1/1
Only two wins from 47 attempts and doesn't always look in love with the game. Poor run back on turf latest after a fruitless all-weather campaign but dropped in grade and no forlorn hope on his very best form of last year.

Well-placed to win seven times in his career but not for over a year and his profile is regressive. Tough to make out a case for, both on recent form, and official ratings.

9/4
Twice a winner over this C&D in the past and ran a decent race to finish a 2L third behind Flowers On Venus here last month. Forced too strong a pace at Kempton last time but respected in this grade with cheekpieces back on.

Won on only previous attempt over C&D but arrives here on a long losing run (23 starts) and latest effort at Catterick was uninspiring. Wouldn't be out of it if putting best foot forward though.

Took his winning tally to eight when scoring in this grade over 7f here last winter but it's all been downhill since. Never been able to get competitive in better events recently but couldn't be dismissed in this company.

17:50 Lingfield - 20 April 2017 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Major Crispies is the pick at the weights here if he could be relied upon to put his best foot forward but the simple facts is, he can't. Preference is for BUSH WARRIOR who has shown a liking for this C&D in the past and is better than he showed last time when too aggressively ridden. Archie Stevens has plenty going for him too.
  1. Bush Warrior
  2. Archie Stevens
  3. Major Crispies
