Once again the weather has intervened and I will (sensibly?) focus my attentions on the Kempton all-weather card this evening where we have a far better idea about the going.
The opener at 4.00pm is a mile and a quarter maiden restricted to fillies and with a big field, luck in running may yet play a part.
The Gosdens arrive mob-handed with three entries in Faifa, newcomer Jane Temple, and the twice-raced Sea Journey, the mount of Kieren Shoemark.
Fourth on her sole start last season at Newmarket on heavy ground, the daughter of Sea The Stars reappeared at Lingfield for her all-weather debut over this trip when she was beaten a neck by Winston’s Tipple when a slow start hardly helped her chances. Expected to learn plenty from the experience and with the likelihood of improvement to come, a clear run may see her make it third time lucky here.
