The KTB Fit ranking

1. 1Holliesthedollie KTB Selection57/100

   Form 748010 · Jonathan Portman · Harry Davies

   Family: half-sister to Jojo Rabbit (10 wins from 72 runs). The dam has had 5 other runners, 1 of them a winner.

   Holliesthedollie is a modest performer who has already won once at this trip from three starts. Her recent form of 748010 includes a clear success at this level but also several poor efforts, and the official rating of 65 looks about right. She is held up, usually producing her effort late, which could prove well suited to the expected strong pace. The trainer records a 10% strike rate at Wolverhampton from 404 runs, in line with the 8% achieved elsewhere, while jockey Harry Davies has a 13% strike rate at the track from 232 rides. As a half-sister to Jojo Rabbit who won ten times from 72 runs, she comes from a family where the dam has produced one winner from five other runners. This is her first run at the course and she has had just one start on standard ground without placing.

2. 2Cydney Sweenie57/100

   Form 43854 · Jack Morland · Callum Rodriguez

   Family: half-sister to Vince Le Prince (6 wins from 52 runs). The dam has had 3 other runners, 2 of them winners.

   Cydney Sweenie is a modest performer who has shown some ability on this track, finishing third here on her only visit. She has been placed once at today's trip from two attempts and is a half-sister to Vince Le Prince who has won six times from 52 runs, while the dam has produced two winners from three other runners. Her recent form of 43854 suggests she remains vulnerable in this company despite the placed effort on standard ground. She typically settles in midfield, which should keep her out of the expected early battle. The trainer has a 16% strike rate at Wolverhampton from 43 runs, and although this is Callum Rodriguez's first ride at the track his overall record here stands at 15% from 281 rides.

3. 3Last Dandelion56/100

   Form 453201 · Stuart Williams · Marco Ghiani

   Last Dandelion is a modest performer with a solid recent record that includes a win and two placed efforts from his last four starts. He steps up to 6f for the first time having been placed without winning at the trip once before, and his going form shows him competitive on standard ground from two starts. Usually held up and producing his effort late, he should be well placed if the strong pace materialises as expected. The trainer records a 15% strike rate at Wolverhampton from 935 runs, above the 11% achieved at other tracks, although this is the colt's first run here. Marco Ghiani takes the ride with the pair combining at a 13% strike rate at the venue from 492 rides.

4. 4Maximus Meridius55/100

   Form 234348 · David Loughnane · Rowan Scott

   Maximus Meridius is a modest performer who has been placed once in four runs at this trip but is yet to win in six starts. First-time headgear is now fitted after a string of ordinary efforts in a form line of 234348. He is held up, usually producing his effort late, which aligns with the shape that could favour those coming from off the pace. Dropping in class, the trainer records a 10% strike rate at Wolverhampton from 886 runs, in line with the yard's overall figure. Rowan Scott is in the saddle with the combination showing a 9% strike rate at the track from 53 runs together, though the colt remains unproven on standard ground.

5. 5Stoney Wood55/100

   Form 085652 · Michael Bell · Billy Loughnane

   Family: half-brother to Azure Blue, a Group 2 winner (8 wins from 21 runs). The dam has had 5 other runners, 4 of them winners.

   Stoney Wood is a modest two-year-old who has shown some ability at this trip, placing once in five starts. His recent form of 085652 suggests he is competitive at this level without looking progressive, though the family background as half-brother to Group 2 winner Azure Blue, who has eight wins from 21 runs, offers some hope he can step up. The dam has produced four winners from five other runners. Usually racing prominently on or close to the lead, he could find himself in the firing line early given the strong pace expected. The trainer has an 18% strike rate at Wolverhampton from 736 runs, above the yard's record elsewhere, while Billy Loughnane boasts a 20% strike rate at the venue from 838 rides and the pair combine at 13% from 30 runs.

6. 6From Me To You51/100

   Form 040636 · Richard Hannon · Sean Levey

   From Me To You is a modest performer who has shown some ability on this track, finishing third here on his only visit. He drops back to 6f today having failed to win in three previous attempts at the trip and his recent form of 040636 suggests he is vulnerable in this field, though he is held up and should benefit if the pace collapses late.

7. 7Mubehir47/100

   Form 072859 · Paul Midgley · Kieran O'Neill
