Wolverhampton Tips: Desert Strike
3 wins and 6 place efforts from 12 starts over course and distance and back on a workable handicap mark.
In the 2.30 Wolverhampton, Desert Strike and Conor Dore look like a match made in heaven. Only a six-year-old, Desert Strike has already started 102 races in his career, he is a tough hardy soul just the type of horse his trainer excels with.
Having started his all-weather campaign rated 80, Desert Strike has rapidly dropped to 65, a far more workable mark. On his last start he was only beaten 2.75 lengths in a higher grade at 6f, a trip that stretches his stamina. Down in grade and dropped back to 5f is ideal.
Desert Strike’s 5f Wolverhampton record: 362132153128
Rarely outside the top-3 over course and distance, Desert Strike can capitalise on his lenient mark at 11/2 (William Hill).
