Verdict
Right Touch has been thereabouts at Lingfield and has the beating of both Mickey and Unforgiving Minute. He can figure again along with Twin Appeal, who finished in front of third-placed EXCHEQUER when winning over track and trip in December. But the latter re-opposes on more favourable terms and having gone close at Lingfield subsequently, it could be his turn today. Custard The Dragon and The Great Wall have both been winning at Southwell and the former John Gosden inmate Hayadh is worth a second glance on his first start since 2015 given his progressive form as a two-year-old.
