11th (6) Eagle One (11/1 +45%)
Eagle One

11
11/1(+45%)
(6) Eagle One 11/1, Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. Respectable seventh of 12 in handicap (18/1) at Kempton (1½m) 26 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Down significantly in trip.
His two wins have been over 1m4f and 1m6f; fair 3rd over 1m4f here in June; trip a concern.
LTO Selection:

16:25 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 9f Race Class Flow

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

Eagle Eyed Tom struck by just over a length at Beverley when last seen in August and he has to be respected on his first start for the Ian Williams stable, despite a 5lb hike. However, preference is for HEY LYLA, who got up to score by half a length at Chelmsford last month and she was only given a 3lb rise for that success, which may not be enough to prevent the double. Masterpainter finished a fair third at Southwell last time and is another to note.

Beverley-winner EAGLE EYED TOM stands out as an unexposed sort in this field and is taken to strike at the first time of asking for Ian Williams. Green Power arrives at the top of his game and is second choice ahead of Masterpainter.

The in-form GREEN POWER is taken to win his second race of the year with Eagle Eyed Tom and Masterpainter likely dangers.

King Triton

7.5
15/2(-15%)

Maid In London

4.5
9/2(+44%)
(8) Maid In London 9/2, C&D winner. Creditable fourth at Newcastle in July but ran poorly back from a short break at Kempton in September. Has a first-time visor replacing cheekpieces back from another 8 weeks off.
Bit disappointing since C&D novice win in June; new headgear; bit to prove.

Reidh

3
3/1(+25%)
(4) Reidh 3/1, 5/1, creditable fifth of 12 in handicap at this course (7f) 13 days ago, nearest finish. Step back up in trip could suit. On the shortlist.
0-8; fair run over 7f on AW debut here when shaping as though this longer trip would suit.
6
11th (6) Jade Country (100/1 -203%)
Jade Country

100
100/1(-203%)
(6) Jade Country 100/1, Last of 10 in handicap (40/1) at Kempton (7f) 26 days ago. Up in trip. Hard to be confident about at present.
Not the best of strike-rates; needs to bounce back from a disappointing AW run last time.
LTO Selection:

16:55 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 8.5f Race Class Flow

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

Wadacre Grace was successful by a head over a mile at Kempton last month and she is likely to be thereabouts off only 2lb higher, but marginal preference is for recent C&D winner HARBOUR VISION. The son of Harbour Watch was only put up 2lb for that display and a repeat performance may suffice in this company. Flatley may be best of the rest as he takes a step back up in distance.

WADACRE GRACE has a handy draw for one who often leads and a 2 lb rise for Kempton may not prevent her going in again. Fellow last-time-out scorer Harbour Vision heads the dangers along with Al Baahy and Reidh.

Having returned to winning ways over C&D last time, HARBOUR VISION can follow up off this 2lb higher mark.

(1) Rogue Soldier 11/10, Lightly-raced gelding. 6/1, very good third of 11 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 75 days ago, pulling clear with another pair of improvers. Not out of things now stamina is tested a little more.
Went close behind two subsequent winners at Kempton latest; key player back up in trip.

Meleki

2.5
5/2(+38%)
(5) Meleki 5/2, Muhaarar filly. Dam smart winner up to 1m (including at 2 yrs). Offered something to work on whilst being found wanting for know-how when fifth of 12 in a C&D novice on debut 16 days ago, running green early in straight and keeping on. Likely to improve.
Shaped with promise over C&D last month and looks a likely improver on her second start.

(3) Artavian 66/1, Twice-raced gelding. Eighth of 14 in maiden at Windsor (8.1f, good to soft, 100/1) 21 days ago, struggling over 3f out. Low-grade handicaps entitled to be more his bag.
Down the field at big prices in both runs and minor handicaps will be more suitable.

Pourquoi

25
25/1(-178%)
(7) Pourquoi 25/1, Lightly-raced filly. 4/1, shaped a good deal better than distance beaten suggests when last of 5 in minor event at Lingfield (10f, AW) 51 days ago, reportedly losing her action entering final 1f. Remains the type to do better but handicaps/over further may suit ideally.
Sets standard on debut form but she's not gone on from that and was pulled up last time.

Bluebottle Blue

4.5

Promising third behind impressive winner at Windsor and she's open to progress up in trip.

On The Cards

16
16/1(+36%)

Half-brother to a Listed-placed 1m3f/1m4f winner; needs watching in market on debut.

Alta Comedia

9
9/1(-13%)
(6) Alta Comedia 9/1, Bobby's Kitten filly who was held back by inexperience but offered something to work on when fifth of 10 in minor event at Lingfield (10f, AW, 10/1) on debut in March. Absent since but she's open to improvement.
Showed ability at Lingfield in March but she needs major improvement on her return.
LTO Selection:

17:30 Wolverhampton Maiden (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

BLUEBOTTLE BLUE shaped with promise on debut to finish third behind a promising type in Doha and she should have learned a great deal from that experience. The three-year-old could have plenty more to come and she looks the one to beat. Alta Comedia wasn't disgraced in fifth on her first start at Lingfield and she can also take a step forward to have a say. Any market support for On The Cards on debut should be noted.

BLUEBOTTLE BLUE offered something to work on first time up when third in a Windsor maiden 3 weeks ago, and with progress anticipated, she can build on that here and come out on top. Melekialong ought to have derived plenty from her debut effort also and is feared, along with Rogue Solider and Pourquoi.

The William Haggas-trained BLUEBOTTLE BLUE made a promising start at Windsor and looks a likely improver over this longer trip.

LTO Selection:

18:00 Wolverhampton Maiden (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Cervaro Della Sala has an experience edge after two placed starts, with a debut second at Kempton followed by a third over C&D when letting favourite-backers down and beaten over two lengths after pulling too hard early on. She can go well again, but BELLA BISBEE was an unlucky loser when second at Chelmsford first time out and may make amends now. Only beaten a neck despite a slow start and a blocked run, she can only improve for the experience and she is taken to go one better this evening. Newcomers Nad Alshiba Queen and Say You'll Never are ones to watch for future reference.

BELLA BISBEE made a very promising start when runner-up on debut in a Chelmsford novice over this trip 9 days ago, looking a shade unfortunate not to prevail having been short of room at a crucial stage. Open to improvement, she can confirm the promise of that effort and go one place better. Cervaro Della Sala has made the frame on both starts to date and rates the lead threat, whilst Say You'll Never and Nad Alshiba Queen are a couple of newcomers to note.

The strongest claims are held by BELLA BISBEE who was easy to back but nevertheless ran a screamer on her Chelmsford debut.

Conditions to suit and in good form on turf; has the widest stall to overcome.
LTO Selection:

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

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

Three and four-year-olds have won all five runnings of this race and that may continue if PHOENIX BEACH makes the most of a return to six furlongs. His last two starts here over shorter have seen him finish second and third respectively, suggesting the time is right to step back up in trip and his sole victory came at this distance. Ecclesiastical may be the best of the older horses after his second here last month and his last win came off just 1lb lower in August, while Bang On The Bell has won here four times and could also get involved.

ECCLESIASTICAL didn't enjoy the rub of the green when runner-up here last time and can go one better now off an unchanged mark. 3-time C&D winner El Hombre heads the list of dangers, although Phoenix Beach, Bang On The Bell and Sarah's Verse need factoring into this competitive handicap too.

A trappy race in which SARAH'S VERSE is marginally preferred to El Hombre and Tartan Skirt.

LTO Selection:

19:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 14f Race Class Flow

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

PHILOS is the only Wolverhampton winner in this line-up, and he could go close if he repeats his recent Chelmsford run when beaten a length into third over a fraction shorter. He races off the same mark now and looks all set to get involved with a clear run, with Ambassador an interesting rival. He has won three times over hurdles since his last run on the Flat and won't lack for stamina. Alioski and Gerrots also warrant consideration but have no margin for error off their current marks.

BEAR CLAWS has started out well for Alastair Ralph and this fair ex-Irish winner is weighted to open his account for his new yard here. Alioski rates the chief threat reverted to this sphere, although both Gerrots and Philos can have a say too in an open handicap.

Bear Claws should have a race in him at this trip but MINI MILDRED (nap) shaped well on her AW debut and can improve for 1m6f.

LTO Selection:

19:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 4) 12f Race Class Flow

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

STONKING was an impressive winner when making all at Newbury in late July and the four-year-old should take some catching if able to dictate the pace once more. Heather Main's charge does have a 7lb rise in the ratings to overcome, though, and that brings the in-form Percy Willis into calculations. The gelded son of Sir Percy looks capable of landing a race of this nature and isn't taken lightly. Way Of Life shouldn't be far behind either.

MISS BLUEBELLE had excuses on her latest outing at Goodwood 6 weeks ago and, boasting a steadily progressive profile previously, she could be worth siding with to get back on the up now tackling this trip for the first time. The in-form Percy Willis and Stonking head up the dangers, with Way of Life another in the mix.

Way Of Life and Percy Willis should be involved but it could be worth chancing MISS BLUEBELLE's stamina now upped to 1m4f.

LTO Selection:

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

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

FAST AFFAIR improved for the step up in trip when opening her account over C&D in late October. A 3lb rise in the handicap for James Fanshawe's filly doesn't appear insurmountable and a double could be on the cards. Sun Festival arrives in fine fettle and he may give the most resistance to the selection, ahead of Coconut Bay, who should appreciate a return to this trip having stayed on into third over an extended mile at this venue last time out.

SUN FESTIVAL registered his third success of the year when striking at Chelmsford in September and did little wrong when finding one too good at the same course next time. He looks the most solid option. Come On John has slipped to a workable mark and, having caught the eye last time, he looks dangerous, while Ermin Street will also be a threat if he puts his best foot forward now tried in cheekpieces following a wind op. Fast Affair completes the shortlist.

The vote goes to SUN FESTIVAL who has form figures of 21313412 since June. Recent C&D winner Fast Affair is feared most.

LTO Selection:

20:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Split Elevens has won here twice, including a C&D success off this mark in January, and although he finished a poor ninth at Yarmouth in September, he seems better suited to the all-weather. Sir Titan is also a C&D winner and finished a solid second here last month, but WILDE AND DANDY is taken to follow up his Chelmsford success under a penalty tonight. He pounced late on under Marco Ghiani that day and if the same tactics are applied here, the drop in class may see him win for the third time.

LAURA'S BREEZE went agonisingly close to opening her account at Kempton last week and, turned out again quickly off the same mark from a good draw and with Billy Loughnane booked, she is taken to get the job done this time. Sir Titan gave it a good shot when runner-up over C&D a fortnight ago and should be on the premises once more. Daafy is of interest back on the all-weather, while last-time-out winners My Boy Jack and, to a lesser extent, Wilde And Dandy are also likely to have a say.

Laura's Breeze holds leading claims but the veteran BRAVE DISPLAY could step forward from an encouraging stable debut.

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.
