16:57 – Free Bets On attheraces.com EBF Fillies’ Novice Stakes (GBB Race)
Race Details: 5f | Class 4 | Going: Standard (Tapeta) | | flat
This looks a tight little 2yo fillies’ novice on paper, but the market has made it fairly plain that Roxa Love is the one they all have to beat. George Boughey’s filly already has a win to her name and arrives with the most obviously progressive profile in the field, while Rhodes Runner brings the best body of form and the highest rating after repeatedly keeping better company than most of these. Kerry Grey is the interesting unknown on debut for Richard Hughes, especially with Billy Loughnane booked, but she does have to be useful to trouble the principals first time up. Behind them, Rogue Dakota has shown a bit, whereas the others need a sizeable jump. Not a deep race, and it may simply come down to proven ability versus untapped potential.
Top Selections
1. Roxa Love – 4/6 with Bet365
Jockey: Rowan Scott | Trainer: George Boughey | Form: 31 | Rating: 79 | Topspeed:
Roxa Love is short, but she’s short for a reason. That 3-1 profile tells you she learned from her debut and did the job properly next time, and a mark of 79 sets a solid standard against mostly unexposed or limited rivals. Boughey’s juveniles are often well drilled for these sharp sprint assignments and this looks a suitable spot to follow up. She has race fitness, winning form and a fair draw in stall 4, which is enough to make her very hard to oppose. At 4/6 you’re not stealing anything, but she still looks the likeliest winner by some margin in a race lacking depth. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Rhodes Runner – 4/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Edward Greatrex | Trainer: Ralph Beckett | Form: 432464 | Rating: 83 | Topspeed: 69
Rhodes Runner is becoming expensive to follow if you’ve been with her all summer, but this is not the deepest novice she’s contested and her form gives her obvious each-way appeal. An official rating of 83 is the best in the line-up and that Topspeed figure of 69 is another reminder that she has achieved more on the clock than most of these. The slight concern is that she’s had plenty of chances and lacks the winning instinct of the favourite, but dropping into this sort of race after facing stronger opposition could be the key. At 4/1, she makes more appeal as the percentage play for a place than as a win-only swing. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Keep it simple here. Roxa Love is the win bet and looks the most likely scorer on what she has already shown. For those wanting a bit more value, Rhodes Runner is the each-way option in a seven-runner field, with her proven level giving her strong place claims. Kerry Grey is the danger if she’s above average first time out, but debutantes at short enough prices can be left alone.

17:30 – Cavani Sartorial Nursery Handicap
Race Details: 5f | Class 6 | Going: Standard (Tapeta) | | flat
This looks a proper nursery rather than a penalty kick, with several of these arriving off solid placed efforts and not much between the principals on paper. Lauralynn sets the standard on consistency and a mark of 72, while Crystal Kraken has been knocking loudly at the door and should be well suited by another sharp 5f test. Lady Of Hay is less exposed than most after only three starts, and Cavan Lady has shown enough in maiden company to suggest a race like this is within range if handling the wide draw. Down the weights, Le Ciel Noble is interesting if the handicapper has given him a chance. It is competitive rather than classy, and in a race of this nature, track position and how they handle Wolverhampton’s Tapeta could easily prove decisive.
Top Selections
1. Crystal Kraken – 4/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Jack Doughty | Trainer: Dylan Cunha | Form: 735223 | Rating: 71 | Topspeed: 48
Crystal Kraken is the one I want on side because he brings the most persuasive recent handicap profile into the race. He has been edging towards a win rather than backing up, and that sequence of placed efforts suggests he is running right to his mark. Stall 10 is not ideal over a bare 5f here, but he has enough early pace in his form to get involved, and this doesn’t look any deeper than the races he has been contesting. At 4/1 he is not a gift, but he is solid in a field where some of the others still have questions to answer. He holds strong claims of finally getting his head in front.
Bet: WIN
2. Le Ciel Noble – 18/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Edward Greatrex | Trainer: David Evans | Form: 654 | Rating: 71 | Topspeed:
Le Ciel Noble is the each-way play at a price because he is one of the more intriguing handicap newcomers in the field. He has not shown enough yet to be trusted blindly, but there was at least a hint of promise in those three qualifying runs and David Evans is well used to finding the right opening for this type. The low weight of 119 could be a real asset in what is not an especially strong Class 6 nursery, and a handy draw in 4 only adds to the appeal. Available at 18/1, he looks the value option if taking a step forward now switched into a handicap for the first time.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Crystal Kraken is the straightforward win bet given his reliable recent profile and the likelihood that he will give you a run for your money again. For an each-way punt, Le Ciel Noble makes appeal as a lightly raced type with a feather weight and possible improvement to come in nursery company. Lauralynn is the obvious danger on consistency, while Lady Of Hay is the unexposed one if the market speaks in her favour.

18:00 – Free Bets On attheraces.com Restricted Maiden Stakes (Band D) (GBB Race)
Race Details: 6f | Class 5 | Going: Standard (Tapeta) | | flat
This looks a fairly ordinary restricted maiden on paper and, to be blunt, Pon Pon Dalia sets the standard by a clear margin. Marco Botti’s filly has already shown useful form in two starts, posted the best Topspeed figure in the field and now drops into a race where most of the opposition are either limited or still learning. Langdale Lass is the obvious one to chase her home after showing promise in better company, while Anna Belardo has at least got a bit more experience than some of these and could nick a place if stepping forward again. The rest need improvement, with newcomers and lightly raced types like Falah Glory and Cruzcampo Cai harder to weigh up. Not a deep race, and the favourite will take some stopping.
Top Selections
1. Pon Pon Dalia – 8/13 with Bet365
Jockey: Billy Loughnane | Trainer: Marco Botti | Form: 52 | Rating: 79 | Topspeed: 62
She is the standout on what we know so far. That runner-up effort last time built nicely on her debut fifth, and an official mark of 79 already gives her a healthy edge over the rest of this field. The Topspeed figure of 62 is miles clear of anything else here as well, which matters in a small-field 6f race round Wolverhampton where straightforward speed usually gets you a long way. Billy Loughnane is an eye-catching booking and Botti’s filly looks the most professional, the most proven and probably the most likely improver too. At 8/13 she is no secret, but she is still hard to oppose.
Bet: WIN
2. Anna Belardo – 12/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Gina Mangan | Trainer: Dr Richard Newland | Form: 3675 | Rating: 63 | Topspeed: 28
The value angle may be Anna Belardo, who is hardly solid but has at least been around the block a little more than several of these. Her form figures do not scream winner, yet she has shown enough in four runs to think a restricted maiden of this nature is more suitable than some of the assignments she has been tackling. A mark of 63 leaves her with ground to make up on the principals, but in a seven-runner race you do not need to be a star to hit the frame, and 12/1 looks fair if she can travel a bit sweeter on Tapeta. She makes more each-way appeal than most of the outsiders.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Pon Pon Dalia is the win play and the one with the fewest questions to answer. She sets the form standard and should be taking this if running to either of her first two efforts. For an each-way punt, Anna Belardo makes more appeal than the bigger-priced rivals in a race lacking depth. Langdale Lass is the obvious danger if bouncing back from her last run.

18:30 – Follow @attheraces On Instagram Handicap (GBBPlus Race)
Race Details: 1m 5f | Class 4 | Going: Standard (Tapeta) | | flat
This is only a four-runner handicap, but it is a tidy little contest rather than a gimme. The three-year-olds dominate the market and with good reason, as Last Verse, Brunhilde and Level Look all bring progressive profiles into a race where tactics could be crucial. Level Look has the highest mark in the field and comes here off a slightly disappointing sixth, while Brunhilde arrives on the back of a breakthrough win and still looks open to more progress. Last Verse is another last-time-out winner and has already shown he can find plenty off the bridle. Robusto has the benefit of experience and comes here in winning form too, but he gives weight away all round and may find the younger legs too sharp if this turns tactical. Tricky enough, but not unfathomable.
Top Selections
1. Brunhilde – 5/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Billy Loughnane | Trainer: George Boughey | Form: 4221 | Rating: 80 | Topspeed: 55
Brunhilde gets the nod because she still looks the one with a bit more upside than her current mark suggests. That form string of 4221 tells the story of a filly steadily learning her job before getting her head in front last time, and George Boughey’s three-year-olds are often worth following once they start putting it together. Billy Loughnane is an eye-catching booking around here too, especially in a race where track position will matter. She doesn’t have to improve bundles to win this, merely a little, and at 5/2 with Bet365 she appeals as the value against rivals who may be a shade more exposed than the market implies. Bet: WIN
Betting Strategy
In a race this small, keep it simple: Brunhilde is the win play. She looks progressive, is fairly treated off 80 and should get a good tactical ride from Billy Loughnane. Last Verse is the obvious danger after his latest success, while Level Look is respected on raw ability but has less margin for error off top rating in this field.

19:00 – Call 01902 390016 To Name A Race Handicap
Race Details: 1m | Class 6 | Going: Standard (Tapeta) | | flat
This is a low-grade 3yo handicap but it does not look a hopeless one, with a few arriving on the back of respectable efforts and several of the more obvious players drawn well enough to get involved. Ten Sixty Six sets the standard on recent form after finishing runner-up last time and he has the services of Daniel Tudhope, while Yazoo comes here lightly raced and shaped as though a race of this nature is within reach when fourth on her handicap debut. Miss Mambo has been knocking on the door and is another with a solid chance, though she is no bargain in a race where plenty can be said for a few at double-figure prices. Crown The Future and Marveling are the sort who could outrun their odds, so this feels competitive rather than deep.
Top Selections
1. Ten Sixty Six – 3/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Daniel Tudhope | Trainer: David O’Meara | Form: 794652 | Rating: 67 | Topspeed:
He is hardly bombproof, but this looks a very fair opening and his recent second stands out in the context of a Class 6 like this. That effort suggested he is ready to cash in off 67, and unlike some of these he is at least coming here with his head above water rather than trying to revive badly faded form. Stall 5 is fine, Tudhope is an eye-catching booking at this level, and O’Meara runners are always worth noting when they start to string a bit of consistency together. At 3/1 he is not a gift, but he is the one with the clearest, most solid claims. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Crown The Future – 12/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Jack Doughty | Trainer: Tony Carroll | Form: 437045 | Rating: 65 | Topspeed: 55
He is the each-way play in a race where a lot of these have questions to answer, because his best bits of form give him a squeak and his draw in 3 could be handy around here. The bare result last time does not leap off the page, but he has shown enough earlier in the summer to think a race of this nature is not beyond him, and that topspeed figure of 55 is one of the more respectable numbers in the field. Tony Carroll’s runners are often seen to better effect in these ordinary handicaps, and 12/1 looks big enough if he can get a smooth trip from a good slot. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Ten Sixty Six is the straightforward win play after that latest second and makes most appeal as the solid option. For an each-way punt, Crown The Future looks overpriced given his draw, workable mark and ability to be competitive in a race no stronger than this. Miss Mambo and Yazoo are the obvious dangers, with Yazoo especially interesting from stall 1.

19:30 – Cavani Signature Style Handicap
Race Details: 1m 1f | Class 6 | Going: Standard (Tapeta) | | flat
This looks a perfectly ordinary three-year-old Class 6 on paper, but it is still a race with a clear centre of gravity. Midnight Media arrives in cracking order after figures of 921212 and sets the standard on both recent consistency and a mark of 79. The Anthony Gover is the obvious threat after a solid second last time and he brings the best Topspeed figure in the field, while Evening Fades has the look of one still capable of winning a race of this nature for a powerful yard. Behind those, plenty have bits and pieces of form without looking especially straightforward. In a 13-runner handicap, draw and track position will matter, but this is not an impossible puzzle: the favourite is solid, and the each-way angle may sit with one at a slightly bigger price.
Top Selections
1. Midnight Media – 6/4 with Bet365
Jockey: Lewis Edmunds | Trainer: William Muir & Chris Grassick | Form: 921212 | Rating: 79 | Topspeed: 46
He is short enough, but sometimes the obvious answer is the right one. Midnight Media has done very little wrong in recent starts, winning twice and filling the runner-up spot three times in his last five runs, and that sort of reliability counts for plenty in a race where several rivals are still guessing games. A mark of 79 asks a question, but he is holding his form well and his draw in 4 should help him get a sensible trip around here. At 6/4 he is hardly under the radar, yet he looks the runner with the fewest holes and is hard to oppose in this company. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Evening Fades – 13/2 with Paddy Power
Jockey: Cieren Fallon | Trainer: William Haggas | Form: -64423 | Rating: 71 | Topspeed: 62
Evening Fades makes plenty of each-way appeal in a race where the favourite may prove tough to beat but the places are very much up for grabs. His recent form has a solid look for this level, especially the last two efforts when second and third, and that Topspeed mark of 62 stands out favourably in this field. He is not thrown in off 71, but he does not need to improve much to be seriously competitive in a Class 6 like this. The outside draw is not ideal, though Cieren Fallon is the sort to make a plan early, and 13/2 looks fair enough for a runner from a yard you always respect in this grade. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Midnight Media is the straightforward win play because he brings the strongest and most dependable recent profile. For an each-way punt, Evening Fades looks the value with four places on offer and arrives here in decent nick. The Anthony Gover is the obvious danger after his latest second and strong Topspeed figure, while Horwich is another not entirely dismissed if building on that recent runner-up effort.

20:00 – attheraces.com/marketmovers Handicap
Race Details: 1m | Class 4 | Going: Standard (Tapeta) | | flat
This is a proper Wolverhampton mile handicap rather than a race full of obvious angles, and that usually means siding with the runner most likely to get the track and pace scenario right. Dixieland Blues heads the market for the Crisfords after ending last season with a win, but he does come here off a quiet reappearance and is asked to concede weight all round. Knights Gold arrives in much sharper nick after finally getting his head in front, while Helm Rock and Londoner look the type to run their usual honest races without necessarily having much in hand. Studious and Commander Of Life are lurkers off lighter weights, and Newfangled is interesting from stall 1 if able to use the rail. Tricky, competitive, but not impossible.
Top Selections
1. Knights Gold – 9/2 with Bet365
Jockey: Billy Loughnane | Trainer: Tom Ward | Form: 933521 | Rating: 97 | Topspeed:
Knights Gold makes plenty of appeal in a race where several have chances but few arrive with his momentum. That recent 933521 sequence suggests a horse knocking firmly on the door before finally going through it, and he still looks the progressive sort in this field. Billy Loughnane is exactly the rider you want around Wolverhampton when tactics matter, and stall 10 is not ideal but it is workable if he can slot in early. At 9/2 with Bet365, he is no giveaway, but he looks the runner with the strongest combination of current form and upside in a race full of exposed handicappers. Bet: WIN
Bet: WIN
2. Newfangled – 14/1 with Paddy Power
Jockey: Rowan Scott | Trainer: Jonathan Portman | Form: 513646 | Rating: 97 | Topspeed: 61
Newfangled is the each-way play because the draw gives him a chance to outrun his price. Stall 1 is a major asset over this mile if Rowan Scott can hold a handy position, and off just 122 he is dangerously well treated on the weights in a race where plenty are clustered around similar marks. His recent form figures do not scream consistency, but they also explain why we are getting 14/1 with Paddy Power rather than single-figure odds. In these big-field Tapeta handicaps, that kind of profile can be exactly what you want for an each-way punt. He is not bombproof, but he is overpriced. Bet: EACH-WAY
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Knights Gold is the win bet because he arrives here in the best recent form and still looks to have a bit more to offer than some of these seasoned rivals. Newfangled is the each-way alternative at a much bigger price, with stall 1 and a feather weight making him very interesting. Dixieland Blues is the obvious danger if bouncing back, while Helm Rock is another solid place contender.

20:30 – Get The Inside Track With raceday-ready.com Handicap
Race Details: 5f | Class 5 | Going: Standard (Tapeta) | | flat
This looks a proper Wolverhampton sprint handicap rather than a race full of lurking stars, but it is still a competitive little heat with several arriving in form. Fiorella Princess has been knocking loudly on the door and sets a fair standard on recent placed efforts, while Whizzy Dizzy and Blue Force both come here off wins and still look capable of being involved despite the inevitable rise in expectations. La Belle Forest is interesting dropped in at the foot of the weights, and General Assembly has enough raw speed figures to make a case if things fall right. The non-runner coming out trims it up slightly, but this is still a tricky puzzle where track position and the ability to travel strongly over a sharp 5f should decide it.
Top Selections
1. Fiorella Princess – 11/4 with Bet365
Jockey: Billy Loughnane | Trainer: Robert Cowell | Form: 253262 | Rating: 79 | Topspeed: 60
Fiorella Princess is becoming expensive to follow if you keep backing seconds, but the flip side is that she is running to a solid level time after time and this does not look any deeper than the races she has been contesting. Robert Cowell’s sprinters are rarely hanging about when they hit form and Billy Loughnane is a good rider to have in one of these sharp Tapeta dashes. She carries top weight off 79, which tells its own story, and her recent sequence suggests she is holding her form better than most of these. At 11/4 she is not a gift, but she is still the percentage call.
Bet: WIN
2. La Belle Forest – 12/1 with Bet365
Jockey: Luke Morris | Trainer: Archie Watson | Form: -17664 | Rating: 78 | Topspeed: 68
La Belle Forest makes plenty of each-way appeal from a handy low draw and looks a bit more interesting than her bare form figures might suggest. She is only three, gets in here off 130, and that topspeed figure of 68 says she has enough pace to live with this lot if Luke Morris can get her rolling early. Archie Watson’s runners are always worth a second look in all-weather sprints, and this filly has been competing from marks that leave her dangerous in a Class 5 if things click. With the market focused on the obvious pair at the top, 12/1 looks fair for an each-way punt.
Bet: EACH-WAY
Betting Strategy
Fiorella Princess is the sensible win play given how consistently she has been hitting the frame and this looks a very workable assignment. For an each-way alternative, La Belle Forest appeals at a double-figure price from a good draw and a nice racing weight. Blue Force and Whizzy Dizzy are the obvious dangers after recent wins, while The Flying Seagull is not one to dismiss if the market speaks in his favour.
