Wolverhampton Racing Tips & Predictions – Tuesday 31st March 2026
Today’s Wolverhampton racing tips cover a tight little two-race card, both for fillies, where the market should do plenty of the heavy lifting. We’ve got small fields, a couple of powerful yards represented, and one race (17:30) where the ratings say it should be straightforward… but the profile of the danger horse means you can’t just switch your brain off. Going, distance and prize money weren’t listed in the race data we’ve been given, so we’re leaning on what we can trust: form, ratings, topspeed and the live odds.
On course trends, our data analysis flags some proper Wolverhampton regulars, even if they don’t run in these two contests. Chifa is the standout horse-to-note here (17 runs, 7 wins), while Knight Of Magic (4 runs, 2 wins) is another who clearly handles the place. Among riders and trainers, Rossa Ryan has a chunky track record (942 rides, 186 winners) and John & Thady Gosden boast a strong local strike (123 runners, 30 winners). Keep those angles in mind as you work through these Wolverhampton racing tips.

17:30 – Bet £10 Get £40 With BetMGM Maiden Fillies’ Stakes (GBB Race)
Race Details: Distance: N/A | Class: 4 | Going: N/A | Prize Money: N/A | Race Type: flat
This is a six-runner maiden, and on paper it revolves around the Dylan Cunha pair. Skip To Victory is the clear ratings top on 89 and she’s also the only one with a proper topspeed figure of note (66), which usually tells you she’s already running to a level that wins this sort of race. Overbudget (85) is the obvious threat, lightly raced with a “22-” profile that screams “she’s been knocking on the door and could still improve.” Behind them, it thins out quickly: Star Marian’s been kept busy without looking like a natural winner (rating 70), while the other trio are rated 62 or lower. Unless tactics get messy, the winner should come from the top two. That makes the win market tight and the each-way angle very specific in a field of six with two places on offer.
Top Selections
WIN – Skip To Victory
Jockey: Luke Morris | Trainer: Dylan Cunha | Form: 523 | Rating: 89 | Draw: N/A | Weight: 128
This is the one I want onside. She’s already laid down the best performance in the field on our numbers: topspeed 66 is a proper standout in a modest maiden, and that usually translates neatly to Wolverhampton where you want a filly who can actually quicken and sustain it. The market agrees, but I’m not put off by 10/11 across the board (best price 10/11). In a race where most have something to prove, she’s the one who looks like she’s simply ready to win. Luke Morris is a good fit for these all-weather maidens too—no messing about, get a position, and make the class edge count.
EACH-WAY – Overbudget
Jockey: Hollie Doyle | Trainer: Dylan Cunha | Form: 22- | Rating: 85 | Draw: N/A | Weight: 128
The value call is the stablemate. She’s available at 2/1 with Bet365 (shorter at Betfair) and, while she’s not top on rating, she’s got the profile of a filly who could easily find the couple of pounds needed. That “22-” suggests she’s been competing better than most of these already, and Hollie Doyle is exactly who you want in a small-field tactical affair: she’ll put her in the right spot and ask at the right time. Each-way in a six-runner race with two places isn’t glamorous, but if you think the top two are clear, it’s a sensible way to play the “I’m not sure which one wins” angle without going mad.
Live Odds Comparison
| Horse | Bet365 | Betfair | Betfred | Paddy Power | SkyBet | Best odds |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Skip To Victory | 10/11 | 10/11 | 10/11 | 10/11 | 10/11 | 10/11 (bet365) |
| Overbudget | 2/1 | 15/8 | 2/1 | 2/1 | 2/1 | 2/1 (bet365) |
| Ring Of Diamonds | 11/2 | 4/1 | 5/1 | 9/2 | 4/1 | 11/2 (bet365) |
| Zoulette | 16/1 | 14/1 | 14/1 | 14/1 | 12/1 | 16/1 (bet365) |
| Star Marian | 16/1 | 16/1 | 16/1 | 16/1 | 14/1 | 16/1 (bet365) |
| Button It | 50/1 | 40/1 | 50/1 | 50/1 | 50/1 | 50/1 (bet365) |
Betting Strategy
Keep it clean. Skip To Victory is the straight win bet at 10/11 if you’re playing these Wolverhampton racing tips sensibly. If you want a second bullet without taking a wild swing, Overbudget each-way makes sense given two places, and she’s a solid 2/1 in spots. The rest look booked for minor roles on what they’ve shown and what they’re rated.

18:00 – BetMGM Supports Safer Gambling Fillies’ Restricted Novice Stakes (Bands B, C and D) (GBB Race)
Race Details: Distance: N/A | Class: 4 | Going: N/A | Prize Money: N/A | Race Type: flat
Four runners, so we don’t overcomplicate it: it’s a win-only race from a betting perspective and you’re trying to answer one question—can anything realistically trouble the favourite? Lizzana sets a strong standard on our data analysis with a 96 rating and a hefty topspeed of 83, miles clear of the one other filly with an established figure, Ammoony (rating 77, no topspeed listed). The newcomers Sayidah Aleen and Ticker Tape have no form or ratings in the provided data, so you’re taking a leap of faith with them. The market has them respected—Ticker Tape is second favourite—but without numbers you’re guessing. In a novice, you can get turned over by an unexposed Gosden type, but you need a reason. On this evidence, the favourite is hard to oppose.
Top Selections
WIN – Lizzana
Jockey: Marco Ghiani | Trainer: Marco Botti | Form: 21- | Rating: 96 | Draw: N/A | Weight: 128
I’m not trying to be clever in a four-runner novice: Lizzana rates the clear pick and the numbers back it up. A 96 rating and topspeed 83 is a serious level for this grade, and it’s the kind of figure that usually wins regardless of how the race is run. You can get 10/11 with Paddy Power (with most others going 4/6), and that’s the angle—shop around because the difference matters on shorties. Marco Botti isn’t a trainer I want to be opposing when he’s already got the form in the book, and Marco Ghiani is more than capable of keeping it simple: sit handy, press the button, and let the class do the talking.
Live Odds Comparison
| Horse | Bet365 | Betfair | Betfred | Paddy Power | SkyBet | Best odds |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lizzana | 4/5 | 4/6 | 4/6 | 10/11 | 4/6 | 10/11 (paddypower) |
| Ticker Tape | 5/2 | 9/4 | 9/4 | 2/1 | 9/4 | 5/2 (bet365) |
| Sayidah Aleen | 7/1 | 6/1 | 13/2 | 11/2 | 13/2 | 7/1 (bet365) |
| Ammoony | 15/2 | 13/2 | 7/1 | 13/2 | 13/2 | 15/2 (bet365) |
Betting Strategy
In a four-runner race there’s no each-way safety net, so it’s Lizzana to win or you leave it alone. Take the standout 10/11 with Paddy Power rather than swallowing 4/6 elsewhere. If you’re playing forecasts, the market says Ticker Tape is the most likely to chase her home, but our data can’t quantify that one—so keep stakes sensible.

Summary & best bets
This is a mini-card, so the best approach is disciplined staking rather than trying to force “action” for the sake of it. The 17:30 looks like a two-horse race on our data analysis, with Skip To Victory holding the strongest claims on both rating (89) and topspeed (66). She’s short enough, yes, but it’s a race where most rivals simply haven’t shown the raw ability to trouble her. The 18:00 is even more straightforward: Lizzana is miles clear on rating (96) and topspeed (83), and in a four-runner novice you want the filly who’s already proven she can run a serious number. That’s the spine of today’s Wolverhampton racing tips.
NAP of the Day: Skip To Victory (17:30) – WIN
Banker: Lizzana (18:00) – WIN (take 10/11 with Paddy Power if you can)
Best Value Bet: Overbudget (17:30) – EACH-WAY at 2/1 with Bet365 (two places)
Each-Way Special: Overbudget (17:30) – EACH-WAY (field size makes it a pragmatic rather than glamorous play)
