17.30 Wolverhampton: Poste Restante @ 9/1 Bet365 - 3pts win
Plenty to like about this filly on handicap debut stepping up in trip to 12f for the first time. Poste Restante showed a bit of promise in her second career start at Lingfield, when she missed the break and was pretty early pretty badly outpaced. But it was eye-catching the way she stayed on in the closing stages, suggesting she definitely needs further. This is backed very much so by her pedigree, as there is plenty of stamina both on sire- as well as on dam side. So only for that reason she's very interesting as she should absolutely relish the new trip. Her opening mark looks high enough for what she showed so far on the other hand. But the Simcock yard is bang in form and why would they step up the horse on handicap debut to a trip that looks an excellent fit, if not having the hand break off? In addition to this the young 7lb claimer looks decent, rode a winner for Simcock at Kempton on Tuesday. Having all this in mind it looks to me as if Poste Restante is pretty good value at 9/1 in an otherwise horrible Apprentice Handicap.
