Wolverhampton Race 3 - Bet365 Fillies' Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
INKBERROW (2) made a highly encouraging start to her career when a neck second over course and distance seventeen days ago. Finds a golden opportunity to go one better. LAHAN KINGMAN (4) failed to produce her best at Chester (1400m) returning from a break last time. Went close in a pair of all-weather maidens during the spring so a reversion to this surface might help. VENTANA (7) reportedly bled when last seen back in June. Better judged on her previous second contesting a 1200m fillies event. Possibilities. MOONLIGHT MELODY (5) holds ability to get competitive dropping back into novice company. Leading contender.
