Lucky 15 Tips: Rock can star in two-year-old sprint test

Sneaked over the midweek hump, and our reward is some fascinating action for Thursday, November 21. I very much like the look of Wolverhampton in terms of fields and personnel in attendance, and so it's to Dunstall Park I'm heading for our Lucky 15 tips.

Their NINE-race card on the Tapeta surface kicks in at 16:10.

16:10 - Rock Hunter @ 5/2

Experienced, gelded Expert Eye two-year-old who is for the most part extremely consistent.

Rock Hunter sounds like a 1950's American teen idol but in reality is housed with Amy Murphy in Newmarket. He won on debut at Chantilly (April) and initially looked a horse of immense promise.

Things subsequently flattened out a little and the horse was gelded in September; with two of his three runs since being far more like the form shown back in the spring. The only blip was when evidently not handling heavy ground in a Newbury nursery.

Last time at Chelmsford 12 days ago he lost by less than a length and up just a pound he can make amends for that and record victory number two this afternoon.

17:10 - Patagonia Girl @ 10/3

Hugo Palmer's two-year-old filly by Australia has had two runs, the latest of which was a narrow reverse 22 days ago to a horse who has since gone in by an easy 5l at Wolves.

Excellent 3lb claimer Sean D Bowen in on top, for the first time, and the last spin showed considerable improvement from the first. Patagonia Girl is stoutly, beautifully-bred, out of a Camelot mare, so while this 1m-and-change is no issue right now, surely she'll be stretching out over further in time.

An exciting prospect, and a lovely heat, with some big yards in opposition.

17:40 - Rusheen Boy @ 5/1

Julia Fielden trains this three-year-old gelding for owner 'Munster Heroes' - a tight-looking 7f handicap to sink our teeth into.

Consistent type - two wins from 11 races, and a few placed efforts too. Rusheen Boy failed by just half-a-length three weeks ago at Chelmsford over 6f, running on well, and gets an extra furlong on this (for me) easier track, which look likely to suit.

I think his current mark of 64 is workable (up a pound for that last creditable run), and jockey Dylan Hogan knows him well. Fine chance.

19:45 - Zousca @ 4/1

David Loughnane trains this three-year-old Zoustar filly, looking for her first success after six runs so far.

Zousca gets a further 300 yards or so on previous attempts at around 7f and then a mile, and it might just be the key to notching that first win. That last spin was just about the best she's managed so far, and though her breeding is really all about speed, it's not an exact science and fingers crossed she appreciates stretching out in the Midlands.

It looks to me to be a very ordinary contest with plenty of well-exposed opponents.

This is an example of a Lucky 15. If you can improve upon my selections (of course you can), then go for it!

The odds can fluctuate between publishing our pieces and race-time. As a guide, a £0.25p each-way Lucky 15 on today's selections, at the prices, and assuming all four won, would return around £265 for your total £7.50 stake.
