1:43 Lingfield Tips

Front runner seeking hat-trick. Won over course and distance with plenty in hand on penultimate start. Stable going well with a 30% strike rate.

I hope TOOLATETONEGOTIATE wasn't really available at 7/1, as indicated by the RP, or an odds compiler somewhere must have had a moment! Anyway, even at a more realistic 4/1, this filly makes some appeal. Progressive over her career, her last three runs have secured her as a 70+ handicapper, and although this mark appears harsh enough, such things matter little in a 5f race on a track like Lingfield. She comes from behind, so needs luck from stall 1, but we can't predict luck, only analyze the probabilities.

Fiorella Princess has had three improving runs since changing yards in Nov, with the latest being second when back on the Poly. Although up 1 lb for that, I think she could be worth another shot.

This does not look to be BINT HAVANA GOLD's trip, her class, or her track. None of them. Despite, that is an unusual trio of negatives and I can't help feeling a big run is on the cards. Richard Hughes's mare can pull hard and although often held up, I think a more prominent ride over this trip could just see her hit the frame at a price.

This horse is a much bigger price than toolstetodelegate,yet is entitled to challenge that horse on 3lbs better terms,and with improvement likely being very lightly raced. Drops in class here and has a good draw so should go well.
