Just four go to post for this handicap on the all-weather at Wolverhampton, so who do Timeform rate? Read on...
Just four are declared for this handicap over an extended mile at Dunstall Park. Clear at the top of the ratings for the in-form Mark Johnston yard is Petrovsky.
Petrovsky: Off the mark at third time of asking in pretty decent maiden at Kempton last time, making all and merely nudged out to beat promising Onemix by three-quarters of a length. Type to do even better still in handicaps and looks the one to beat.
Luckier: Progressive and coped well with drop back to 7f when winning at Lingfield last time. That form not mounting to much but no doubt she's up to making her mark in handicaps and another who can't be ruled out here with further progress looking forthcoming,
Inthawain: Never really got going on turf for Mick Channon last term and sold for 3,000gns at October sales. New trainer has been having good time of it on all-weather this winter but looks on a stiff mark on her first start for nearly three months.
Helpmeronda: Just modest form so far and disappointing in couple of nurseries last season. Further step up in trip will suit but bit to prove in this company and market likely to be best guide as regards her chances.
