Lingfield - Fri 4th Sep

[fintron]

3.50 Lingfield Street Power has been in great form of late and bids for the four-timer tomorrow. Jeremy Gask's gelding won over course and distance in February and should get the race run to suit here. He must defy an 8 lb hike in the weights but won comfortably last time and may still be ahead of the handicapper. Viking Spirit is back down to a decent mark and showed signs of a revival at Ripon recently. He has a number of placed bits of form to his name on polytrack, so he is my saver, along with Dark Mischief, who won a hot looking three year olds race at Newmarket on his comeback run this season and takes a drop in class by lining up here. Street Power 5/2 Bet 365, 2 pts win Viking Spirit 10/1 Bet 365, 0.25 pt Dark Mischief 12/1 Bet 365, 0.25 pt 4.50 Lingfield Sir Michael Stoute has a good strike rate at this track (24-114) so his Almuktahem could go well at a price. Visored for the first time when winning a maiden here in July, he never settled when last seen at Chester, when also poorly drawn. Given he acts at the track, on the surface and is unexposed over the trip, further improvement could be forthcoming from the Green Desert colt. 9/1 Bet 365, 0.75 pt EW (3 places, 1/5 odds).

Re: Lingfield - Fri 4th Sep 3.50 Lingfield Jaconet seems to be back into form again after finishing 3rd in the Stewards sprint cup and goodwood then really bounced back when back on the all weather at wolverhampton winning by 3/4l is only raised 5lb for that but seems to be a horse that is capable of back to back draw may not help today though, also like the look of streetpower loves the all weather having had 9 runs and finished first 5 times and second once, is seeking a 4 timer today and looks capable after winning super easily last time out and is raised 8lb for that. 0.5pt win streetpower 5/2 bet365 bog 0.5pt win jaconet 4/1 bet365 bog 4.20 Lingfield Come on buckers bounced back to something of hise best last time out when 2nd in a toughish looking stakes race, could be well treated on previous although never getting his nose in front, blinkers re applied today and is drawn well. Fitz again looked well in when 3rd behind come on buckers in same race, and on same terms again be interesting to see which one goes better. 0.3pt win come on buckers 0.2pt win fitz 4.50 Lingfield Bab al salam won his maiden round here in cosily style over 7f then stepped up to mile for handicap debut raised 5lb for that effort and more improvement likely after looking slightly green in final stages and step up in trip should suit well too. 1pt win bab al salam 2/1 bet365 bog 5.20 Lingfield Maslak bounced back to some form last time out in heavy conditions at hamilton, could be well treated on aw form previously winning off a 5lb higher mark but that was nearly 2 years ago, needs to continue progression again today. General ting was progressing nicely after being stepped up in trip and was 2nd on all weather at great leighs off a 2lb lower mark prescott runners in fine form again and shouldnt be a problem having had nearly a year off. Brief look won her maiden round kempton extremely comfortable and could be well treated on handicap debut after finsihing 2nd by 5lengths to sana abel who is rated 72. 0.5pt win brief look 0.25 pt e/w General ting 5.50 Lingfield Six diamonds beat 2 of these last time out in six wives and lucky mellor and they will have to go some way to beat six diamonds who won comfortably, six wives has since run again very disappointingly and so should hold her again drawn well in stall 4 0.75pt win six diamonds
