Verdict
RED FLYER has won both outings since joining his current yard and defied a 5lb rise at Lingfield with something to spare. He looks worth sticking with. Percy Willis had the measure of Richard R H B when returning to winning ways over track and trip and looks sure to be in the mix once again while Eagle One has placed off today’s mark since scoring at Southwell in December. Novice winner Najeeba returns to action and makes her handicap debut having beaten a couple of subsequent winners at Newcastle in October.
