Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Caraway is our selection at Wolverhampton, and the case rests on a progressive profile that makes her worth preferring over the top-rated Bint Al Daar, who is only five pounds better on our figures. At 70 she sits right in the thick of a tight contest over the twelve furlongs, and a filly still improving can overturn that narrow deficit. Bint Al Daar (75) is the obvious danger, with Twilight Moon (72) and Romantic Spirit (71) also close enough to play a part, so this is far from a gift. Even so, Caraway's upward trajectory gives her the edge, and she is the pick.

Twilight Moon is fit after just 12 days off and has run over today's trip and going, while a third three starts back and a fourth two runs ago show she's been competitive; our rating of 72 ranks her second of nine. The risk is that she's yet to win in her last six and was unplaced last time.

Romantic Spirit steps up from a second last time out, her best recent effort after three straight sevenths before that, and she has run over today's trip and going. Yet to win in her last five, she returns after 61 days off, which is the main risk under 139 lb.

Joanna Mason
Kevin & Lauren Frost 0/14
Quick back-out after 12 days is a plus for fitness, and she has run over today's trip and going before, while our rating of 75 ranks her top of nine; the risk is a winless record in her last six, with a seventh last time out.

Runner-up in each of his last two starts and fresh from a run 11 days ago, Jodhpur Blue is in good heart, and he has run over today's trip and going. Yet to win in his last six, he's ranked sixth of nine by our rating and carries 135 lb.

Barachiel bounced back with a second last time out only seven days ago, but he is winless in his last four and finished fifth and sixth twice before that, so he is hard to fancy. He has run over today's trip and going, and our rating ranks him seventh of nine.

Ottoman showed up well with a second last time out, but he is back after just one day and has won only once in his last six, with a fourth and an unseated rider since. Carrying 132 lb, he has run over today's trip and going, yet our figures rank him eighth of nine.

William Haggas 6/52
Caraway is our selection on profile: a second last time out, a win two starts back and a podium finish in five of her last six, last seen just 11 days ago, with experience of today's trip and going. Fourth-ranked on our figures is the only caveat, and 132 lb is no small burden.

Fourth last time out and fresh from a 15-day break, Man of Desert has run over today's going, and our rating of 68 sits above his official 59; yet he is winless in his last six, with three sevenths in that run and only a second six starts back to shout about.

Glamerous is hard to fancy: she's winless in her last three, finishing fifth, fourth and sixth, and returns after a 246-day break. She has run over today's trip and runs off 52, but our figures rank her last of nine.
