4:00 Lingfield Tips

A lightly raced Irish horse, returning from a break to make his handicap debut in his fourth race over an increased distance. Decent chance in a Class 6 field of seven.

I'm shocked to see this horse second favourite. He was one of the biggest eyecatchers I've seen for a while last time when quietly fancied. Hollie Doyle had him stone last all the way and only asked him for effort on the final bend. As he finished, he ran into the back of horses and was switched extremely wide. He powered home to be 2nd to an interesting, balding handicap project and he should have won. Hector Crouch is a top jockey booking and the stable are going well with a winner and a number of places from their last few runners. This extra half-furlong trip should suit even better. Definitely a winner in waiting and I'll be shocked if it isn't today.

Chilliconcarneigh ??' according to Pace Hint, Chilliconcarneigh is the horse best suited to the current conditions. He is likely to set or closely follow a moderate pace, which on the Polytrack standard course usually favors those at the front. He has accumulated five placings in 11 starts, which guarantees competitiveness but suggests a ceiling in his class. Sean Levey is a reliable jockey with extensive experience on all-weather tracks. Trainer David Evans has recently maintained a respectable 71% of his horses in prize-winning positions.
