8:30 Wolverhampton Tips

Third-last time and should do better this time around. Drop in distance will make all the difference. Very good jockey on board. A great each-way shot at 17/2. Nap each way.

Course and Distance winner with three victories over this exact 7f trip, he is now operating off a dangerous-looking mark of 58, which is just a 1lb higher than his last win here. His recent fourth-place finish at Southwell was better than the bare result suggests, as he finished strongly from a dodgy position, and the return to his favorite hunting ground should suit him perfectly. With 3lb claimer Jack Callan??'who is riding well atm split Elevens should go close.

A strong contender who has triumphed three times on AW. Reunited with trainer Patrick Morris, he performs exceptionally well at this distance. With his handicap mark softening, he offers great value at 25/1. It's an opportunity that's hard to pass up for an each-way wager.

Not best drawn today, but Gina Mangan knows how to ride this horse. Jump, point, shoot, pillar to post, so the draw shouldn't stop her getting to the front and stretching this field out. Goes close.

Won here last month to break a run of near finishes, with both wins coming at Wolverhampton. Interesting each way at a higher weight.

Placed in 50% of runs on the AW and, despite being yet to win, runs to the odds. So 16/1 EW feels a value bet, and I would be tempted by the place only where available.
