LINGFIELD
Race 1 – MILOUFAR 17/10
NILOUFAR is expected to double his tally in the Download The Raceday Ready App Handicap.
The daughter of Tamayuz showed precious little in three outings in maiden and novice company, meaning she entered the handicap arena from a lowly perch of just 46.
She took full advantage on her handicap bow at Chelmsford with a comfortable win four weeks ago and the form looks sound with third placed Profitman winning twice since.
The assessor has not missed Niloufar, slapping her with a 9lb hike, but she is open to further progress and this race will not take a lot of winning.
Race 4 – GOLDEN PATH 15/10
GOLDEN PATH is the pick in the Download The Racecourse App Raceday Ready Restricted Maiden Stakes.
A daughter of Golden Horn, Kevin Philippart De Foy’s youngster was a big eyecatcher when making late gains to finish fourth over a mile on her debut at this track a month ago.
She should be sharper for the experience and with a step up to a mile and a quarter viewed as a positive, Golden Path should prove hard to beat.
Race 6 – MICK’S SPIRIT 9/2
MICK’S SPIRIT was denied a hat-trick when fifth attempting five furlongs in last start.
Produced an impressive four-length victory over course and distance prior and a bold bid is anticipated in the Tips For Every Race At Raceday-Ready.Com Handicap.
Jungle Charm carries top weight with two wins past three outings. Scored tackling track and trip when last seen and will be firmly in the mix.
Thismydream was a Wolverhampton winner prior to a sixth at Chelmsford Racing well and warrants consideration for a placing.
Race 7 – CAPSTAN 4/1
Capstan bids for a hat-trick on return from a nine-week absence. Last seen scoring at Kempton over 1m3f. Steps up in distance but has a strong chance in the Download The Raceday Ready App Handicap.
Hill Station aims for back to back victories following a success at Wolverhampton. Proven attempting the journey and will be a contender.
Tortured Soul ended a winning streak when fifth at Southwell last time, but was not beaten far.
KEMPTON
Race 2 – JAYYASH 5/4
JAYYASH can make it third time lucky in the Try Unibet’s New Acca Boosts Novice Stakes.
A €420,000 two-year-old purchase last spring, the Siyouni colt first stepped foot on a racecourse on Newmarket’s July course in August and was not disgraced in finishing fifth behind subsequent Royal Lodge scorer Ghostwriter when looking in need of the experience.
On the strength of that form John and Thady Gosden’s youngster was odds-on for his second start at Southwell last month, but came off second best in a battle with newcomer Federal Envoy.
The winner has since disappointed in the mud at Pontefract, but Jayyash nevertheless remains a horse of some potential and is backed to get off the mark before moving into handicaps.
Race 3 – ELLADONNA 9/2
ELLADONNA scored for the first time during December attempting a lower level course and distance handicap. Progressive last year and rates highly on return in the Unibet More Boosts In More Races Handicap.
The main danger comes from Hiromichi who produced a one and three-quarter-length victory among this handicap company over 1m at Lingfield on Friday.
Lady Of Arabia has been running well with a track and trip handicap success preceding a solid third here in this handicap grade, so shouldn’t be ignored.
Race 4 – JACKSON STREET 3/1
Karl Burke’s North Yorkshire raider JACKSON STREET could be the answer to the Unibet More Extra Place Races Handicap.
The son of Dany Man has run well in defeat in his last couple of races, notably finishing third in a race that has worked out particularly well at Southwell early in the new year, with the winner Queen Of Zafeen subsequently going close in Listed company and the runner-up Solomon winning easily next time.
An opening mark of 77 for Jackson Street’s handicap bow looks workable, albeit in a competitive heat.
Race 7 – FRAVANCO 6/1
FRAVANCO showed plenty of ability here seven weeks ago when a strong two length second contesting a course and distance handicap.
The five-year-old has a leading chance in the Bet @ Racingtv.Com Handicap if replicating form.
Nivelle’s Magic is consistent. Did well here when a solid fourth in a 1m4f handicap and rates highly.
Be Fair managed a good second at Lingfield tackling a two-mile handicap. Back down in trip on stable debut and holds claims.
