We send two runners to Wolverhampton on Friday as Trucial Pearl and Ganthorpe go head to head in the six furlong Win £250,000 With BetMGM's Golden Goals Handicap.

Owned by the Mick & David Easterby 50 Club, Trucial Pearl will be having her second race of the year after showing improved form to finish fourth of 10 to Al Najashi last time at Southwell. Joanna Mason, successful on What What What on Tuesday, will take the ride.

Members of the 50 Club 25 can access the racecard and pre-race details in the password-protected member's area here.

Ganthorpe


Despite being dropped two pounds in the weights for his effort, Ganthorpe also showed improvement when finishing fifth behind The Tunguska Event at Newcastle, beaten just under three lengths. A half-brother to multiple winners Copper Mountain, Ratafia and Acrisius we hope he can follow the family tradition and find some winning form this season. The ride is taken by Cieren Fallon.
Coparisi is the form pick of the race, having finished runner up at Redcar when last seen in October. However, she hasn't the benefit of recent action after a four month break and is also unproven on artificial surfaces having only competed on turf in her six race career.
