UK Horse Racing Tips: Lingfield

Plenty of these make a lot of appeal, but marginal preference lies with LEGAL REFORM, who is now rated 4lb above his last winning all-weather mark following a comfortable success at Catterick last month. The gelded son of Lawman is likely to prove popular following that victory, but Gold Medal steps up in trip having scored over 6f most recently and has to be feared off 3lb higher. Winforglory and Sharvara add further spice to the race.
Prediction : 1st Legal Reform 2nd Gold Medal 3rd Winforglory

SACRED had a mixed few runs last season but lost little in defeat behind Pogo in a Group 2 at Newmarket on her most recent outing in October. She is fancied to deliver a winning return to action here, and the fact she has an entry for the Lockinge later this month must suggest she is showing all the right signs at home. Sandrine struggled in Group 1 company at Longchamp, also in October, but still rates a big threat returning from a break, while Queen Aminatu is another to note for powerful connections.
Prediction : 1st Sacred 2nd Sandrine 3rd Queen Aminatu

Third in a Group 3 at Saint-Cloud on her return to action last month, Be Happy seems a likely contender having shaped with promise on that occasion, but BRIGHT DIAMOND shades the vote. Karl Burke's charge finished a decent third in the bet365 Fillies' Mile at Newmarket when last seen in October and she must hold every chance of building on that Group 1 effort on her Polytrack debut. The fact she has been entered for the Oaks must also make her of significant interest, while Perfect Prophet steps up in trip following a creditable run over a mile at Doncaster last September and is not to ruled out either.
Prediction : 1st Bright Diamond 2nd Be Happy 3rd Perfect Prophet

INQUIRING MINDS bolted up on debut at Newcastle by five lengths for John & Thady Gosden and he beat some much more experienced rivals over 1m2f that day. The son of Kingman has plenty of stamina in his pedigree and he is likely to relish the step up in trip. With potentially a significant amount of improvement to come, he ought to go close. The main threat looks to be Military Order, who put in a taking display at Newbury on his return to action and that winning form gives him a big shout, while Circle of Fire is also respected.
Prediction : 1st Inquiring Minds 2nd Military Order 3rd Circle of Fire

Inaam has been in consistent form of late, with the latest of his efforts coming over 7f at this track when third, and he can go well off the same mark. However, preference is still for BOBBY ON THE BEAT, who failed to fire in a hotter contest last time and he is likely to appreciate the drop in class. The five-year-old is fancied to reproduce the form of his penultimate run over C&D to strike. Suzi's Connoisseur is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Bobby On The Beat 2nd Inaam 3rd Suzis Connoisseur

A chance can be taken on PERFECT SYMPHONY, who hasn't finished out of the top two in his most recent efforts over C&D. The son of Dandy Man was kindly dropped 1lb in the weights for his last run when beaten four lengths into second and he is fancied to go one better. One to consider is Reversion, who only went down by a neck at Wolverhampton last time in this grade, and can remain competitive off 2lb higher. Reckon I'm Hot should also go well.
Prediction : 1st Perfect Symphony 2nd Reversion 3rd Reckon Im Hot

Hughie Morrison won this contest last year when it was on turf and has chances again here with WAGGA WAGGA, who has been gelded since his fifth at Newbury in August. He can go well for a stable in decent form, though if a first-time visor brings out the best in Citizen General, he could be a huge danger along with God Of Thunder, who tries this trip for the first time and may find improvement for it.
Prediction : 1st Wagga Wagga 2nd Citizen General 3rd God Of Thunder

Doonbeg Farmer's last success was over C&D off this mark in March 2022 which suggests he has some chance in a race that may not take much winning, but preference is for CHAGALL. He pulled too hard when only sixth at Windsor last time out, but the seven-year-old has won here over a mile and placed over this trip at Bath, and a repeat of either performance could be enough. Sarkha sports first-time cheekpieces and may prove best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Chagall 2nd Doonbeg Farmer 3rd Sarkha
