2:45 Lingfield Tips

Largy Go won their point-to-point well at Loughbrickland under Stephen Connor just over 10 months ago and has since been snapped up by JP McManus for a not-so-shoddy £305k. Should have been prepped well for their hurdling and NH debut, and it’s not the deepest of races. Has the potential to be decent and should be taking this for the O'Neill son-and-father partnership. Should start to pay back some of that fee today.

This lightly raced mare showed she can handle the heat when it counts, taking her only career win impressively at Hastings. While she hasn’t run much since, she has proven ability and a sharp turn of foot ??' worth trusting to get the job done if she’s ready to fire.

He has proven his capabilities over hurdles at Lingfield, especially with a notable 2nd place in a Class 4 novice hurdle in December on good-to-soft ground. Even though his last performance over this C&D was not up to par, he is still viewed as a big player and has solid chances of placing at this venue. Longer would suit him better, but each-way seems to offer excellent value over this trip.

He was held when 5th/14 at Southwell on his hurdles debut in December, but he improved slightly to a bit closer when 5th/12 at Leicester on heavy ground, suggesting he has scope to improve second time up on today's heavy ground. Jockey Freddie Keighley claims 7 lb once again, so he is taken to make the frame today.

Good 3rd recently at Hereford, especially given failure to settle. Gingell takes over here, and, granted, settling better, is value to be in the frame.

Nearly a year off since the last race and could have strengthened up. Looks a massive price for a Moore horse with places open and could be a value each-way pick.
