Newsboy's Wolverhampton Tips: Colors Of Freedom Tipped for Monday Nap
Newsboy's Wolverhampton Tips: Monday Nap Revealed

Racing expert Newsboy has pinpointed his standout selections for Monday's evening fixture at Wolverhampton, with Colors Of Freedom highlighted as his best bet of the day.

Nap Selection Aims for Fourth Track Win

The spotlight falls on the concluding race, the Join The Midnite Movement Handicap at 8.00, where Newsboy's nap, Colors Of Freedom, is strongly fancied. The mare, trained by Joe Ponting, will be seeking her fourth career victory over the same course and distance of five furlongs at Dunstall Park.

All seven of her career wins have come on Tapeta surfaces, with her last three successes achieved at Wolverhampton. She won off a mark of 49 in June and now races from a potentially lenient rating of 48, suggesting she is well-handicapped for this assignment.

Colors Of Freedom returns quickly after finishing second in a classified stakes at the track on Friday. With Gina Mangan in the saddle and the cheekpieces worn last time retained, she is tipped to go one better and secure the win.

Next Best and Daily Double Chance

Earlier on the card, Newsboy has identified Aim For The Bull as his next best selection in the Read Meg Nicholls' Blog At betmgm.co.uk Classified Stakes (Division III) at 5.00.

The four-year-old, trained by Mike Murphy, produced an encouraging performance just before Christmas, finishing a two-length second in a seven-furlong handicap at Southwell. A reproduction of that effort would make Callum Shepherd's mount a leading contender as he seeks a maiden victory at the eighteenth attempt.

Newsboy recommends combining both selections for a Daily Double of Colors Of Freedom and Aim For The Bull.
