Using the Racing Post's unrivalled bank of stats, we pick out three horses to back tonight based on trainer form, RPRs and, tonight's wild card, the superb strike-rate of a trainer-jockey partnership

Trainer form

Sadlers Beach
8.00 Wolverhampton
Angle: Marcus Tregoning has won with three of his last seven runners.

Marcus Tregoning did not get to see his rising star Mohaather run in the 2,000 Guineas, but the momentum of his runners has not stopped in the Greenham winner's absence.

Tregoning has won with three of his last seven runners and runs Sadlers Beach, who has shown little over inadequate trips. Today's step up in distance to 1m1½f should be much more to her liking, and she wears a first-time hood on her handicap debut.

Ratings

Tempus
8.30 Wolverhampton
Angle: Debut RPR miles better than anything else in this field

Even before Fabulist became a non-runner, Tempus looked the one to beat on the RPR (82) he produced at Nottingham in October.

Not many of the remaining rivals have much racing experience and whilst it's always a risk underestimating the unknown, this son of Kingman will likely need to simply reproduce his debut effort to win here.

Wild card

Badenscoth
7.30 Wolverhampton
Angle: Dean Ivory and Franny Norton have a 50 per cent strike-rate when teaming up at Wolverhampton.

Dean Ivory and jockey Franny Norton have combined to win with a 50 per cent strike-rate at Wolverhampton and that strike-rate far exceeds their individual performances at the course.

The pair team up with Badenscoth here, who has climbed 13lb in the handicap for two course-and-distance wins this spring. There is little reason to suspect he can't make it a hat-trick.
