Verdict

Lord Riddiford has a good strike rate on the all-weather though has to race off a 7lb higher mark back on this surface having gone close at Nottingham. Khabib won over track and trip in September when LIPSINK finished second but the latter re-opposes on more favourable terms having subsequently been narrowly beaten back here. Captain's Bar won a seller at Lingfield earlier and went close again at Kempton last time albeit in a lower grade.
