Course form is 515. First time visor should not be a concern He has a 1 of 9 in first cheekpeaces and 2 of 8 first time blinkers from experinece. 10pts to win @ SP Lingfield 2:50 Lone Wolfe Consistent and offers great value here. 14-1 RPF. 233313 for his last 6 - all over standard surfaces. 1233313 lifetime record on the all-weather. All runs in fields of at least 8 and up to 14 and never beaten farther than 2 lengths. Onyl 7 running here but definitely worth the price from what he's done. 3pts ew @ SP

Sgt Schultze was a shock winner over a mile and a quarter at Great Leighs and he steps back up to his favourite trip of a mile and a half here. He’s up 7 lbs now but goes well at Lingfield and can’t be entirely ruled out. However, the one that appeals at a bigger price is John Terry. Amanda Perrett’s gelding has run into Sgt Schultze many times in the past but has typically been giving weight away. That isn’t the case tomorrow and after beating the Sgt when conceding 2 lbs last February he looks very well treated gaining 4 lbs here. The other piece of interesting form with John Terry is his third to Philatelist, who is top weight here. The latter was conceding 2 lbs to JT that day, but tomorrow that increases to 10 lbs and there is every chance JT can now overturn that form. He has the class to win a race in this grade having won a 0-100 handicap worth £9k to the winner in the past. He also goes well fresh so the fact he returns from a 85 day break does not appear to be a problem. 7/1 Bet 365 EW

Teasing is at the top of my list of horses to follow next time out. Since her trainer stepped her up in trip she has looked a winner waiting to happen, chasing home the unexposed <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />

Vine Street

and most recently Slip over this trip. Her effort last time out was very impressive as it came in a claimer where she was 5 lb wrong with the winner, so she must be of obvious interest now stepping back into a handicap. She’s now 9 lbs lower than her last win, which came in this grade, so looks very well handicapped. 13/2 SJ
