Verdict

Paddy The Oscar's first win in almost three years at Lingfield came out of the blue and he may not be able to follow up under a penalty. Two-times course and distance winner According To Them is upped in grade after winning by a distance here last month and appears to have a bit to find with BALLYVONEEN on earlier running at this track. Neil King's stayer was a close-up fifth in the Sussex National here last month before pulling up at Warwick and would be tough to beat on his best form. Ringa Bay's recent efforts over fences have lacked sparkle but he does hold Extreme Impact on Uttoxeter running. Possibly Flora returns from a break so is best watched.
