Lingfield October 27th.

Spotted two here, number one:

STEED's record on turf is two wins from 16 runs and on all-weather tracks five from seven. Think that speaks for itself and that is reflected in his official ratings, 68 when running at Leicester on Monday and 94 at Lingfield for this race. Based on this race that mark doesn't look too harsh, in touch but slightly outpaced one out, running on when taking a bump but kept on well.


His trainer, Richard Guest, is not the easiest to work out but the horse is in fine form and is capable of winning races off this mark. No near at hand engagements.


and number two:


NIBANI  was bought by his present connections from the Ballymacoll Stud and Sir Michael Stoute in August of this year and is now beginning to show very good form. His penultimate effort at Kempton resulted in third place beaten 3/4 length and here he was beaten just a head. I didn't think he had a lot of help from Amy Scott (5) in the saddle here, she just wasn't strong enough. Trouble is, I know the owner is a strong supporter of Amy and he is likely to stay loyal to her. 


Having said all that I now see that Fergus Sweeney takes the ride on Nibani at Wolverhampton this evening.


Good luck.
