Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted November 28, 2018 Journalists Share Posted November 28, 2018 RACING POST NAP17:30 Wolverhampton The final race of a packed 8 race card is where we’ll find our best selection this afternoon. We’re presented with a horse who has a trainer and jockey combination that have a 100% strike rate when they combine. Joey Haynes and John Butler don’t team up all that often but when they do they seem to be a lethal combination. They’re set to saddle and ride three year old course and distance victor Tiger Lyon. He’s been very disappointing on the turf this season and has shown nothing in his last four runs but a return to this venue is definitely a positive. He seems to act much better on an artificial surface and now comes back to Wolverhampton with 2lbs less weight to carry than when successful here previously. All the evidence points to a big run and hopefully we can capitalise on an improved effort this time around. With a couple of course and distance winners also set to lineup it’s hard to discount the majority of the field but Secret Potion and Mezyan look the most likely threats to our selection. TIGER LYON (WIN) – NAP RACEBETS ALTERNATIVE BET 13:50 Wetherby These lightly raced youngsters don’t have an abundance of form to go off but it’s very difficult to ignore the two runs that The Very Thing has put in to date. A return to action saw him finish a credible third and the yard of Olly Murphy have their horses going well of late. There’s no doubt that the horse will improve for his most recent outing and today’s race looks a much easier task and as such should take all the beating. A horse that looks worth noting is yet to enter the national hunt sphere but managed to claim a shock victory on the flat earlier this month. If Lopes Dancer can transfer his flat form to races over obstacles he could potentially be a dark horse that flies under the radar. Of the remainder you can’t ignore any horse that’s trained by Dan Skelton so Up The Drive is also likely to be a player.
