Both Zipedeedodah and FLOWING CLARETS won over 5f on the Turf course at Lingfield last month. The former’s rise in the weights is negated by an apprentice’s allowance but the latter is less exposed and may just edge this with further progress on the cards. Entertaining Ben continues to find one too good and Yarmouth winner Hurricane Alert failed to cope with a 5lb rise last time but Come On Dave could bounce back at any time off his current mark.
