nineteen runs since last win in 2022. 4/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago, not ideally placed. Can make presence felt.

(10) Fristel 17/2, Remains a maiden after 22 starts. Off 5 months, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (6f) 7 days ago. Should be on the premises but hardly one for maximum faith given that record.
22-race maiden but has the ability to go well at this level; bare 5f perhaps not ideal.

(8) No Aw There 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft, 40/1) 29 days ago. Much less exposed than the majority of these.
Shaped with some promise on her handicap debut at Wolverhampton four weeks ago; unexposed.
LTO Selection:

16:15 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Toplight has come home in front over course and distance four times off higher ratings and, although not at his best recently, he is hard to ignore off this mark. Gustav Graves pulled hard early on before finishing well when fifth here last month and he is beginning to look well handicapped, but FRISTEL is preferred. Fourth on his first start since June at Lingfield last week, he may do better now with that run under his belt.

GUSTAV GRAVES didn't shape too badly back on AW here last time and is on a mark he's capable of exploiting. Fristel has proved expensive to follow but is good enough to make his presence felt from a basement mark. Second Collection is a force at this level but she is due to run here on Monday.

Toplight is feared but there could be more to come from the unexposed NO AW THERE and she's worth chancing.

Doctor Vuby

10/3(+58%)
(5) Doctor Vuby 10/3, £52,000 buy earlier year and showed up well for long way on his 6f course debut last month, hanging left as he weakened. Hopefully that was down to greenness and he could go well down at 5f from a handy inside draw.
Some ability when sixth over 6f on his debut here; could make his presence felt.

(10) Reprised 11/2, Promising individual. 9/4, bumped into a potentially useful one when second of 8 in novice at Beverley (5f, heavy) 55 days ago. Should be more to come for her leading yard.
Improved from her debut when second at Beverley; chance if stepping forward again.

5/1(+9%)

Placed in both starts over 5f; shapes as though this extra furlong will suit; shortlisted.

Arthur Rose

3.5
7/2(+30%)
(9) Arthur Rose 7/2, Blue Point filly. Half-sister to useful 5f winner Gabriella's Spirit and 5f winner Can To Can. From a good stable and would enter the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong.
Plenty to like on pedigree and stable often gets them ready first time; watch market.

Poor form in four starts for Richard Hannon; hard to recommend on stable debut.
LTO Selection:

16:50 Wolverhampton Stakes (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Dreadpirateroberts won at Ripon with a bit in hand in April but this will be his first start since, and he has been gelded during his absence. He seems likely to go well, but giving 9lb to REPRISED may be a big ask. A beaten favourite at Beverley where she was hampered before running on into second, a clear passage could see her get off the mark now. Fidelius might also have a say.

REPRISED appeals as one who should have more to come and can open her account. The speed Doctor Vuby showed on his 6f course debut suggests this shorter trip could suit and he's on the shortlist. Arthur Rose is an interesting newcomer.

It may be worth chancing ARTHUR ROSE who is bred to go a bit and comes from a stable which often gets them ready first time out.

(2) Debora's Dream 5/4, Fairly useful form. Creditable second of 7 in maiden at Lingfield (7f) 13 days ago, nearest finish. Makes tapeta debut. Sets the standard.

(9) Viridian 50/1, Twice-raced colt. Eighth of 12 in novice at Newcastle (7f) 15 days ago. In top hands but he will need to find improvement.

Reine Des Coeurs

16/1(-33%)
(12) Reine Des Coeurs 16/1, €80,000 Calyx filly. Dam, 1¼m winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 10.7f Jackaroo out of useful winner up to 1m (2-y-o 7f winner) Ardbrae Lady. One of 2 runners from her stable. The betting should guide.

28/1(-100%)
(10) Wide Margin 28/1, Twice-raced colt. 18/1, fifth of 8 in novice at Chelmsford (7f) 12 days ago, not knocked about. May do better.
Others have achieved superior figures and he needs this to get a handicap mark.
8
9th (8) Road To Wembley (80/1 -220%)
Road To Wembley

80
80/1(-220%)
(8) Road To Wembley 80/1, Twice-raced colt. 10/3, seventh of 10 in C&D 21 days ago. The fact he was so short in the betting suggests he's thought capable of better but he has a lot to find on form.
No better than fifth in two AW runs at this trip; looks best watched for now.

10th (3) Eastern Dream (11/2 +8%)
Eastern Dream

5.5
11/2(+8%)

(1) Away Day 200/1, Twice-raced colt. Last of 8 in novice at Chelmsford (7f, 150/1) 12 days ago. Looks more one for handicaps later on.
Beaten 20l and 34l in two 7f races, the latest on Polytrack at Chelmsford.
LTO Selection:

17:25 Wolverhampton Maiden (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Galloping On lived up to his name when fourth at Lingfield on his debut, staying on after being outpaced early in the race. If he improves for that experience he could mount a challenge, but DEBORA'S DREAM gets the nod. He arrives with the best form in the book and thoroughly deserves a victory after being beaten by a neck for the third time in five starts at Lingfield. He could win this if he retains that level, with Reine Des Coeurs and Eastern Dream newcomers to watch for future reference.

Perhaps this is the day that DEBORA'S DREAM finally gets off the mark. Galloping On made an encouraging start to his career when fourth at Lingfield last month and is second choice ahead of Formidable Force, who also hinted at promise on debut. Eastern Dream and Alvesta are newcomers of interest.

Another chance is given to DEBORA'S DREAM who has gone close in three of his five starts, with his latest effort perhaps his best yet.

Never Fear

7.5
15/2(+25%)
(6) Never Fear 15/2, Won on 6f course debut in May. Below that level since, including a nursery last time, so she needs a return to this venue to help spark a revival.

LTO Selection:

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

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

SOUTH KENSINGTON ran well when switched to the all-weather last time out at Newcastle and this test appeals as an ideal opportunity to get off the mark at the fourth time of asking. The booking of David Probert can only aid her cause, and she is preferred to the likes of Kempton third Xaarine and Delicacy, who looks to have been crying out for this rise in distance.

XAARINE gets the nod to build on a promising nursery debut at Kempton a couple of weeks ago and strike under Billy Loughnane. Falling For You should find this a bit easier than the Class 2 event she ran in at Newmarket last time and is second choice ahead of handicap-newcomers Delicacy and Marie Ellen.

Preference is for DELICACY, whose fourth at Chelmsford last time was even better than it looked and the form has since been boosted.

C&D winner on penultimate start and return to that trip may help, but drawn widest.
LTO Selection:

18:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

LIBERTY MOUNTAIN did it well when scoring comfortably over C&D last time and, as long as she can handle a wide draw, the double may be on the cards off a 5lb higher mark. Fellow C&D winner Initio is likely to be thereabouts, along with Intervention and Star Zinc, who bounced back to form at Newcastle earlier in the month.

Preference is for STAR ZINC, who was a comfortable winner at Newcastle earlier this month and remains on a workable mark. Thapa Vic and Intervention have both performed well here recently and head the list of dangers.

This can go to THAPA VC (nap) who loves it here (C&D record 111412) and is just 1lb higher than when taking this contest last year.

Seems to have lost his way and tailed off on stable debut; plenty to prove.
LTO Selection:

19:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 4) 9.5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

MASTER OF COMBAT is in the form of his life at present and there is every reason to suggest that he can bring up the hat-trick following a determined success over C&D last month, for which he has been handed a 5lb rise. Tiger Beetle arrives with similar claims following his own success over C&D recently, and he also narrowly saw off the selection at this track last December. An encouraging second at Newcastle earlier in the month, Barley is one for the shortlist.

MASTER OF COMBAT is in the form of his life, overcoming trouble late on to score over C&D last time. He remains fairly treated and is fancied to land the hat-trick. Recent winners Barley and Tiger Beetle are feared most.

The vote goes to TIGER BEETLE whose 9lb rise for his impressive recent C&D win still leaves him 2lb below his previous winning mark.

(4) Light Up Our Stars 13/2, Back to winning ways at Southwell (8.1f) in September and followed up in 9-runner handicap at this course (8.6f, 9/2) 19 days ago. 4 lb rise fair and looks sure to go well again.
Bids for Tapeta hat-trick, but is 1-15 over trips beyond 9f which sounds a note of caution.
LTO Selection:

19:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

LIGHT UP OUR STARS will arrive full of confidence following wins at Southwell (1m) and over an extended 1m here and, with stepping back up in trip unlikely to pose any problems, he is fancied to complete the hat-trick. Bint Al Daar steps back down in class and should make her presence felt, while Another Beautiful may improve for the application of a hood.

The hat-trick seeking LIGHT UP OUR STARS still looks feasibly treated on old form and may be able to score again. Romilda and Bint Al Daar look the likeliest dangers.

The vote goes to ARCADIAN NIGHTS, a dual C&D winner this year who didn't enjoy much luck in a better race on his latest visit.

Just 1-27 for former yard but his win came at this track; new headgear for stable debut.

(4) Revoquable 4/1, Improved on recent efforts to win 11-runner handicap (7/2) at Newcastle (8f) 14 days ago, all out. Shade more needed here off this 3 lb higher mark, but he's a player nonetheless.
Drew clear with runner-up when scoring at Wolverhampton two weeks ago; contender up 3lb.
LTO Selection:

20:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 9f Race Class Flow

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

REVOQUABLE was game in victory over 1m at Newcastle last month and a 3lb rise might not be enough to anchor him if arriving in the same mood. Kenstone was only beaten a neck into third over 7f here last time and he has a definite chance lining up off the same rating, similarly Brave Display, who is on a workable mark at present.

This step back up in trip is unlikely to inconvenience the 10-y-o KENSTONE, who bounced back from a couple of lesser efforts when going close over 7.2f here three weeks ago. He remains on a competitive mark (just 1 lb higher than for his latest success) and gets the nod. Available Angel put in a good shift when third to an upwardly mobile type at this course last time and she is second choice ahead of recent Newcastle winner Revoquable and Hellavapace.

A tricky race in which HELLAVAPACE is tentatively preferred to Kenstone and Revoquable.

Late headway on first start for Kubler's (150-1); extra yardage may suit on handicap debut.
LTO Selection:

20:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

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

A number of these look to hold claims, so CORNISH STORM receives what can only be a tentative vote. He won pretty much as he liked over this trip at Kempton last time and providing he can reproduce that level of performance, he should remain competitive off a 7lb higher mark. Virtual Hug ran to a similar level when successful over 1m6f here latest and he is a must for the shortlist, while Global Tycoon and Bear Claws are others to note.

It's taken CORNISH STORM time to get the hang of things, but he did just that in no uncertain terms when striking at Kempton in September and he looks more than capable of following up off this 7 lb higher mark. Bear Claw has a good chance of reversing recent placings with Virtual Hug on these revised terms and he is feared most. Handicap debutante Looklikewemadeit is third choice, with Ghostly, who returned to form at Newcastle 12 days ago, also shortlisted.

Stacks of overlapping form. The suggestion is the Kempton scorer CORNISH STORM, who should continue to progress over middle distances.

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.
