Swiss Diva lived up to her tag as heavy favourite, and won the 1:30 at Lingfield for us

Lingfield

1:30 - This looks to be a fantastic opportunity for the David Elsworth trained Swiss Diva to break her duck. Last time out she was beaten into 2nd place as a short price favourite after trying to make all. She was, however, some way clear of the rest of the field and it is still rated as a decent performance. She led for most of the race and was then ridden over 1f out, but was then headed and unable to quicken inside the final furlong. If she can race up to those standards again today she should be very difficult indeed to stop.

Of the rest, Barnezet and Sonhador look to be the biggest dangers.

2.00 - This has the makings of a decent enough encounter as a number of the field have good recent form in the bank. That said I think that this is likely to come down to two from the field. Cool Art has been racing at a level far above this, including a 6th in a Class 3 encounter last time out. He was held up that day at the rear of the field and was never closer than 4 ½ lengths behind the winner for the entire race.

My tip goes to Woolston Ferry who has plenty of experience for his tender years and won very nicely last time out. He was held up in touch, led over 1f out and then ran on well to score by fully 4 lengths. He travelled smoothly throughout the race and clearly appreciated the return to 7f. He is a very consistent type and now that he's back in form he should be difficult to stop.

Of the rest Rio Royale and at a longer price Polly’s Choice may have a say in the finish of this one.
