HAPPY DIVA is difficult to oppose at Wetherby as she goes in pursuit of back-to-back victories.

Kerry Lee's charge acquitted herself well in maiden company with success but had her limitations exposed in a Listed event at Newbury in November.

She made her handicap debut at Fontwell on Boxing Day and made a mockery of her mark of 114 with a bloodless victory.

The handicapper has handed her a 16lb hike but she contests the three-mile mares' handicap hurdle under a 7lb penalty and should make the most of the opportunity. Richard Patrick rides today's nap selection.

DUSTY RAVEN failed to hit the mark in nine Flat outings but his initial second over hurdles suggests he could be good enough to claim something like in the opening Racing UK-sponsored juvenile maiden hurdle.

Coming up against a short-priced favourite, Dusty Raven did himself no favours by taking a strong hold at Fontwell on Boxing Day, but the experience should not be wasted on him here as Noel Fehily takes the reins.

FIDUX prevailed by just a short head on his jumping bow but can keep up the good work in the juvenile hurdle at Ludlow under Wayne Hutchinson.

A dual winner on the Flat in France, Fidux was quick off the mark for trainer Alan King, just getting the better of a bobbing finish at Catterick.

He possibly just idled a little in front before rallying again when headed and looks the type to remain an upward curve.

AMBER MYSTIQUE landed a first career success at Lingfield last week and she can make it a swift double at Wolverhampton's evening meeting.

The four-year-old failed to get her head in front in three starts for Richard Fahey last year but, switched to the care of Kristin Stubbs, Amber Mystique soon grabbed the spotlight for her new handler.

Tried in a Newcastle maiden last month, Amber Mystique had to settle for second on her debut for the yard, beaten just under two lengths in what was her first start since September 2015.

That outing obviously had the desired effect as she was much sharper in Surrey just over a week ago, showing a good attitude to run out a three-quarter-length winner of what appeared to be a decent maiden event.

Amber Mystique must shoulder a 6lb penalty for that success but, given her progressive profile and the fact she remains only lightly raced, the Sakhee filly could have plenty more to give ahead of the 32Red.com EBF Fillies' Handicap.

VOGUEATTI is another that opened her account in the dying days of 2016 who can follow up on her handicap bow in the 32Red-sponsored fillies' handicap.

The four-year-old did not actually make her racecourse bow until last November, when she ran a race full of promise to finish third over 10 furlongs at Chelmsford.

Returned to the same course and distance three days before Christmas, Vogueatti made no mistakes as she saw off Sea Dweller by half a length despite running in snatches a little bit.

She did not travel anywhere near as well as the second that day but still proved too sharp at the finish, which certainly bodes well for the future.

Vogueatti is clearly not one of trainer Marco Botti's stable stars but she can make her mark here off a rating of 75 with Daniel Muscutt in the saddle.

THE BLUES MASTER is currently still entered in the Derby but while his Epsom entry looks well beyond him, the mile-and-a-half maiden at Kempton should be within his compass.

Mark Johnston's charge failed to cut much ice in three turf outings last summer and has shown only limited ability in subsequent all-weather starts. His recent second at Lingfield would represent only fair form but he might not have to be anything special to win here.
