Race & Rest - Wolverhampton Holiday Inn Handicap

(8)

Methgal^b,t⁶^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 10-3| J: S M Levey| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 63| D

5/6

Found improvement when winning 11-runner handicap at Kempton (6f) 6 days ago, kept up to work. Looks well-in under a 5-lb penalty and holds leading claims on tapeta debut.

Form: 721221

Dark Alley^p³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: L Morris| T: W Greatrex| OR: 65| D

25/1

Bath maiden winner (6f) last summer but been a mixed 2026 campaign and arrives on back of a poor Goodwood run. Others more convincing.

Form: 4-57927

(4)

Von Krolock^v¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Christian Howarth⁽³⁾| T: James Owen| OR: 62| CD

16/1

Found improvement when winning 8-runner handicap at Lingfield (6f) last month. Well below that level at Southwell since but can't be discounted here. Visor back on.

Form: 316210

(6)

Go Lockers Go^h²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: H Crouch| T: M L W Bell| OR: 64| D

14/1

Enjoyed a fine run of form in 3-y-o handicaps in the first half of this year. Back on his latest winning mark after blowing the start at Lingfield last time and return of usual hood could help.

Form: 225837

(5)

Rye^p²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Billy Loughnane| T: A W Carroll| OR: 61| CD

8/1

Belatedly off the mark when narrowly taking 11-runner handicap over C&D 28 days ago. 3 lb rise fair and has the assistance of Billy Loughnane.

Form: 324261

Court Alert^b²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: C Lee| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 63

14/1

Still looking for first success and was never going (bumped early on) in handicap at Leicester 21 days ago. Work to do on tapeta debut. Blinkers back on.

Form: 843279

(2)

Molly Mac¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Cieren Fallon| T: M Fenton| OR: 63| D

11/2

Finally off the mark at Nottingham in July and confirmed that improvement when following up at Newmarket (6f) 2 weeks later. Not at same level more recently but remains feasibly treated.

Form: 261155

Cosmic Clarets^v⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Tyler Heard| T: S Dixon| OR: 62

12/1

Fair maiden for Richard & Peter Fahey and ran up to best, on debut for new yard, when second of 10 in handicap over C&D 8 days ago. Can race off same mark here and holds solid claims.

Form: 0-22662

(7)

Trust Sergei⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Jonny Peate| T: G Hanmer| OR: 58| CD

15/2

Overcame a wide draw when narrowly recording a second C&D success of the season here earlier this month. Not disgraced in higher grade here since and can make presence felt again.

Form: 394215

Mister Moet^p⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Mikkel Mortensen⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 52| D

100/1

Successful twice on all-weather at Lingfield during early part of 2026 but well below par more recently.

Form: 445790

(11)

Hopjes^b,t³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 8-10| J: Rose Dawes⁽³⁾| T: H Dickin| OR: 47

66/1

Yet to score on Flat or over hurdles and recent efforts over the obstacles have offered little encouragement. Blinkers back on.

Form: 7-76635

(1)

Saeculamation⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: J P Sullivan| T: J Mackie| OR: 46| D

16/1

Kept busy and turned in best effort of 2026 for George Margarson when very good second of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 43 days ago, clear of rest. Since joined new yard and must enter calculations.

Form: 466832

Forecasts

Methgal (3/1), Rye (9/2), Saeculamation (5/1), Cosmic Clarets (6/1), Trust Sergei (15/2), Molly Mac (8/1), Von Krolock (12/1), Dark Alley (16/1), Court Alert (20/1), Go Lockers Go (20/1), Mister Moet (33/1), Hopjes (50/1)

METHGAL advanced his form significantly when making all at Kempton last week and a 5-lb penalty may not be enough to prevent the follow up here. Rye and Cosmic Clarets head the list of dangers.
