Three to note from Wolverhampton tonight
It's the last Friday before Christmas, and there will be a lot of evening festivities taking place. If you're staying in perhaps this trio of runners at Wolverhampton can get you in the holiday spirit.
It has been a highly trying time for Hughie Morrison, but on Friday he was able to breath a huge sigh of relief as a BHA disciplinary panel imposed only a £1,000 fine, rather than a suspension, when concluding the Our Little Sister doping case.
He now has the chance to round the day off with a winner, with Racehorse bidding for a first success. The filly showed promise on debut when fourth, having been drawn widest of all in stall nine. She has a better draw in stall three here and could go close.
David Simcock would be forgiven for not wanting the year to end with his team in such scintillating form.
From his last ten runners, five have obliged, and his sole runner here is Doctor Sardonicus, who was last seen winning at Chelmsford in August. He will need a career-best off a mark of 105, but given the yard's form is dangerous to discount.
Can the visor have the same effect? That is the big question surrounding Ted's Brother, who bids to follow up his nine-length win at Chelmsford last time.
The headgear was on for the first time that day, and it stays on the nine-year-old, who is due to go up 10lb as of Saturday.
