Lingfield Park is making it a solid gold January with the inaugural Winter Million meeting which promises over a million pounds in prize money over a stellar three days.

The centrepiece race is the Sovereign Handicap Hurdle worth a cool £100,000.

Lucky Max leads the Irish raiders for Sean Thomas Doyle and his gelding is chasing a four-timer.
