In depth
Verdict
Lilo Lil had little to beat at Lingfield but had shown promise earlier and is likely to make a bold bid to defy top weight. Anfield ran her best race so far at Leicester last month while Yellow Lady might have been interesting with a better draw but we give one more chance to PARADISE CHILD. She is gradually getting the hang of things and wasn't beaten far at Ffos Las last week.
