Verdict
Mucho Mas had a leading chance at Lingfield yesterday and MOONLIGHTER is preferred. The latter was no match for the winner when sent off favourite and finishing second at Stratford on his debut for a new yard but will be sharper today. File Illico returns to action having won three of four outings early in the year while Song Of Earth went close at Listowel in September and has switched yards since. Winning hurdlers Real Stone and Marco Island make their chasing debuts.
