Lingfield Race 1 - Midnite Hever Sprint Stakes (Listed)

Three-time course winner DILIGENT HARRY (1) was fifth in this race last year when staged at Southwell AW while managed to take this in 2024. Provided strong form on return three weeks ago scoring the 1200m Listed Kachy Stakes at this venue. Ticks plenty of boxes as set to follow up. Leading contender. Previously G1 placed VALIANT FORCE (4) ran third in this event last year. Also returned in winning form two weeks ago when successful over 1000m at Dundalk AW (Ireland). Big claims. LEOVANNI (6) produced smart form throughout 2024. Shaped with credit on only outing last year when 1.5L fourth contesting the 1000m Listed Achilles Stakes at Haydock in May. Interesting. DEMOCRACY DILEMMA (3) is an eight-time winner tackling this trip. Next best.

Second run back. First-up after five months won by a nose at this track LR Kachy Stakes January 31 over 1200m defeating Cool Hoof Luke with 58kg at $8. Previously second-up 5th of 11 at Newbury in the G3 Hackwood Stakes on July 19 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind Rage Of Bamby carrying 62.5kg at $13. Key runner who is a great chance to measure up again.

Returns from a 52-day let-up. Last start tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd in a small field at this track on December 31 over 1000m, 0.5 len behind Baldomero with 61.5kg at $3.10. The run before that favourite; won by 1.0 len at Wolverhampton November 8 over 1000m defeating Rhythm N Hooves with 60kg at $4. Will need to do a bit more.

Second-up. First-up after two months favourite; scored a big 4.5 len win at Dundalk All Weather February 6 over 1005m defeating Kerdos carrying 62.5kg at $1.90. Previously second-up 3rd of 11 at Southwell All Weather in the LR Hever Sprint Stakes on February 22 over 1020m, 2 len behind Clarendon House carrying 58kg at $5. The one to beat based on that latest effort. Huge chance on latest and can go on with it.
