Alaskan Bullet set to upset joint-favourites in 32Red Handicap at Wolverhampton
According to the betting forecast, Last Sovereign and York Glory are enjoying the highest odds in Wednesday’s 32Red Handicap at Wolverhampton. But it does not mean that their chances are absolute. Alaskan Bullet is relatively unexposed, and despite a tough
draw, he is likely to do special things in today’s class 3 meeting.
The Brian Ellison-trained is coming off an excellent triumph. After facing embarrassment respectively at Newmarket and Royal Ascot, the 3-year-old reached here at the start of October. Although he could not even share the podium, the improvement was quite
evident.
By grabbing the fourth place in a tough clash, the son of Kodiac regained momentum. He further raised his game to ensure a classy victory last time around. On the fifth of November, Wolverhampton’s audience saw him showing an outstanding effort in the Wolverhampton-racecourse.co.uk
Selling Stakes.
Despite failing to take a fine start in the hands of George Baker, the big fellow did not lose confidence. Making smooth progress, the 4-6 favourite led well inside the final furlong. He stretched his advantage afterwards, taking the honours comfortably
by five lengths.
Winning so easily must have taken his confidence to the peak, and he is expected to continue doing the goods. There are nine other horses in the pack, all searching a prize of £6,792. Over a distance of five furlongs and 20 yards, they will start running
at 15:20 GMT.
Last Sovereign is running pretty well these days. The draw is also in his favour. So, we expect Ollie Pears’ trainee to make things tricky for the rest. York Glory is also in fine fettle these days. The 4-year-old made all at Lingfield, beating Swiss Cross
by half a length.
Besides these two, no one is likely to trouble Alaskan Bullet. Whozthecat is 6lb higher than when winning in September. Tango Sky would not mind return to the AW, but the mark is tough enough.
Wins are not coming to Profile Star’s way regularly, but the David Barron-trained was a winner here on sole previous visit. Rylee Mooch, on the other hand, requires a career-best effort to defy the penalty.
