Verdict

Verdict

SOLAR INVINCIBLE returned to winning ways over this course and distance earlier in the month and a 4lb rise for that success may not be enough to stop him from following up. That said, Comic Strip made a pleasing return when third at Southwell recently and could give the selection plenty to think about. Others to note are Saucy Jane, Angel Numbers and Guernsey Angel.

Top Tip: Solar Invincible (10)
Watch out for: Comic Strip (2)

Alvin's latest run at Lingfield needs upgrading as he was hampered early yet still finished well and he could be suited by returning to turf. There's likely more to come from COMIC STRIP, though, now that he makes his turf debut. He's proven consistent since going handicapping and still gives the impression there's a little juice in his mark with his useful rider's 3lb claim a bonus here. Solar Invincible, fairly treated up 4lb for a recent course win, is a solid contender and comes in as third choice.
