Wolverhampton Race 9 - Win 250,000 With Betmgm's Golden Goals Handicap
AKRIVOS (6) made the frame once from four starts since entering handicap company. Latest course and distance fourth was a big step in the right direction and a bold bid looms. BERKSHIRE SCHMOKIN (2) reappeared after a four-and-a-half-month break producing a respectable fourth on Chelmsford handicap debut. Open to plenty of improvement second-up. Main danger. MONTU (7) stayed on well for a midfield finish at Kempton earlier this month. Unlikely to be far away stepping up in distance. Each-way hope. SWEET LOVE (3) climbs in trip and looks interesting returning from a three-month break. Place possibilities.

Second-up. First-up after four months ran last of 7 at Newcastle All Weather on February 6 over 1600m, 7 len behind Maria Da Silva with 59.5kg at $12. Previously second-up 2nd of 7 at Brighton on September 15 over 1400m, on a slow track; 0.8 len behind Quarter carrying 60.5kg at $7.50. Should improve but still looking elsewhere.
