Lingfield Race 4 - Nicholls & Clarke 150Th Year Anniversary Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
SEA POETRY (3) was always doing enough when recording a neck-win on Newmarket debut in November. Reappeared securing a close second this month under Richard Kingscote at Kempton. Fancied racing second-up. POLYGRAM (11) improved to deliver a gutsy runner-up effort following a prolonged battle with the eventual winner at Newcastle in latest. Well clear of third that day and looks the main danger. Dubawi filly HEADMASTER (5) is a newcomer who commands respect. Any big market moves for TRAVEL AGENT (7) are to be noted resuming.

At the latest run 4th in a small field at Salisbury on May 15 over 2000m, 22 len behind Arabian Force carrying 64.5kg at $81. The run before that ran last in a small field at Huntingdon on April 19 over 3200m, 19 len behind Give It To Me Oj carrying 68.5kg at $21. Hard to have this tough line-up.

Jumped as a despised roughie at debut, ran last of 7 at Leicester on May 10 over 1400m, 11 len behind Dark Tornado with 59kg at $81. Can't see him playing a major role.
