Verdict

A race limited to inexperienced riders, where the use of the whip must be restricted to corrective use only. Seek The Fair Land was successful for this rider Jane Elliott at Lingfield recently, but at the age of ten will always be vulnerable to younger rivals. Baltic Prince, squeezes into this race off a mark of 72 (the result of recent changes to the Handicapping system) and is taken to follow up his late November Course and Distance success for a stable in sparkling form of late. 1. Baltic Prince 2. Stormbound 3. Seek The Fair Land
