The aptly-named LINGFIELD BOUND has in fact done the vast majority of his all-weather racing at Lingfield and has won twice there since November. He was beaten only a length off today's mark a fortnight ago and is taken to go one better on his debut at this track, confirming superiority with Catbells, Fonterutoli and Mutajaaser in the process. There is not much between Round Won and Negotiation on their latest running here and they can figure, while Understory is one to note on his comeback after showing good progress on the turf last year.
