Hotel And Conferencing Wolverhampton Racecourse Handicap

11-time course winner, including three since December; only 1lb higher than when completing a C&D double in February but he has struggled on his last four starts; needs to get back on track.

1m AW winner for Charlie Appleby as a 2yo but he's struggled in five runs for his current yard; now 19lb lower than for his opening mark but he has plenty to prove on this drop back in trip; headgear removed.

13-time winner including four over C&D; has mixed record since his Bath win last September but he ended last year with a creditable fourth at Newcastle (7f, Tapeta); 1lb lower on his return and has possibilities if this sets up for his closing style.

Won at the Galway festival (8.3f, soft) last August but he showed regressive form in his final four runs for Dermot Weld; returns after 171 days off and has something to prove on his AW/stable debut; equipment removed.

0-14 for Harry Eustace but she had some close calls (6f and 7f) along the way; on dangerous mark but she made a low-key start for new yard here (6f) in February and needs to leave that form well behind; first-time blinkers.
