Monday night each-way double: Moai and Wallaroo can outrun outsider prices at Wolverhampton

Tipstrr horse racing expert Richard Hutchinson has picked out a couple of each-way prospects that might just combine to produce a lucrative return in the last two races at Wolverhampton.

Ivan Furtado is a good target trainer, who is not blessed with deep-pocket owners, so he has to get his winners in lower-grade racing, and his horses can get punted when they are ready.

He picked up Moai at the French horses-in-training sale for 17000 guineas, which looked like a bargain considering he had won two races over a mile and more and was placed in a Group 3.

Moai joined Furtado on a mark of 99 (postmarked a high of 103) and the trainer proceeded to drop him in trip to seven furlongs for his first four runs in the UK.

He went in my tracker after the first two, when it looked like he might have been trying to get him down a few pounds by running him over an inadequate trip.

Suggested bet: Moai each-way in the 20:00 at Wolverhampton

After those four recent runs, Moai is down 17 pounds to 82 and is now dropped into a Class 4 (0-80) handicap for the first time at a time he is also stepped back up to a more suitable nine-furlong trip.

He acted well in France over this distance on the all-weather, so he has to be respected here with conditions to suit.
The excellent Jason Hart was on him last time to get a feel for the horse, and with a hood added, connections looked to have lined up a punt with the added excuse that the horse needed an aid to come good.

We are going in a rare two points each way at 33/1 and I'm expecting him to go off a well-supported single-figure price

It looks like Furtado might be going for a stable double with Wallaroo in the lucky last race.

Wallaroo is lightly raced and returned to action two days ago as an unfancied 33/1 shot and I think he ran above stable expectations, only going down by a couple of lengths to finish fourth of 13.

Young apprentice Ellie-May Croot was on board that day and is retained for tonight's ride. She is attached to the yard and with 106 rides under her belt (and 6 wins), she has the experience to be trusted on a progressive horse.
Conditions suit and we can expect an improvement for that latest run, so at 18/1, we must make her a 1-point each-way play.

Suggested bet: Wallaroo each-way in the 20:30 at Wolverhampton

While I don't advise each way doubles as part of my service, I would certainly not put anyone off an each-way double with these two if they fancied it.
