4:55 Gentle Fire (28/1) has run the same times on the clock as today's even money favourite Virtual Hug. Last time up Gentle Fire was 1/2 a length behind the jolly. He is a lb better off and Brandon Wilkie claims another 5.
Needless to say, win, lose or draw, I'll be on the 28/1 shot.
8:00 Zumaaty (20/1) is undeniably inconsistent. Not incapable though. He has a C&D to his name carrying 4lb more. He's fit, he ran twice last month.
Drawn in trap 1, I expect him to get into the race and take an inside route, ie the shortest one. You don't want to race 3 wide at Wolver over a mile.
He's worth a punt mainly though, because races of this type at Wolverhampton, he's usually anything from 2/1 up to about 6's. 20's is just not cricket old boy.

Zumaati is another one I took 30's on via the exchanges, only to see it get laid at 60/1 later. There are some very brave layers freewheeling it out there at the moment. They may end up regretting it big time.
