Saturday 4th January 2014

Lingfield's card is decent and we have two selections there.

2.00 Lingfield Presumido 5pts win @ 5/1 (Generally guaranteed)

Won impressively over course and distance last time out and appears to have been put away for this race. The 5lb claimer has been riding quite well and knows the horse from last time out. A 5lb rise underestimates what Presumido achieved last time out (won very cosily) and he is taken to defeat Joyously, whom he looks fairly closely matched with but is 2.5 times the price of.

3.45 Lingfield Indian Jack 5pts win @ 8/1 (Bet 365, Ladbrokes, guaranteed, 15/2 generally guaranteed) - WON

Ran well in a handicap here on his penultimate run and that race looks stronger than todays. Luke Morris is booked to ride and the stable have a history of sending out big Saturday winners at this track during the winter season. The Great Gabrial, who is 3/3 at this course, is probably his biggest danger, but Indian Jack might just have a class edge on him. The selection has run well after a similar break in the past, and the jockey booking would suggest new connections have him fit after his break and are keen to get a win under his belt.

Profit & loss: day: +32.50 / month: +22.50 / year: +22.50
