Verdict

DOUBLE TROUBLE should be up to landing this and is likely to be a short-price to do so. She's found one too good on her last two starts at this track, but it's still better form than any of today's opposition have so far managed. The best of them looks to be Bull Five, who has also been runner-up the last twice at Lingfield, while Lucky Dime has plenty to find with the selection on earlier running here. Call Me April's dam was a multiple winner and she makes more appeal than fellow newcomer Pastures New.
