Wolverhampton (AW) 6:30 Result

Small four-runner field, and Last Verse looks the strongest on recent form and figures. His form string -81391 shows a recent win and he's the highest-rated runner in the race on OR 82, carrying that class with only a fair weight. Trainer Joseph Parr and Pat Cosgrave booking suggests confidence, and the addition of a visor could sharpen him further. He was applying visor and winning last time, showing progression at 3yo, a stage where improvement is expected. Robusto's form (015831) shows he's up and down in form and already exposed at 6yo with blinkers already tried, capped at this sort of level. Brunhilde is interesting on a stack of pattern-adjacent placings (4221) but she's stepping up in trip conditions somewhat unproven test at this longer 1m6f trip for a filly who has been competing over shorter, and 54 days off is a query. Level Look has been freshening in and around but his form 4-1426 is inconsistent and hasn't shown he strings together the sort of foot to beat a fit, in-form Last Verse. With just four runners, this becomes a pace/tempo query race, but Last Verse looks fit, lightly-raced enough to have improvement left, and rates clear on official figures. Backing the horse with the best form and rating in a small, unpredictable field is the value play here rather than taking a short price on an unproven or less-fancied rival.
