There was little between Barking Mad and runner-up Holy Eleanor at Lingfield earlier in the month when both finished less than a length behind the winner. But the latter had earlier been well beaten by RICHARD R H B in a handicap over course and distance and David Loughnane’s charge looks worth sticking with raised 4lb given the third has subsequently won. Little Ted posted an improved effort over track and trip last month but Interrupted Dream is now 10lb higher than when scoring at Kempton in September.
