Verdict
Diamondhead never threatened off today's mark at Wolverhampton having won at Ayr before that. BIG WAVE makes more appeal as she made a bold bid to follow-up an earlier victory over track and trip when second at Nottingham last week. She gets the nod dropping down a grade while Jungle Bay has slipped down the weights and will also find this easier than his recent tasks. Amosite's earlier double came over 7f and Rough Rock has something to find with the selection on running at this track.
