Moving on to Saturday we have decent looking evening fixture on All Weather at Wolverhampton ,with the feature race the £19,000 class two Betway Club handicap at 8.45.
9 runners declared for 12f (0-105) handicap on the tapeta at Wolverhampton.Not bad looking class two handicap .The three main contenders are Cohesion ,Mixboy & Castlelyons .
COHESION : 4-Y-0 bay gelding ,winning 3 out 11 .Had some useful form on All Weather last season ,including winning class 2 handicap over C&D at Wolverhampton in March ,off mark 101 .No show in November handicap at Doncaster last time ,though will be suited returning to All Weather .Should be thereabouts ,though no easy task under 9 stone 12lb
MIXBOY : 7-Y-0 grey gelding ,winning 2 out 3 on turf .Fair sort on the jumps,winning three chases in 2016/17 .Lightly raced on flat ,though bolted up in 12f class 4 handicap at Catterick last time .Looks open to improvement on All Weather debut ,though races of 11lb higher mark.Interesting contender .
CASTLELYONS : 5-Y-0 bay gelding ,winning 2 out 8.Lightly raced sort formerly trained in Ireland.Changed hands for 170,000 guineas at Newmarket sales,after winning maiden at Cork in 2015 .Bounced back to form last time ,winning 12f class 3 handicap on the All Weather at Kempton in fast time.Looks fairly treated off 4lb higher mark .
VERDICT : Mixboy will have plenty of supporters after winning handicap by 6L at Catterick last time ,though the handicapper has taken no chances putting him up 11lb for that victory .Odds around 11-4 look short enough for horse unraced on All Weather surfaces .
At the prices CASTLELYONS looks the each-way value ,after winning 12f class 3 handicap at Kempton last time .That looked fair effort in decent time (0.60 slow ) Looks open to further improvement on All Weather after just four starts .Odds around 6-1 look solid value .
