8:30 Wolverhampton Tips

Placed a total of five times so far this year. Sixth in a Kempton handicap last time despite racing very wide. Decent chance today.

This filly looks well handicapped off a mark of 60. I was very impressed with her strong finish in her last race, where she finished 3rd and showed plenty of signs that she is better than a 60-rated horse. She will have no issues on the AW, as she came 2nd on the AW as a 2yo. More improvement to come today and a big run is expected.

Runner-up at Lingfield last month but ran no race on turf after that. Wears first-time blinkers today and is not without a chance.

Daughter of Starspangledbanner & Bounce ( Dam's sire Bahamian Bounty ) who arrives here to make her handicap debut on a very attractive mark of 57 which in my point of view underestimates her and she certainly has the scope for better now venturing down the handicap route with plenty of improvement and progress most certainly due on the cards also stepping up in trip for this handicap bow that most certainly being a good move by her connections as this step up in trip can show her to much better effect and a good analysis of this Download The Racecourse App Raceday Ready Maiden Class 6 handicap clearly shows this a very suitable first assignment in handicap company for Starborn who must be taken extremely seriously handily drawn coming out of gate 1 here jockey Cieren Fallon takes the ride and can give Starborn the perfect ride here at Wolverhampton expect to see this chestnut thundering home with real purpose

Seconds Count looks worth an each-way glance in the 8:30 at Wolverhampton. She showed enough when sixth over this course and distance last time and now has the inside draw to help secure a good early position. If she can build on that latest run, she's capable of outrunning her odds and getting involved at the finish

Esdaile had three runs within the space of two weeks last month, all on turf at big priced and not surprisingly she only beat three rivals in those three runs. Making handicap and AW debut tonight and at this lower level, she should be capable of an improved run. Last time out, she finished last of five runners but the other four were rated around a stone better, so she had little chance of winning,tonight she runs in a 0-60 maiden handicap and gets a 9lb WFA allowance off the olderrunners.

Ernie McCrew has shown his best form on the AW, running really well last time without the assistance of a claimer. He has one booked today, claiming 7 lb, which could prove huge here.
