Verdict
BREATH OF SPRING won at 50/1 when dropped back down to today’s trip at Lingfield and is 6lb higher. But he returned a clear winner on that occasion and still has scope for further progress. Kingsley Klarion finished runner-up here last time though has only won once since 2016 while Secret Potion looks no nearer to ending a long losing run. Blue Cable is less exposed than most and will be sharper for last month’s outing and Presumptuous goes handicapping for the first time.
