      Verdict

      None of these can be easily dismissed in a difficult sprint to call but MYTHMAKER went close in Listed company at Lingfield last time when separating higher rated rivals. He may be the answer. Lightscameraction won a Listed race over 5f at Lingfield early this year and Final Venture was beaten less than a length when fourth over the minimum trip in the Beverley Bullet back in August. Gentlemen is closely matched with Spring Loaded on last month’s running at Kempton and then finished ahead of Dougan when runner-up in this grade over track and trip.
