Wolverhampton Race 3 - Race And Rest At The Holiday Inn Handicap
OFF THE BENCH (3) finished nicely running fourth last start over 1160m at Bath. Suited among this company. Genuine winning hope. GORGEOUS MR GEORGE (2) has been well back early in his races. Drops in grade and could surprise against easier. RAAVI (1) resumes after nine month absence. Form last prep was fair. Capable fresh and one to consider. JIMMY HENRY (5) has not raced since February. Showed promise last prep and completes the shortlist.
