Wolverhampton
Not the best racing on the card here tonight but I think there are a few picks that are worth a bet.
19:50 - Future Reference 2/1 - Win = Won (1/11) & Exzachary 25/1 - Each Way = Placed (2/11)
Future Reference goes into this one a relatively short priced favourite and judging on the field I think this is justifiable, coming from the world re-nowned godolfin stable this S Bin Suroor trained gelding looks well in off his current mark of 72 and has been showing some decent form on the all weather surface of late, most notably finishing 2/9 over tonight's trip of 7f on the AW at Kempton a few runs back off a similar mark and racing in a class higher that night (class 4) back down to a class 5 tonight and I think he looks a good bet to go one better than his previous two runs and take the spoils here tonight. For those looking for a horse with a good chance at a bigger price then Exzachary could well be the one to prove the biggest challenger to the favourite here. Jo hughes' gelding does have a decent run behind her off tonight's mark of 73 when finishing second at kempton over the trip and in the same class race a few runs back and perhaps the biggest tempter to get involved tonight is the fact that she is ridden by 5lb claimer Phillip Prince so essentially Exzachary is running off a career low mark of 68 which I believe gives him a much bigger chance of making the frame here than his 25/1 price tag suggests.
20:20 - Langley 5/1 - Win = Won (1/10) & Art Thief 14/1 - Each Way = Lost (5/10)
Again not the best type of race that your ever going to see but there are still a couple of runners here that are worth a small punt. Langley definitely looks one of the strongest runners and is a nice enough price to have a little punt on the nose here, there is one run of note in a handicap under the same conditions as tonight where he ran off a mark of 60 with a 7lb claimer an ran a creditable third. This is from that I think could transfer well into tonight's race, with this only being a claiming race and now going off a career low mark of 56 and also being ridden by 7lb claimer Oisin Murphy make Langley overpriced in my opinion at 5/1 as id be very surprised if he doesn't go real close. Art Thief is another one here he could be overpriced, although he hasn't enjoyed the best time of late if you go back a few seasons he does has some really strong form at Wolverhampton over tonight's trip. He's been coming down in the official ratings lately and this could perhaps spark some of his old form here tonight.
