In depth
Verdict
Toro Dorado just came up short in his bid for a four-timer at Lingfield but should be thereabouts again. Clipsham Tiger has had a break but is another who is high enough in the weights at present. Furqaan has been lightly raced, however, and is worth a try over this extra furlong while Mostawaa is eased in grade. TAKEONEFORTHETEAM (NAP) is now a pound lower than when beaten in a finish of heads here in October. He didn’t have much luck at Chelmsford last month and could pick up the winning thread again.
