The Betway Heed Your Hunch Handicap (Div. II) (2.40) may well be aptly named, because…
1.45 Lingfield, Wednesday, December 20
The 32Red.com Nursery Handicap (1.45) at Lingfield on Wednesday is a competitive little heat for the grade, but may provide Motown Mick with an opportunity to open his account on Polytrack. The Intikhab gelding has run respectably on both visits to Kempton, most recently when a never-nearer third of five, beaten 2¾ lengths, in a 0-90 nursery handicap over 7 furlongs six weeks ago. Richard Hannon’s charge will be suited by returning to a mile in due course but, for the time being, 7 furlongs around Lingfield – where late pace is vital – may be sufficient to show him in better light. One or two of his rivals like to race prominently so, hopefully, he should have a decent pace to aim at.
Selection: Lingfield 1.45 Motown Mick to win
