    No match for the winner in a small field at Lingfield last time when in new cheekpieces but his record here (2-2) heightens interest.

    J: Edward Greatrex

    T: Robert Cowell

    Gained both wins in 5.2f Brighton nurseries last summer; close second of four at Yarmouth (5f, good to firm) last month, his second start this season, but didn't fire at Windsor a fortnight later; needs to respond well to first-time cheekpieces and prove himself on an AW surface.

    Front-runner who won a Lingfield AW novice last August; capable of winning off this mark and feasible excuses in last two races, on account of soft ground (watch the weather) and pulling too hard; not ruled out.

    Betting Forcast

    11/4 London Is Blue, 7/1 Loleeta, 11/2 Havana Jag, 11/2 Beach Partee, 7/2 My Mate Mackley, 100/30 Shining Guest

    Verdict

    A small field but a strong pace looks on the cards as Loleeta and My Mate Mackley (second choice) won’t be hanging around. It could set up nicely for strong traveller LONDON IS BLUE (nap) who is 2-2 at this track. None of the six are ruled out.[Alistair Jones]
