A winner in France, NEFF was having only his second start for Gary Moore when scoring on the Turf at Lingfield. He’s taken to defy a 3lb rise and get the better of Ghazan. The latter has posted improved efforts here recently while attempting to lose his maiden tag while Street Poet is usually in the mix at this level though both previous course wins came over a shorter trip. Clive Clifton was placed in a lower grade back in March and has just the one win in 28 attempts on the Flat while Manfadh has gone off the boil since scoring over track and trip in January.
