Rishworthian landed a Redcar claimer before beaten a head in a Lingfield seller. LAXTON LADD didn't show much at Ascot and Newmarket in August but showed promise at Wolverhampton last month when denied a clear run at a crucial stage. He can get the better of Love Of Zoffany, who followed a fine run here early last month with a victory in a Wolverhampton nursery and looks to have more to offer. Soller Bay has shown some potential in both starts while Emulate Rose has a victory over the trip at Wolverhampton under her belt.
