Dubawi Light won at Kempton in November but has his first start of the year and VICTOR’S BET is preferred. The latter scored over 7f last month under Ella Smith and she was also on board when successful over course and distance back in 2014. Recent Brighton runner-up Pink Ribbon is partnered by a leading amateur in Serena Brotherton while Estibdaad went close at Kempton last time and has won under today’s amateur before. Space War and Joanna Mason landed one of these events at Lingfield last time and Cartographic could be thereabouts once again.
