Wolverhampton Race 5 - Sky Sports Racing Virgin 512 Ebf Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
URUMITA (8) holds big form claims judging on a 3.5L fourth debuting at Newbury. Failed to build upon that down in trip since but back at this distance may find improvement. Drawn well and could prove hard to beat. OXBRIDGE (4) is a nicely bred son of Blue Point. Yard have good record with their debutants and he is easy to fancy. GILDED CALL (1) was beaten 4L fourth at Ffos Las latest. Open to further improvement and stable is having a positive spell at present. Keep safe. NIGHTBLOOM (7) ran below market expectations on first campaign but been given wind surgery and might now progress. Shortlist.

Two-year-old colt who is first starter by Blue Point out of Great Dame. Should run a bold race.

Jumped at long odds at debut, ran second last of 15 at Newbury on September 18 over 1200m, 18 len behind Oakford carrying 60.5kg at $41. Don't think he will trouble this field.

Resuming after a ten weeks break. Finished off last campaign sixth of 8 at Sandown Park July 24 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Not My Type carrying 58kg at $12. On debut second last of 7 at Beverley July 3 over 1000m, 10 len behind Tropical Crown carrying 58kg at $4. Will benefit from that race experience so worth considering.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, 4th of 10 at Newbury on August 26 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Starburster carrying 58kg at $13. Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 10 at Windsor on September 14 over 1000m, 6 len behind Instant Force with 58kg at $4.50. Key chance likely to give a big sight.
