TEWIN Wood has shown plenty of promise in his three starts to date and is one to follow as he switches to handicap company at Wolverhampton.

The gelding hardly shone on his debut, finishing at the back in a Newmarket maiden, but he improved for the run when claiming fourth at York, with the winner having come out on top again since.

Tewin Wood was not disgraced when third behind a short-priced favourite at Yarmouth and an initial mark of 71 does not seem too harsh in the Bet Premier League Football - Betdaq Nursery.

One horse whose confidence is riding high is Alqaahir, who bids for a Wolverhampton treble in the Bet Asian Handicaps - Betdaq Handicap.

Trained in County Tyrone by Lee Smythe, the seven-year-old son of Swain has made his last two trips pay with a couple of wins over this nine-furlong distance.

His rider hardly had to get serious with Alqaahir as he defied an extra 5lb for his second victory last time, suggesting there is still a little to come from this half-brother to Intikhab.

Alqaahir should be able to shrug off this 4lb higher mark with the minimum of fuss.

Money Trix is a fragile type and has not enjoyed much luck, but he can get his season off to a good start at Carlisle.

The nine-year-old has raced just nine times but he looked a horse of real potential when notching a hat-trick over hurdles before being placed at Grade One level in 2006.

He did not start again until January 2008, when he made a winning chasing bow, but he was sidelined again.

Nicky Richards sent him to Newbury, only to see Money Trix crash out when still holding every chance four from home.

That heavy fall seemed to affect his confidence but a clear round at Kelso in February should have banished those demons.
