In depth
Verdict
None of these inspire confidence but LIPPY LADY beat higher-rated opposition in a selling race at Leicester recently and should go well again. Sussex Solo won on soft ground here before reverting to his more usual moderate form while Gold Flash finished a close-up fifth at Ffos Las before disappointing at Wolverhampton, though still finished just in front of Caledonia Laird. Heatherdown is back on a winning mark and London Pride slips further down the weights.
