Hat-trick seeking Wapping can make the headlines

Newmarket: David Milnes

Wapping (7.15 Brighton, nap)

Fancied to complete the hat-trick for the in-form David Lanigan despite top weight. Blew out well for this on the watered gallop at the weekend.

Others to follow
Pontefract 4.10 Walton Street, 5.10 Canberra Cliffs.
Wolverhampton 1.55 Zig Zag Girl, 2.25 Arctic Angel, 2.55 Oswald, 3.25 Oakley Pride, 3.55 Kulper Belt, 4.25 The Yellow Bus, 4.55 Glittering Jewel, 5.25 Stepney.

Lambourn: James Burn

Black Truffle(3.55 Wolverhampton, nap)

Goes well here and returned to form with a fine course-and-distance second last time. Remains on same mark and dangerous if building on that.

Others to follow
Brighton 5.45 Jaalboot, 6.45 One Big Surprise, 7.15 General Hazard, 7.45 Jack Blane, 8.45 Delfie Lane.
Pontefract 2.40 Lightoller, 3.10 Pirouette.

Wolverhampton 1.55 Tooty Fruitti, 5.25 Smiley Bagel.

North: Colin Russell

Bay Station (2.40 Pontefract, nap)

Lightly raced three-year-old who ran her best race of the year last time at Redcar. Further progress on the cards and this stiffer track should suit.

Others to follow
Brighton 6.45 The Stalking Moon, 7.45 Kelpie Spirit.
Pontefract 2.10 Collingham Park, 3.10 Lincoln Rocks, 3.40 Avon Breeze, 4.10 Broadway Dreams, 4.40 Ching Ching Lol, 5.10 Exclusive Waters.

West Country: Tim Mitchell

Lady Of Longstone (8.05 Uttoxeter, nap)

Fancied to go close after an encouraging return from a break. Now 8lb below her last winning mark and Michael Heard takes off a further 5lb.

Others to follow
Uttoxeter 6.35 Midnight Gypsy, 9.05 Pension Madness.
Wolverhampton 4.25 Here’s Two.

Racing Post Ratings: Simon Turner

Royal Reserve (5.25 Wolverhampton, nap)

Yet to fire since bought out of Willie Muir’s stable last year, but has become well handicapped and worth chancing on his first start for David O’Meara.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Dawn Of Hope (3.10 Pontefract)

Not disgraced in a couple of Group races recently. Roger Varian’s filly is favoured by the figures and can take advantage of this easier opportunity.

Longshot: Ed Quigley

Elusivity (2.25 Wolverhampton)

Inconsistent, but has won at this venue and is capable of going well.

Ireland: Tony O’Hehir

Ard Na Carraig(6.55 Roscommon)

Ran well in a couple of handicaps on the Flat at Leopardstown last month and, with stamina appearing his forte, can get off the mark over hurdles.
