3.25 Wolverhampton Warneford hasnt been seen for nearly 3 months since being claimed out of the Meehan yard when winning with great ease over this trip on turf in first time visor. New yard know the time of day with this sort of runner so would expect the market to tell the story but does come here on the back of a 3 month lay off. With Hindsight won a weak course maiden over 9f (2nd has since won another very weak maiden) when last seen, makes debut for new stable who have been rather quiet recently and had chances off similar marks in handicaps on turf prior to the switch to polytrack. Eyedoro made a promising debut but has failed to build on that effort since and looks one to tread carefully with at the moment although showed a lot more than recently when only just beaten at Southwell 4 days ago that was a maiden and will find this tougher back in handicaps and had a hard race that day and still needs to prove he handles polytrack having failed to beat a rival on it previously. For me War Of The Roses looks a tad over priced in a race lacking much depth. Always been a better horse on the AW and has a decent strike rate with 10 wins from 38 starts on the surface. His run style always makes him look hard to win with but he does have a decent attitude and is never going to win with much in hand. Handicapper reacted perhaps a little harsh on the face of his latest win back in April when beating Money Money Money by just a neck but she has since gone on and had a great season last winning off a 12lb higher mark so it could be said he beat an improving sort and a 7lb higher mark may prove fair in time, he has form off much higher marks in the past having won off a mark of 81 in the past runs off 68 today. Badly hampered on recent reappearance in a messy race before it got serious but should atleast strip fitter and aslong as getting a clean break from stall 1 could make his presence felt in this field at a big price. 0.5pt e/w War Of The Roses 16/1 hills

Re: BBOTD 16th Jan 15:25 Wolverhampton Boa E/W (15.00) VictorChandler Boa have showen some of her best on aw. She got a decent record on this track and previous won over course and distance. There are some strong horses in this field, and Boa will need to show her best, to overcome a middle draw and posibly Warneford and Eyedoro. Boa´s mark are 68. She is down 1lb, since her latest run and previous done well around 65-70 on this track. Boa recent form. 5-2-7-3-6 The jockey Hayley Turner gets his second run on this horse. The last run was back in 2010 and was a bit of a disaster.
