Musical Soldier (IRE) won the 20:00 Wolverhampton (AW) at SP 3.50. Ridden by Jack Callan. Trained by Ollie Sangster.
No — the AI top pick (Electrocution) finished 7.
Top finishers: 1. Musical Soldier (IRE) (3.50), 2. Oh So Perfect (IRE) (12.00), 3. Based (IRE) (2.20).
The winning time was 1m 28.00s.
Based is the pick on profile rather than pure figures - he sits three pounds behind the top-rated Magic Lady Mae on our figures, but his form is trending the right way, headlined by a win two starts back, and he arrives fresher into this contest. Magic Lady Mae and Fullstop both rate above him and head the dangers, with Crown The Future close behind on the same book. Confidence is low with this field tightly bunched, but Based's shape of form and readiness give him the edge. Based is our selection.
