        In depth

        Verdict

        BALTIC PRINCE followed a very good run at Leicester with an all-the-way success over this track and trip last month, when Stormbound was behind, and is only 3lb higher so can complete a double. Gracious George completed a double at Chelmsford in the spring and will have needed his recent comeback on that track while Seek The Fair Land was brought with a sustained run by Jane Elliott to gain his first success over this trip at Lingfield, his 15th all-weather victory. Muzaahim is still a maiden but would have gone close at Chelmsford last time with a clear run so looks a threat but Believe It is still 8lb higher than his last victory at Lingfield in February.
