        Verdict

        He's My Best edges the verdict over Lochstar and Danehill Kikin in a tricky curtain raiser to the Lingfield action. Danehill Kikin has experience on her side and shapes as if a maiden would be a formality for her at some point. Admittedly, she has a bit of improvement to find and needs everything to fall into place for her. That said, she is on a fair mark for a handicap and is one to bear in mind for future reference. Lochstar - as his name suggests - has some high-class performers in his bloodlines and is bred to be effective at this trip. He was not knocked about on his debut and can be fancied to show a bit more this afternoon. However, He's My Best created a favourable impression on his Yarmouth debut and, with his yard back amongst the winners lately, this son of Elusive Quality gets the nod on grounds of anticipated improvement.
