3 all-weather meetings today

the most interesting reces at Lingfield this afternoon are the two divisions of the 2yo fillies mile maiden, with some very well-bred fillies making their debut, notably Between Us (Sir Mark Prescott/ Seb Sanders) who runs at 13.40 CET. She is a daughter of Galileo out of a half-sister to classic winner Confidential Lady. Half nn hour later Zaina (Gerald Butler/ Dane O´Neill), a daughter of Shirocco, can take the second division.

Easily the best race at Wolverhampton this evening is the 6 furlongs conditions event at 18.00. Night Lily (Paul d´Arcy/ Luke Morris) ran a great race when beaten a short head by Clinical 4 weeks ago, but she has been well beaten since and we prefer Ocean Bay (John Ryan/ Ryan Powell), who showed tremendous improvement when winning on his first all-weather start at Kempton. Famusa (Marco Botti/ Adam Beschizza) had decent form in Italy but has a huge weight here, which puts her at quite a disadvantage.

At the Irish Dundalk meeting, where there are maximum fields in all races, the top race is also a 6 furlongs conditions event at 19.30. That tough and consistent campaigner Duff (Eddie Lynam/ Kevin Manning) is a confident selection here. He was only narrowly beaten last time over this CD by Gordon Lord Byron (Tom Hogan/ Seamus Heffernan) and reopposes on 17 lbs better terms. Angels Pursuit (Dvaid Marnane/ Shane Foley), having his first race for this trainer, looks a big danger. Lynam can complete a double with CD specialist Denny Crane (Pat Smullen) in the 11 furlongs handicap at 22.25.
