Race time recorded.

In-running (Boilermaker (FR))

“Led straightaway on the wide side - drifted left approaching the 1f marker and dictated a even gallop - moved further ahead from the 2f point - asked for effort inside the last furlong - stayed on to hold advantage at the line”

Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party
Pundit pick: Kingdom Of Stars

Kingdom Of Stars heads this seven-runner Class 5 contest at Wolverhampton on the all-weather over fourteen furlongs, sitting narrowly ahead of Boilermaker and One Cool Dreamer, who are level with each other and represent the most likely threats, with The Craftymaster also worth a mention at a small remove. The step up in trip looks well suited to Kingdom Of Stars, and if reproducing anything close to his best form on this surface, he has the edge needed to see off his rivals. Kingdom Of Stars is our selection.
