Rulers Kingdom made all over a mile at Lingfield recently to open his account. But he held on by only a short-head to the less exposed DOLLA DOLLA BILL and the latter is fancied to reverse running on slightly better terms. Glorious Caesar and Utopian Lad were both placed over longer trips last time with the former preferred dropping down a grade for this while Dancing Leopard will need to dig a bit deeper off her current mark if she’s to lose her maiden tag. Lethal Shadow should appreciate this extra furlong and makes more appeal than Rapidash of the remainder.
