Wolverhampton Race 8 - Betmgm Supports Safer Gambling Fillies' Handicap

NIVELLE'S MAGIC (1) Missed by a narrow margin last run at Kempton and has drawn to do little work. Will be positive in the run early. Looks well suited in this race. CARDINAL POINT (4) Zipped home into 2nd beaten by 1/2L last start at Newcastle. Should race on the speed. Jockey Hector Crouch and trainer Michael Bell have a solid working relationship. Can get the job done . HACKNEY DIAMONDS (6) Backing up quickly for this race. Romped home to win last start at Southwell and form has been improving over recent runs. Must be considered. BEREZKA (3) Resuming after a break. Came in 6th last time at Newcastle. First start for a new trainer. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Worth at least a place bet in this race.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 53 day let-up. Most recently 2nd in a small field at Kempton Park All Weather on December 1 over 2200m, neck behind Mission Possible carrying 61kg at $5.50. Before that held ground to the line 2nd of 12 at Newbury on October 25 over 2400m, on a slow track; 0.5 len behind Alpine Stroll with 66.5kg at $10. Should be right in the finish.
