Wolverhampton Race 1 - Cavani Signature Style Hcp
The progressive KAKIRRA (5) bids for a hat-trick with a convincing 4.25L success in this handicap grade over course and distance preceding a 0.5L victory among the same company trying 2000m at Bath three weeks ago. Looks hard to beat. GRINDLETON (2) ran well a fortnight ago recording a 4.75L second attempting this handicap class at Nottingham tackling 2000m. Showing promise and with a top jockey booked warrants respect up in trip. PORT DARWIN (1) is expected to go well returning to this longer journey having posted a smart 2.5L second in a 2400m handicap on penultimate start at Kempton AW. Might feature. MAKE IT UP (8) holds each-way claims.

At the latest run second last of 8 at Ripon on May 8 over 2000m, 16 len behind Vietnorm carrying 61kg at $3.30. The run before that 2nd of 9 at Kempton Park All Weather on April 30 over 2400m, 2.5 len behind Blackisthenewblack with 60kg at $11. Better than the last effort suggests and is worth another chance.

Third-up today. Resuming 3rd of 9 at this track on April 10 over 1900m, 6 len behind Three Socks On carrying 55kg at $7. Second run from a spell 3rd of 9 at Kempton Park All Weather on April 30 over 2400m, 5.5 len behind Blackisthenewblack with 53kg at $4.50. Strips fitter and looks one of the better hopes in the race.
