Through The Card: Wolverhampton, Friday 7 August

16:15 - A thrice-raced maiden for William Haggas, REIMS (1) has a fairly appealing pedigree and did show signs of ability on her debut run back in October. She makes her handicap debut for the in-from stable of Daniel and Claire Kubler, and there is every chance her opening mark could underestimate her. KAAFY (7) remains a maiden after 18 attempts but he sets the standard, particularly judged on his latest effort, when second past the post at Catterick last time (subsequently disqualified). He's holding his form and is good enough to win a race.

16:50 - APRES DARK (1) is very speedily bred and overcame inexperience to make a winning debut in good style at Newmarket in June, staying on strongly and in control when edging left late on. He is clearly promising and seems sure to progress and win more races.

17:20 - DANDYS DERRIERE (2), who had already been gelded ahead of his debut, nearly make the perfect start to life at Newbury last month, just undone by a shade of inexperience against a rival with a run behind him. That rival has subsequently come out and won a Group 3, giving plenty of substance to the form, and with improvement anticipated, it is difficult to oppose Dandys Derriere.

17:50 - KRYSTALLITE (3) showed she retains all her ability when third over this course and distance on her return to action in June, and despite a couple of below par efforts since, she is beginning to look well handicapped (5 lb below her last winning mark). She is a four-time winner over this course and distance and could be worth chancing ahead of GEORGE THOMAS (5), who also has a good chance on the pick of his form.

18:20 - A promising individual, DREAMING BLUE (7) might well have finished second at Yarmouth last time had he not met trouble late on, rallying well entering the final furlong when almost knocked over and unable to recover. He looked very much a stayer on that occasion, so this step up in trip should show him to better effect, and with further improvement in the pipeline, he should go close granted a little more luck.

18:50 - COSTELLO (9) has hit the frame in each of his last two races, including when not ideally placed in the scheme of things at Bath last time, coming from off the pace. He is down 2 lb for that effort and makes plenty of appeal on his tapeta debut.

19:20 - BIZZI LIZZI (1) is bred in the purple and looked a good prospect as she made a winning start at Newmarket last month, quickening to lead around two furlongs out and keeping on well under a hands-and-heels ride. She is open to significant improvement and holds leading claims for the powerful John Gosden yard.

19:50 - NIGHT TIME GIRL (13) showed improved form to finish fourth on her handicap debut at Lingfield last time, impressing with the way she travelled for all that her effort flattened out. She looks to have some scope for improvement and the likelihood is there is more to come from this well-bred filly.

20:20 - WRATH OF HECTOR (6) was much improved to get off the mark at Yarmouth last month, the booking of Silvestre de Sousa, a step back in trip and first-time blinkers all potential factors behind the progress, and he shaped much better than the bare result when fourth at Lingfield seven days ago, missing an opportunity under a penalty but through no fault of his own, hampered at the start and left poorly placed as a result. He has gone up 5 lb in the weights now but de Sousa is back on board and another bold showing is expected.
