I gave myself Friday off but we have a big day of racing at Lingfield on Friday.
14:45, Surrey National Handicap Chase
Passing Well 7/1, 1pt each-way (4 places)
This is a decent renewal of the Surrey National but I like the chances of the consistent Passing Well. I've always liked this horse since I saw him as a novice hurdler. He's always threatened to win a decent race over fences and has been plying his trade over shorter with frustrating results over the past couple of years. He is a course winner however, and that is a big plus as not all horses take to Lingfield. But what I really like is how completely unexposed over this trip he is. He stayed on over 3 miles at Wincanton latest and with Gavin Sheehan back in the saddle I can see him popping along in rear before coming with a late run. He is a solid jumper as well which will be needed over a marathon trip round the Surrey track.
