Bank = £5,525

Nothing to get to excited about today, but I’ve found a couple I like the look of.


15:00 Exeter Call to arms £300 win 9/1

Finished 2nd over this trip at Bangor last November. Was too keen throughout and possibly found the going too soft that day, Much improved lto over 2 miles at Catterick, settled for most of the race (idled slightly in places) and jumped notably well finishing 2 nd to the progressive Mark Twain. Running style should suit this track and should appreciate the better ground today. Well thought of by connections, still improving and if Donald devereux can keep him focused early on should go close in this company.

Race comment:held up in touch on inside, headway to track leaders when blundered 4th, outpaced 3 out, weakened from next**6TH

16:40 Southwell Liberty green £200 win 14/1

A decent sprinter, she has put in some good times to win twice and place once over this distance at Lingfield. A quirky sort and a good break is key as she needs to race up front. Missed the break lto and showed signs of temperament, driven form a long way out to end up ½ a length back from the winner. 1st time cheekpieces should help her to focus. Interesting to see the switch to fibresand, pedegree suggests see has a good chance of taking to the surface. Is not afraid to battle, and if in the mood I think can be capable of a big race today.

Race comment:chased winner, ridden halfway, weakened over 1f out**4TH
