Forecasts

Diamond Cottage (9/4), Be Prepared (5/2), Kitaab (11/4), Vitesse Du Son (11/2), Lucky Mascot (11/2), Whistledown (6/1), Ajrad (8/1), River Wharfe (14/1)

Verdict

Question marks surround the majority of these and AJRAD is the suggestion. He hasn't performed badly at Lingfield the last twice and is now 1 lb below his last winning mark. He may have most to fear from Whistledown, who produced two of her better efforts of 2022 at this course and a recent spin at Goodwood will have blown away the cobwebs. Lucky Mascot will be a threat if building on her latest C&D effort and, if he lines up here rather than at Thirsk, Kitaab will also be a player.
