Horse racing tips: Newcastle and Wolverhampton – Steve Mullen’s betting preview for the racing this Wednesday, February 28

WOLVERHAMPTON 

2.15 - Steve Mullen's Star Bet

OK BY ME has bits and pieces of decent form and was just over two lengths off the pace at Chelmsford last time out. He has tumbled down the weights and should go close in the first-time blinkers.

2.45

BEATBYBEATBYBEAT has been knocking on the door and almost won despite meeting trouble in running here last time out. That was over this distance and she goes off the same mark today.

3.20

GOLCONDA PRINCE was far from disgraced in ninth at Lingfield last time when he was just three lengths off the pace. That was his first run on the level since August and he should come on for it.

3.50

COMPATRIOT won really well over course and distance eight days ago and comes back with another big chance. He shoulders a 6lb penalty for that convincing success but that shouldn’t be an issue.

4.25

AFANDEM has been off for six months and this is a big drop in class on his debut for new trainer Mark Johnston. His best form has come over this trip and a gelding operation could help too.

4.55

NEWCASTLE

5.15 Keir Hardie

5.45 Night Castle

6.15 Tommy G

6.45 Queen Moon

7.15 Gabrial The Devil

7.45 Kingstreet Lady
