Lingfield Race 4 - Read Meg Nicholls' Blog At Betmgm.co.uk Restricted Maiden Fillies' Stakes (GBB Race)
DESERT BELLE (5) 3yo first starter by Masar for Sir Mark Prescott. Keep your eye on the market. SOVEREIGN BRIGHT (8) First run back from a break. Finished 5th last time at Kempton. Expecting improvement and has a good draw. Should muster plenty of early speed. Goes very close. ATHENA'S WAR (1) Resuming after a break. Gave ground when 4th last time at Newmarket. Ear muffs go on for the first time. Will be positive in the run early. Can win this. GIFTS DIFFERING (3) Narrowly beaten last time at Chelmsford but challenged by weaker competitors. Will be trying to topple them late. Gets a favourable stall. Has to carry more weight this time. Modest chance for multis.

At $26.00 finished 4th last start at Wolverhampton but having second career run. The large claim from Ashley Lewis helps. Place hope.

Narrowly beaten last time at Chelmsford but stepping down to a lower level. Will be hitting the line strongly. Has a nice advantage with a good draw. Place claims at best.

Backing up quickly. Started $12.00 and struggled with the pace when 7th last run at Chelmsford but fitter for debut run. Might have to make up considerable ground. Prefer in an easier race.

Back after a 32 week break. Odds of $41.00 and came in 5th last start here. Prefers to settle towards the rear. Tough ask.
