17:42 Lingfield — Drain Detectives Handicap model predictions

Panthere Noir (GB)

0%

13-race maiden; bettered low-key stable debut and belied 50-1 odds when third of 14 at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm; refitted cheekpieces) one week ago; still unexposed over this sort of trip; a possible.

Lucky Sevens (GB)

0%

Opened account when fitted with cheekpieces for turf debut at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) last month and was placed over 1m2f on both starts since, more recently when clear second to much-improved rival at Bath (firm); upped in trip again here; leading contender.

Keep It Classic (GB)

0%

Still a maiden after six starts but lost out only by a short head over similar trip to today's at Haydock (good; wore cheekpieces) three weeks ago, despite racing too freely; might be more relaxed with the headgear left off here; respected.

Song Of The Stars (GB)

0%

Safely held when third in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW) three weeks ago and now 0-6; needs to find something extra on this turf debut.

Head Girl (GB)

0%

Unexposed after only four runs but was unable to justify prominence in betting when down the field on last month's seasonal/handicap debut at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW); needs a good boost from the new cheekpieces.

Timely Salute (GB)

0%

Soundly beaten in both handicaps, more recently when last of nine at Bath (1m2f, firm; Lucky Sevens finished second) this month; bred to be suited by this longer trip but needs significant improvement.

Ada Rose (GB)

0%

Evidently suited by big hike up in trip (from 7f) when third of 11 on last month's handicap debut at Wolverhampton (1m4f, AW); that run came after a break and she could easily have more to offer if handling switch to turf.

Fletcher (GB)

0%

Raced rather lazily and finished about 6l behind Lucky Sevens when fourth on last month's seasonal/handicap debut at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) but has obvious scope to build on that performance over this longer trip.

Naranka (IRE)

0%

Always behind when 50-1 for seasonal debut at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm; Panthere Noir third) one week ago; needs to have taken considerable benefit from that outing.

Mister Pretentious (GB)

0%

Showed no significant promise when a 250-1 outsider for his three qualifying races (1m-1m2f) and makes handicap debut from out of the weights; upped in trip with cheekpieces added.

Out In The Cold (IRE)

0%

Unable to land a telling blow off basement marks in her first three handicaps (1m-1m2f); moves up in trip and tries cheekpieces here.
