Lingfield 30th Jan (AW)

[chris34]

2.45 Lingfield Perhaps not as hot as the first leg of this handicap but nonetheless some useful sorts here and a true gallop should be set with Carcinetto and Imprimis Tagula in the field, both perhaps now look in the grips of the handicapper and should set this up for a finisher and that job lands on Tiddliwinks who has been rather impressive since making debut in the autumn of last year and looks well ahead of the handicapper with an impressive turn of foot and won super easily last time out off an 8lb lower mark but looks open to more and stepping back up to 7f shouldnt be a problem. Aumtun blades has shown some decent form just lately and is effectively only 3lb higher than his win last sunday having won over this course on the saturday and always appears to keep just enough in his tank to keep ahead of the handicapper these days and probert gets on super well with this horse and will enjoy this likely strong gallop. 1pt win tiddliwinks 0.5pt e/w Autumn Blades 3.20 Lingfield A disappointinging weak field and easy to see why they have opted for this race rather than fridays for December Draw, who improved with a good second to a well backed msiter green last time out that was over 2f further but this step back in trip shouldnt cause a problem and although 2lb higher today should give a bold account in weak affair, the biggest threat could be Noble Jack who won a weak maiden over CD couple weeks ago and if improving on that he could go close and worth a watching note. 1pt win december draw 3.55 Lingfield A lot of these look fully exposed and hard to find anything potentially well treated therefore gonna opt for a jockey/horse combination that I like and that is Baylini, who was given an extremely good ride on penultimnate start over CD behind the useful looking bridge of gold before never getting into the race under a different jockey last time out, but hayley back on board today and return to this shorter trip much more likely today and a cracking record around here with all 3 wins coming over this course. 0.5pt e/w baylini

Re: Lingfield 30th Jan (AW) 2.45 Lingfield IMPRIMIS TAGULA was forced to race on the outside throughout the race at Southwell last week, but put in a super display to take second behind Tourist, who enjoyed the shorter passage on the inside. It was a credible effort from a gelding that has been in fantastic form on the all-weather in the last couple of months, and he may be worth a small interest in this race at a value price in case the likely favourite, Tiddliwinks, who looks useful, has an off day. Suggested bet: Imprimis Tagula 15/2 Paddypower, 1 pt win 3.55 Lingfield This looks a top class handicap with plenty of in form types contesting this £10k prize. Suits Me is one of the best middle-distance horses around on the all-weather and returns to handicaps having finished placed behind Tranquil Tiger on his last couple of starts in listed company. Although he will lug 9-12 around on his back here, he relishes these big weights and can often make his class tell, but it is possible that he may become locked in a battle for the lead with Mafeking, who himself arrives in great shape. He plugged on when beaten behind the well-handicapped Bridge of Gold when last seen over this course and distance, and rarely runs a bad ran under these conditions. Winter Fever registered his first victory on these shores when winning over slightly shorter at Wolverhampton two weeks ago. He seems suited by this step up in trip and having won at listed level back in South Africa, he may be able to defy a 4 lb rise in the weights for that success. However, at a bigger prices, The Cayterers and HAZZARD COUNTY are of more interest. Tony Carroll's The Cayterers hasn't had much racing at this trip and stayed on well under less than ideal circumstances to take second behind the well positioned Bound By Honour over course and distance in November. He should run well at a price, as should bottom weight Hazzard County, who shaped well on his recent comeback and has been crying out for a step up in trip, which he gets here. Placed in valuable turf races in 2008 he is also a previous course winner, and he could go well for David Simcock despite racing from 2 lbs out of the handicap. Confidentiality is a model of consistency and should run his usual race and Baylini is another course and distance winner that shouldn't be too far away, but for the winner, we return to Hazzard County, who is likely to be sent off at a value price. My 100 % book Suits Me 5/1, Mafeking 6/1, Confidentiality 7/1, Winter Fever 15/2, The Cayterers 9/1, Hazzard County 11/1, Full Toss 12/1, Baylini 14/1, Samarinda 20/1, Sohcahtoa 25/1, Raptor 28/1. Suggested bets: Hazzard County 14/1 Bet 365, 2 pt EW (3 places, 1/5 odds) The Cayterers 8/1 Bet 365, 0.5 pt (saver)
