Lingfield Race 1 - Win 250,000 With Betmgm's Golden Goals Novice Stakes
Disappointing turnout. This race looks a good opportunity for ELEMENTS OF FIRE (1) to get off the mark debuting for Archie Watson. Previously trained by the Gosden yard in Newmarket and was a good winner on debut. Concedes weight to his rivals however looks a cut above these and may prove hard to beat. FREDA (2) delivered an encouraging start to her career finishing runner-up at 1600m here last month. Only 0.5L away on that occasion and warrants thought as might go well. HOLLY MIST (3) was beaten just under 1L at Redcar four and a half months ago. Maintaining a good level of ability is one to note

Jumped at big odds at debut, 2nd of 8 at this track on January 7 over 1600m, 0.5 len behind Space Invasion with 62kg at $34. Likely to hold good form and play a major role again.
