Re: BBOTD Thursday 12th of April 8.25 Wolverhampton Really bad day for flat fans but this isnt a bad race for the evening AW card under the floodlights. Red Somerset is clearly in good heart with good efforts in sellers and claimers recently but wasnt winning out of turn in those and likely to find this much tougher back in handicap. Whitby Jet is worth a note, proved relatively reliable last year but didnt win much off a race at Brighton when last winning off a mark of 66 runs off 74 today and that looks harsh enough. Satwa Laird is potentially on a good mark and from a yard going well but never convinced he stayed this trip and porbably worth opposing. Honey Of A Kitten had threatened to win a rce for his yard before doing so earlier in the year over slightly further around here. Failed to back it up next time out off same mark, showed nothing over hurdles recently and now 6lb higher and clearly has something to prove again. Odd Ball has gone from strength to strength recently and is becoming hard to weigh up, looked even better over this extended mile trip over CD last time out. Winning streak start in 2 class 7 handicaps and last time out in class 6 so this is clearly a step up and is competitive to boot but he clearly has more to give but how much its hard to say and not one to take at a short price after a 7lb rise in the handicap. At the prices Angelic Upstart offers a little bit of value despite having to carry topweight. Balding yard going well including runners coming back from breaks so should be fit enough to do himself justice. Still lightly raced with just the 8 starts, raced in some hot handicaps at start of last season on turf didnt show true colours. Has a much better record on the AW with 4 runs and 2 wins and 2 3rds so clearly a return to this surface another positive and because of those disappointing efforts on turf has dropped to just 1lb above last winning mark. 0.5pt e/w Angelic Upstart 10/1 bet365
