1:12 Lingfield Tips

Fravanco performs best coming from behind. If the race starts at a fast pace, his finish will be crucial. He's coming off a very close third-place finish just 48 hours ago, losing by only half a length. If he recovers well, he'll be in contention. Trainer: Tony Carroll. He's extremely dangerous at Lingfield, where he often 'punches' horses that are running on short rest.

The market leader looks a little short here, so I am going to look beyond and, for some better value, go with Starfighter, who has placed in the last couple and could easily improve.

The 5yo got going too late two weeks ago but he should be better for the run after returning from a 15-week break. He’s had more bad days than good, but the yard has been in good form this year, he’s down to a handy looking mark and in this amateur riders’ handicap he has one of the best jockeys on board. Worth a punt at a big price.

This is real basement stuff but the jockey in this amateurs race was 2nd at 100/1 on her off a 1lb higher mark in January when beaten just half a length. The horses style of racing would suggest this step up in trip should suit. The first time tongue tie should also be a positive and there are positives on breeding since the sires progeny often race off higher marks than this.

Getting on now and not had much racing in recent years, but this type of amateur race could suit and has a very good record when going fresh, so worth Ew consideration here @ current 33/1.
