AL AMEEN is expected to take advantage of a lenient mark in the Play Coral Racing-Super-Series For Free Handicap (6.00) at Wolverhampton.
The George Boughey-saddled son of Aclaim showed ability with a debut sixth over six furlongs here two days after Christmas, going one better with a short-head margin over five at Southwell on New Year's Day.
Al Ameen went back up to six at Lingfield Park 16 days ago and put up a personal best under a penalty, going under by three parts of a length to War In Heaven.
My selection didn't help his chance with a slow start that day, but, if getting away on terms, shouldn't be troubled by a return to the minimum trip as he starts off in handicaps on a British Horseracing Authority mark of 77.
Later at Dunstall Park, SCARBOROUGH CASTLE gets the vote to return to winning ways in the #betyourway At Betway Handicap (Div II) (8.30).
Although his latest win, at Southwell on December 22, came at a mile and a half, David Simcock's five-year-old had scored twice over this course and distance during the previous two months.
