4:22 Lingfield Tips

4th three times on the bounce, but won prior to that on this ground for just a pound lower. Also won here last year around April off a much higher mark. Good jockey booking for this.

Michael Appleby won this race last year and could follow up with their runner, Hedge Fund. Is only 1 lb higher than their last winning mark of 73 and has tumbled in the ratings with 17 runs since then. Was far too keen on their seasonal reappearance at Beverley after virtually 200 days off the track. With those cobwebs blown away and now on a competitive mark based on previous form, could well bounce back and start to take advantage of it.

Taking a leap of faith with this selection. Twice a winner in Ireland last spring but has proved inconsistent since joining the Johnston yard. Hector Crouch takes the ride.
