Verdict
Spark Fury started favourite for what turned out to be a very rough race at Lingfield on Friday and didn't get the clearest of runs. NURSE FLORENCE (NAP) was one of the chief sufferers in the race and did well to finish as close as she did so Jamie Osborne's filly is taken to go one better. The Good Ting, a winner at Lingfield in August, was back on a winning mark at Kempton earlier this month and duly obliged for which she's been raised 5lb. Mid Day Rush was beaten less than two lengths in that latter event so should get closer under the revised terms.
