A trio to keep an eye on at Wolverhampton this evening

If Qipco Champions Day at Ascot is just not enough for you then Wolverhampton takes up the running at 5.40pm with an eight-race card on At The Races. Here are three horses worth watching at the Midlands track this evening...

Master Singer is not running at Ascot on Champions Day, although at one point the idea of him taking part in the big Flat finale might not have seemed that ludicrous.

You see, the son of Giant’s Causeway, and half-brother to Campanologist among others, bolted up by 15 lengths in a maiden at Newcastle in the spring, although that was a weak contest.

It has gone rather pear-shaped since for Master Singer. He hasn't won subsequently, finishing well beaten on all three starts. He returns to Tapeta this evening and dropping to 1m4f looks much more in his favour than the staying trips he has been tried over.

We are at the end of the Flat season – officially that is, even though there is still more to come – so that means trainers and owners are keen to test their unraced horses to know what they might have for next season.

In Wissahickon, trainer John Gosden and owner/breeder George Strawbridge have a fascinating contender. He is by leading US stallion Tapit and a half-brother to the magnificent two-year-old Rainbow View, among others.

He holds no fancy entries, and has a rotten draw, but he is nevertheless worth a watch.

There must be something trainer Mark Johnston sees in Daleelak which is not as obvious to the rest of us.

Rated 50, Daleelak has shown very little form since Johnston, a man who routinely churns out winners and big-race winners as well, bought him off Hamdan Al Maktoum at the sales last summer.

Johnston reaches for blinkers for the first time tonight for Daleelak, who returned from eight months off the course recently.
