Verdict

An Amateur Riders event to kick off the Wolverhampton action, with jockey bookings as enlightening as recent form. The excellent Lisa O'Neill is booked for the mount aboard COMPATRIOT who debuts for shrewd handler Olly Murphy. This horse showed that he handles synthetic surfaces well when trained in Ireland by John Joseph Murphy, despite being restricted to rather inadequate looking trips. By Derby winner Pour Moi, he should relish this step up to 1m4f, and it'll come as no surprise whatsoever if he's a much improved performer tonight. Of the others, Tred Softly merits consideration with James King aboard, whilst Fidaaha isn't totally exposed after making just three previous (poor) starts.
  1. Compatriot
  2. Tred Softly
  3. Fidaaha
