Verdict
Pandar easily beat Anonymous John in a seller on Turf on Lingfield in August but was then only fourth at Brighton and is held by the hat-trick seeking Upavon on collateral form. Equistar also arrives in good form while Sixties Sue has been competing in much better races. Gin In The Inn also has a squeak and Joe Packet can never be left of calculations here. Don't Blame Me would need to transfer his all-weather form back to Turf to figure, however, and Vimy Ridge struggles to get his head in front while the handicapper may have reeled in King Of Spin. MENAI has only won a Lingfield maiden so far but has acquitted himself well in handicaps subsequently and is probably still on a fair mark.
