All-weather racing at Lingfield and Kempton

Two all-weather flat meetings today, but neither at Kempton or Lingfield can any fireworks be expected. "Best" race of the day is the class 4 handicap over 2 miles at 16.00 CET at Lingfield. All 8 runners bring decent all-weather form into the race, whch is possibly best left to the two lightly-weighted and very consistent 3yo´s Azabu Juban (John Jay/ William Carson) and Epsom Salts (PM Phelan/ Paul Hanagan). German-bred Napoletano (Simon Dow/ Neil Callan) usually runs here and showed a return to form when runner-up last time; he can go one better in the mile handicap at 16.30.

1.Race: Victory Spirit - Grizedale - Nikki Bea
2.Race: Very Well Red - Thabaat - Upstairs
3.Race: Our Day Will Come - Darwin`S Dragon - La Verte Rue
4.Race: Fyodor - Desert Dreamer - Mutamared

Littledodayno (Michael Wigham/ Franny Norton) and CD winner Musical Script (Mouse Hamilton-Fairley/ Liam Keniry) look a likely pair in the 6 furlongs race at 17.20, while another CD specialist with good prospects is Bluebell Ridge (Davd Arbuthnot/ Martin Dwyer) in the 3yo event over 1 1/2 miles at 16.50; he has last-time-out winner Berry Bary (Ger Butler/ Hayley Turner) to beat.
