Southwell Race 5 - Come Racing For Free 18Th June Handicap
RASPOUTINE (1) comes off a strong last-start win at Lingfield and looks well placed in this grade. ANEIRIN'S SWORD (2) has been consistent, finishing in the placings four of his past five and dropping from Class 5 company. LEXINGTON EXPRESS (3) brings solid recent form, including a win two starts back and a narrow second last time. CLEAR ABOVE (4) has placed at Southwell but needs to lift on recent efforts. The main chances appear to be Raspoutine (1), Aneirin's Sword (2), and Lexington Express (3).
