Aldreth looks worth siding with at 14/1 on his handicap debut in the 8.45 at Wolverhampton tonight.
Mick Easterby’s charge failed to cut any ice in four maidens runs last season, but was never plavced to challenge in any and didn’t run too badly on the final occasion when 10th of 15 to Mayfield Boy over a mile at York.
The son of Champs Elysees was held-up and took a keen hold that day before keeping on to be beaten 8 1/2 lengths under a tender ride.
He now gets into this off a lowly opening mark of 57 and looks the type that could come into his own now handicapping.
The step up to 1m 1f should also suit, and his shrew handler looks to have found him a nice opening to exploit.
I certainly don’t think he should be as big as 14/1 for this, and with Graham Gibbons in the saddle he makes plenty of each-way appeal.
Daily Sport recommended bet: 2pts each-way Aldreth (14/1 bet365 – BOG)
