Mat can floor Wolves rivals

It is not often Wolverhampton takes centre-stage but Dunstall Park is certainly the focal point tomorrow by staging the richest race of the day.

And the wolverhampton-racecourse.co.uk Handicap can go to the consistent Matsunosuke.

The five-year-old will be having his first try on the all-weather surface but has been showing up well in fair company this time, most recently when finishing a laudable third at Leicester.

Conditions were probably a little on the slow side for Matsunosuke that day but he was still only beaten a total of a neck.

His previous runs at Newmarket and Sandown also bode well and it would be no surprise if this tough performer secures a third victory this term.

Red Birr’s last two wins have come on this track and he can serve up another success in the Sponsor A Race By Calling 0870 220 2442 Handicap.

Paul Webber’s runner made a triumphant return from a five-month break over this course and distance two weeks ago.

He has gone up 4lb for beating Paradise Dancer half a length but will be all the better for the outing.

Fisher Bridge returns to the scene of his debut run when he lines up for the Horizons Restaurant Handicap.

Since finishing fourth to Whatizzit in December 2005, he has been restricted to just four runs – but is still on the upgrade.

The Singspiel gelding, trained by Walter Swinburn, got off the mark in August at Leicester and could be a blot on the handicap.

Atlantic Coast looks the best bet in the Weatherbys Finance Handicap on a marathon eight-race card at Warwick.

Mark Johnston’s progressive young stayer has won three of his last four races, the latest coming at Yarmouth where he held Prince Zafonic by a neck.

The form looks solid as the first two drew 11 lengths clear of the reliable veteran High Point.

Atlantic Coast holds an entry in the totesport Cesarewitch but is so far down the handicap he is unlikely to get a run.

A 4lb penalty for his latest success has brought his weight up to just 6st 7lb and he would only incur a further 3lb should he strike tomorrow.

Lord Peter Flint can make it third-time lucky in the Bryant Homes Maiden Stakes.

Brian Meehan’s youngster was only beaten a head by Mystery Sail in a four-way photo at Newbury last time. This is surely his turn.

Bestofthebrownies can kickstart his winter campaign with victory in the WBX.COM £25 Bet For New Accounts Handicap Chase at Sedgefield.

The six-year-old has already had half a dozen runs over fences and his only win came on this track in April.

Now that he has had enough experience, his time has come to tackle handicap company and trainer Howard Johnson looks to have found a decent opportunity.

Barney can register his third course success in the WBX.COM 0% Commission On Big Races Handicap Hurdle.

Evelyn Slack’s versatile six-year-old returns from a two-month break after finishing fourth in a handicap chase at Cartmel.

He is equally effective over the smaller obstacles, as he can show at the Durham track.
