8/1
Has not had a lot of racing for an 11-year-old and has won five times on the level as well as winning a race over hurdles. A winner at 12/1 over a similar trip at Newcastle in March, he was soundly beaten in a better race there last time but is back down in class this evening and is a leading player.

3/1
Successful on four occasions, winning over 1m4f on this track back in November 2014. A runaway winner over 2m at Beverley last August for his most recent victory, he missed the break on his seasonal bow at Chester and is back up in trip this evening.

6/5
Four of his six Flat wins have been on the AW and he has been in excellent form so far this season, rattling off an impressive hat-trick of wins at the start of the 2017 campaign. He dead-heated with Denmead over this course and distance but was unable to complete the four-timer at Nottingham. Solid claims again tonight.

8/1
She managed to record four victories last season, including one over course and distance last August when she cruised home to win hard held by 1L from Dovils Date. Never a factor here on her recent return, she will be a big player here if returning to her very best.

5/1
Irish raider has four wins to her name, landing three successive races here at Wolverhampton, the latest a hugely impressive win over this course and distance in February 2016. Not beaten far over 2m at Dundalk latest at odds of 50/1, she can run a big race.

Forecasts

Masterson (6/5), Gabrial's Star (3/1), Little Stampy (5/1), Lady Makfi (8/1), Zakatal (8/1)

Verdict

LITTLE STAMPY once recorded three successive victories here at Wolverhampton, including an impressive performance over the course and distance, and this Irish raider can regain the winning thread tonight having belied odds of 50/1 with a superb effort last time out. Masterson began the season with three straight wins and although he was unable to land the four-timer at Nottingham, he could go very close here. All five of the runners have fair claims and Lady Makfi will have come on a bundle from her recent return to action.
