Artagnan and Gold Star Hero Set to Collide at Wolverhampton

Thursday promises to be an exciting day of racing, with All-Weather events taking place at both Southwell and Wolverhampton, broadcast live on Sky Sports Racing. The highlight of the evening card at Wolverhampton is the Free Bets On attheraces.com Handicap, where Artagnan leads a field of six. Having concluded the previous season on a high note with a win at Chelmsford and a third-place finish as the favorite, Artagnan has strong claims in this 0-85 handicap under James Doyle. Gold Star Hero, trained by Michael Bell and ridden by Hector Crouch, is a major contender, especially given Bell's recent winning streak. If Gold Star Hero can dominate from the front, it stands a good chance of success. Queue Dos, with four wins from six starts at Wolverhampton, is the best of the rest. At Southwell, a quality field of six is set to compete in the Free Digital Racecard At Raceday-Ready.com Handicap, featuring Adjuvant and Carlton. Carlton, trained by James Owen, has proven himself on the all-weather and, after a hurdles win at Huntingdon, switches to the flat, where he could make a significant impact, especially with the step up to two miles. Adjuvant, once rated much higher, has an easier task than his recent assignments and could make a comeback. Imperial Sovereign consistently performs well, while Senor Cortez is notable on his second run for John Butler.

The Download The Racecourse App Raceday Ready Handicap at 4.55pm is headlined by Tilted Kilt and Down To The Kid. Down To The Kid, last year's winner, looks ready to perform well after a strong finish behind Legal Reform in his last outing. Tilted Kilt, having dropped to a useful mark, poses a significant threat if fit enough. Star Studied gets another chance after disappointing as a favorite, and Eldrickjones cannot be ruled out based on his winter performances. Other races to watch include Naana's Crystal bidding to follow up her Southwell success at 8.30 Wolverhampton, Youarenotforgiven aiming for a hat-trick at 7.00 Wolverhampton, and Astrological fancied for Marco Botti and Hollie Doyle at 6.00 Wolverhampton. At Southwell, Ay Up Duck makes his debut among eight runners at 2.42, and Polly Darling gives weight all-round at 3.47. Across the Atlantic, Wesley Ward's two-year-olds, Skara Brae and Ruiva, headline at 6.00 Keeneland, and Ex-Ballydoyle horse Mounatin Bear features at 9.44 Keeneland. In France, a Listed event takes place at 2.40 Auteuil.
