The East leads Racing League following night two at Wolverhampton, on a card where six of the seven teams sent out winners. The East tops the table with 289 points after leapfrogging London & The South (270) and Scotland (259), although Charlie Fellowes’ side is the only team to have played both allocated jokers.

Scotland bids to capitalise on a strong opening night as Racing League switches to the all-weather at Wolverhampton for week two on Thursday, July 31. Now under the leadership of broadcaster Alex Steedman, Scotland sits just two points behind leader London & The South after both teams sent out three winners at Great Yarmouth last week.

The winning time set by Tuco Salamanca in the 6-furlong handicap at 6:10 was 2.92s faster than the TPD expected time for a Class 4 handicap on soft ground. Jimmy Speaking won the mile handicap 30 minutes later in a time of 1:37.31, which is 5.63s faster than our expected time figure.
