18:05 Lingfield – Zebra Star @ 7/1
Trainer: Amy Murphy
Jockey: Oliver Stammers
A three-year-old filly who is trying to take advantage of a free-falling handicap mark. She put in her best performance in quite some time when third over this course and distance last time out when chasing home the likes of Naasma and the re-opposing Optik. Having seemingly reacted positively to the hood and the cheekpieces last time, it is interesting to see that they remain in place. She is slowly and steadily finding her way for Amy Murphy since leaving George Boughey and no surprise if she delivers a career-best performance today.
19:30 Doncaster – She Wore No Jewels @ 9/2
Trainer: Clive Cox
Jockey: Jason Watson
Looks to build on a highly promising run that came on debut at Goodwood just a couple of weeks ago. The daughter of Ten Sovereigns is fully entitled to build upon that first outing and she will have learned plenty despite finishing almost six lengths behind What A Question last time. Nothing else in this field has displayed such a positive run despite a previous start in this line-up. There should be better to come from this Clive Cox-trained runner and no surprise if she puts her previous experience to good use.
20:15 Lingfield – Essme @ 7/1
Trainer: Rachel Cook & John Bridger
Jockey: Charlie Bennett
The five-year-old bay mare returns to the scene of her only career success to date at Lingfield racecourse and is now off the same mark that she won. She hinted at a return to form when finishing third to Spanish Mane over this course and distance last time out. That was the second time in succession that she had put up a determined effort and she now has to be feared off bottom-weight in this handicap as well as first-time cheekpieces. Charlie Bennett takes over in the saddle for the first time and the pair should give a fairly bold account.
20:30 Doncaster – Cairn Gorm @ 6/1
Trainer: Kevin Phillipart De Foy
Jockey: Dane O’Neill
Has raced off marks far higher than this in the past and could well be about to make an impact in this lowly grade. He won his first three races in a row when trained previously by Mick Channon, but has been sitting fairly much on the sidelines ever since. He was only beaten a little over a length on what was his seasonal reappearance and he is fully entitled to leave that run well and truly behind him. He is fully expected to come on in leaps and bounds for that first run back and can make an impact off this very much revised mark. A lot of his rivals are beginning to look worn now, whereas he remains open to improvement. Every right to be right there at the finish.
