DUTIFUL SON (12.30) gave Mansfield 6lb and a wafer-thin beating over course and distance last week and should mop up the seller at Lingfield.
The gelding also ran well here in a claimer when a close third to 87-rated Unforgiving Minute and is a reliable type at this level. Dutiful Son looks capable of conceding weight to all six of his rivals.
Paul Nicholls likes to keep a few going on the Flat for his daughter Megan to ride and one of those is VOLPONE JELOIS (1.00).
This horse should be cherry-ripe after two recent outings over hurdles on unsuitably testing ground and Volpone Jelois has form on the level, chasing home useful Mark Hopkins at Salisbury in late May.
With 15 runners going to post he’ll need luck in running from stall 10 but is worth an each-way investment if the price permits.
DASH OF SPICE (1.30) has been found a good opportunity in the Betway-sponsored maiden.
David Elsworth’s colt has had a break since occupying the runner-up spot behind smart Ajman King on heavy ground at Epsom. Sean Levey’s mount has drawn the ideal rails pitch and is preferred over the disappointing Meccabah.
The first-time blinkers saw Meccabah run better at Wolverhampton last month but he has cost me money in the past when well fancied.
I’m quite sweet on the chances of PINK RIBBON (3.00) in the 1m 2f handicap.
The five-year-old benefited from racing prominently in a messy, stop-start contest when winning an apprentices’ handicap at Wolverhampton last week and Pink Ribbon escapes a penalty for that success. Similar tactics can see him prevail again.
Obviously, yesterday’s tips for the re-arranged Wolverhampton meeting still stand, but I’m afraid their prices have collapsed.
