Lucky 15 tips with alan firkins

There's a flat all-weather bonanza from Wolverhampton on Friday night. NINE races, kicking in at 16:22, and with the last SEVEN LIVE on ITV4. How about that for our gateway to the weekend, and an absolutely perfect vehicle for our Lucky 15 tips.

Rossa Ryan is here - Rolls-Royce for me in terms of jockeyship. See his win in the last at Kempton on Wednesday (Solanna)? Other-worldly. Timed to the millisecond, with power, poise and perfection.

Billy Loughnane is riding too, as is Tom Marquand, Hollie Doyle, Oisin Murphy. It should be a fantastic spectacle. Plenty to live up to today - yesterday's little jaunt to Sedgefield gave us three fabulous winners from our four selections.

17:30 - One Cool Dreamer @ 7/2

Only appropriate we start with a Rolls-Royce, sorry Rossa Ryan-ridden conveyance in this 12f Class 5 handicap.

Trainer Alan King's string have been in very decent fettle of late and he saddles One Cool Dreamer in this, a five-year-old Oasis Dream gelding who's also, unsurprisingly, had three spins over timber.

The selection ran here 45 days ago over slightly further (1m 6f) and was an excellent second, beaten just a neck, under today's pilot. Rossa is often booked by King and has enjoyed many successes on the veteran Wiltshire handler's horses.

The third home that day has come out and won his next two, admittedly again at longer than today's trip, but it shows the solid nature of the form. This is typical of the kind of competitive heat we'll see all evening, and I'm suggesting we play an each-way Lucky 15 tonight for that very reason.

19:00 - First Principle @ 11/4

Another star of the weighing room now. The globe-trotting 27-year-old Tom Marquand rides First Principle for his main patron William Haggas, and the four-year-old Kingman gelding ran here 13 days ago in a slightly higher grade, proving his well-being with a second of 12, beaten 1.25l.

First Principle is three-from-seven all told, and this mile-and-change trip seems to suit admirably. Just a suggestion that he might have needed that last run after a break of 108 days, and doubtless after stripping fitter today should take the world of beating.

20:00 - Dragon Leader @ 4/1

Unashamedly off to the RR well once again, this time on a horse trained by another who's quick to use Rossa whenever possible - Lambourn maestro Clive Cox.

Dragon Leader has been campaigned so far at between 6f and a mile, with tonight's 7f seeming to suit just fine. He's a class-dropper in this, generally facing much stiffer tests but slipped into a Class 4 today.

Reappearing after a 329-day break he ran here 13 days ago under Ryan and finished a creditable 4.25l adrift in a grade higher. He was held up in rear and didn't really get in a blow at the business end, and is another who will I'm sure have benefitted from that and go on to perform accordingly this evening.

Four wins from 12 so far, and the five-year-old gelding has surely had some issues given several lengthy absences. Connections are evidently persisting though, which offers much encouragement - as does that reappearance effort.

20:30 - Seraphim Angel @ 8/1

We close with an Oisin Murphy-ridden four-year-old filly by a G3-winning sprinter whose dam was out of the top-flight miler Paco Boy.

Seraphim Angel is housed at Ollie Sangster's in Wiltshire, a very recent development as she was at Tom Dascombe's until a handful of days ago. She has three wins from 12 starts, and has run once here previously last April, down the field over 5f in this grade.

That was off a mark of 85, and she's rated 82 today, having slipped to 78 but then scoring when last seen in July 2025 in a 6f Windsor contest. So - a considerable absence of 249 days to overcome, but a trainer adept at resurrecting careers and a jockey of the very highest calibre booked to ride.

It's one of those where I feel she'll either very nearly win or perhaps blow up in the latter stages, but if anywhere near straight I feel she's got a cracking shout.

If all four of our selections won, today's notional 25p each-way Lucky 15, at the prices indicated (they can of course fluctuate), would return around £412 for a £7.50 total stake. If you can improve upon our selections (of course you can) - then go for it!
