      Verdict

      DESERT FALCON made every yard on fast ground at Lingfield on his reappearance and first start gelded having undergone wind surgery. The drop back down in distance should not be a problem and he makes his handicap debut along with Revisit. The latter won on the Polytrack last summer while Airshow won at Goodwood a week ago and is preferred to Savannah Smiles, who landed a lower grade sprint on the all-weather. Some Nightmare has won three times here though off lower marks.
