Timeform have three tips for Monday's racing at Wolverhampton

We're off to the all-weather on Monday as the experts at Timeform pick out three bets on Wolverhampton's evening card...



18:30 Wolverhampton - Rhythm the pick of Cowell trio

Sprint specialist Robert Cowell runs three in this five-furlong contest, with Fiorella Princess and Rhythm N Hooves both winning last time out, and preference is for the latter who heads the Timeform ratings.

Rhythm N Hooves arrives in good form, with two wins and a second from his last four runs, successful at Newbury in August as well as enhancing his fine record at Southwell back on the all-weather last time.

He soon settled things once hitting the front last time, going clear for a comfortable win under Barry McHugh who is in the saddle again here. He's handicapped to follow up despite a 7 lb rise in the weights.


20:00 Wolverhampton - Ted Le Saux shaped well last time

Ted Le Saux didn't progress in a couple of turf starts earlier this year, but 'Hot Trainer' Andrew Balding brought him back to the all-weather last time and he shaped much better over today's course and distance.

The unexposed four-year-old had made a good start to his career on artificial surfaces, getting off the mark at Newcastle early in the year, and was returning from five months off when third here in October.

He wasn't ideally placed following a slow start and was nearest at the finish in a race won by Roi de Coeur, earning the 'Horse In Focus' flag. Top rated, he's on a mark he can exploit if things fall more his way.


20:30 Wolverhampton - Saxophonic can land third course win

Three-year-old Saxophonic has won on his last two visits to Wolverhampton and can make it a third win there this autumn for David Simcock, successful with 10 of his 38 runners at the track this year.

Saxophonic got off the mark over a longer trip in September but coped well with the drop back to a mile and a half last time and stayed on strongly to beat Forever Perfect by two lengths with Havachoc third.

Havachoc looks the main danger here, but Saxophonic's rise in the weights is offset by the claim of Jack Dace, the apprentice who won on him in September and, heading the Timeform ratings, he can win again.
