    The 19.45 at Wolverhampton tonight was obviously a low quality Grade 6 affair.
    Generally you would focus on the winner , Golden Shot , a typical Prescott job. Campaigned over an inadequate 7 furlongs last year at odds of 50s , 125s , 250s etc. This season wins at evens and 2/7 over 1 mile 6 furlongs.
    However , my comments are not about that.
    Watch the ride on Fellowship , the second favourite. I would be amazed if this wasn’t to ensure that it didn’t finish too close to the Prescott horse , and possibly adversely affect the handicap rating.
    No money on the race personally, but this was perplexing to say the least.
