Lingfield best bet: Dropping mark offers Pablo Del Pueblo chance to rekindle former glories

Thursday’s UK racing action concludes with this tasty six-furlong sprint that should give Lingfield race-goers plenty to talk about as they make their way home.

20:22 Lingfield:  Get Raceday Ready Handicap  (6 furlongs)

Early market leader Diamond Dreamer appears to hold all the aces after scoring back-to-back successes last month, the first of which was by the width of his nostrils over this course and distance.

He was last seen winning more impressively at Wolverhampton 17 days ago, and with usual rider David Probert busy at Salisbury, Harry Davies has a great chance to continue his promising start to the season.

Anyone looking for each-way value could do worse than consider the merits of Arlecchino’s Gift and Zina Colada, both of whom look capable of defying their double-digit odds, but the word in the Tipstrr camp is that the favourite’s main threat lies with Pablo Del Pueblo.

Simon Dow’s six-year-old has something to prove after 18 winless outings, although that does not tell the full story of some near misses since his last success over five-furlongs at this venue 14 months ago.

He has also won three times over this course and distance, and with his mark having drop 18 pounds since this time last year, he appears to have been given every chance by the handicapper to rekindle former glories.

He was strongly backed to land the odds at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago, and although not up to that particular task, he ran creditably, and with the benefit of Christian Howarth’s three-pound claim, he should be in the mix again here under a further reduced mark.

Suggested best bet: Pablo Del Pueblo in the 20:22 at Lingfield
