Flat Racing 16th Monday Sept

4.00 Wolverhampton Take A Note is largely consistent but just about looks right in the handicap at present at latest effort was a step backwards although trip possibly stretched him. Illustrious Prince scored quite convincingly in pretty soft conditions at Redcar last time out that was in an apprentice race so goes unpenalised for that, not always been the most reliable but can back efforts up and should go well. Although wide draw not helpful. The Mongoose is yet to win off a mark this high and was disappointing last time out. This trip looks a bare minimum with Ferryview Place and looks to need further. Bapak Muda looks worth a chance with some value in the market. He has won over 6f at Kempton and Haydock in good style, before running another strong race last time out in faster conditions. Up a further 1lb for that effort but back on a slower surface he should go well, also should see out this extra furlong having gone well over a mile at times. 2pt win Bapak Muda 4/1 VC 6.00 Wolverhampton Elizabeth Coffee has her quirks and finds winning tough these days, can often be pretty soft in the finish but did finish better last time out. Long time since she has shown any form over this sort of trip aswell. Eyeline is a still a maiden but has run to a respectable level most starts and better effort last time out behind Amantus who meets again today. That form looks very patchy given the way the race just fell apart and might not stand up against tougher opposition here. Men Don’t Cry finally got off the mark off a basement mark at Ffos Las in July in good style he followed them up off revised mark with 2 decent efforts, has shown a liking for the AW surface in the past over shorter trips and is of obvious interest trying these sort of trips for the first time on this surface, has a good draw and yard remain in good form. 2pt win Men Don’t Cry 5/1 VC

Re: Flat Racing 16th Monday Sept 3;30 Wolv Born to Fly - One of only 3 in the race who has a win behind her belt which was over distance in a maiden auction at Yarmouth. was given a mark of 67 for that run and entered a 0-85 class 4 race where just weakened final furlong. Handicapper has taken 3lb off Born to Fly for that effort with Jimmy Quinn taked taking over the saddle again. Dropping back into a 0-65 nursery and stall 5 for a prominent horse should help. 0.5EW 12/1 betvictor
