Risque is simply too risky at Wolverhampton
15:15 Wolverhampton - Risque Heights (Forecast 2.5)
Today's race is the 15:15 at Wolverhampton, it's a class 4 handicap over 1 1/2 miles. Risque Heights is forecast favourite trained by G A Butler and ridden by Steve Drowne.
Risque Heights won over 10 furlongs from a mark of 78 at Lingfield last time. Both of his career wins came at Lingfield and the track suits his hold-up style of racing. He is unlikely to be as effective at Wolverhampton and was third from a mark of 70 on his only previous course run.
Raised 6 lbs by the handicapper, this shaky-looking racehorse is likely to struggle today.
Stepping up in trip today to 1 1/2 miles for the first time, Risque Heights is not guaranteed to stay and has to prove his effectiveness over this trip.
It's a competitive handicap and all of the other runners hold claims so I will be laying the awful Risque Heights.
Today's lay finished third
