La Roca Del Fuego ran below par bidding for a hat-trick at Lingfield when behind the easy winner LOTHIAN. The latter has a hike in the weights to contend with but scored by over four lengths and can go in again. Smokey and Secretfact are others with plenty to find with the selection though Dark Side Prince was winning for the fourth time this year when successful at Wolverhampton and can figure. Michaels Choice is back on a winning mark and is preferred to Storm Melody.
