Lingfield Race 2 - Sky Sports Racing Sky 415 Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
STORM FORCE (1) Was dominant when winning by a margin of 3L last run at Southwell and has been racing in stronger company. Shows good early pace. Change in trainer. Will go close today. GOLD STAR GAZING (3) Had a break from racing and returns to competition. Finished 5th last time at Kempton. Happy to forgive that run and facing less formidable opponents. Showing consistent performance in races. Don't overlook. FRANTIC (4) Looked flat when 5th last run at Leicester. May see an upturn in form and competing in a lower grade. Major player. BLAZING GADEN (2) Ordinary performance when 9th last time at Southwell but back in an easier grade. Likely to get back in the run. Has the ideal draw. Can finish in the money.

Odds of $501.00 and well beaten when 9th last time at Southwell but drops back to a suitable class. Expected to settle towards the rear. Will struggle to compete in this race.

Resumes from a spell. At $2.38 ran 5th last time at Kempton. Happy to forgive that run and matched against a less competitive field. Good chance today.

Odds of $3.00 and average effort when 5th last run at Leicester. May see an upturn in form and will find this grade more suitable. Winning chance.
