Verdict
Hipz was due to run yesterday at Lingfield so that run should be monitored, though she seems better over shorter trips. GALA CELEBRATION has yet to win beyond 7f either and is steadily creeping up the weights again but his latest second over track and trip looks the best piece of recent form on offer. Tellovoi is still fairly treated and in good form so looks an obvious danger while Frozen Lake won over 7f at Kempton eight days ago. Ted's Brother was first past the post in an amateurs’ race over course and distance last time but lost the race in the stewards’ room. He won here in December under Poppy Bridgwater but that was over 1m2f off a 10lb lower mark.
