Lingfield Race 2 - Sky Sports Racing Sky 415 Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
STORM FORCE (1) got off the mark on his return to the track at Southwell a fortnight ago tackling a 1200m maiden. Connections find the perfect opportunity and he may go back to back continuing his forward progression. GOLD STAR GAZING (3) made the frame on three of his four starts. Disappointed at Kempton Park last month when well supported. Adopts a first time tongue strap and visor combination. FRANTIC (4) is yet to triumph in any of her six starts. Continues unexposed on this surface and looks one for the future. BLAZING GADEN (2) struggled at Southwell. Might be in need of a handicap mark.

Third race start. Promising on debut 3rd in a small field at Hamilton Park on May 28 2025 over 1000m, 5 len behind Azizam carrying 60.5kg at $1.60. Returned from break favourite; won by 3 len at Southwell All Weather on August 16 over 1200m defeating Poison Arrow carrying 60.5kg at $3. Sure to go well again. Perfectly placed to take care of the small field.
