Ophelia Grace 7/2 - 17:00 Wolverhampton
Kevin Philippart De Foy is currently operating at a very solid strike rate during the past 14 days and sends one horse to Wolverhampton today in search of a win to extend that red hot form.
Ophelia Grace is a filly coming in with solid recent form, 2nd, 1st and 2nd in her last three starts so she’s got consistency working in her favour. What’s more, she’s proven she can win on the all-weather so switching back to a synthetic surface here may suit her nicely.
Also, the step into a nursery gives her room to improve as she hasn’t been exposed fully yet. And while there are some interesting rivals, she has the benefit of a relatively high rating over some of them, which suggests she is held in good regard by the handicapper.
If her class shows up and she handles the draw and pace well, Ophelia Grace is exactly the kind of lightly-raced, improving juvenile who can win in a race such as this.
