Auld Toon Loon (Tom Dascombe), Fantasy believer (Ed Walker) and Lia Rosa (Rae Guest) completes the lineup.

2.14 Lingfield – Monsieur Beaulieu and Zandita trappy handicap contest

The Win £1m on BetMGM Golden Goals Handicap (2.14) looks competitive with several who have a good chance of getting this award.
