BRINTON is fancied to atone for a near-miss at Wolverhampton a week ago by landing the Weekly £5 Free Bet With BetUK Classified Stakes (Div I) (5.17) at Lingfield Park today.

Successful in a similar event over a mile at Southwell three starts ago, the Jonathan Portman-trained daughter of Zoustar ran a creditable third in a handicap over an additional furlong and 104 yards at Wolverhampton next time.

Last Monday, Brinton came within half a length of doubling her career tally in a classified stakes over Wolverhampton’s extended mile won by Quick Away.

But my selection deserves extra credit - Rob Hornby’s mount came from the back in a race where winner Quick Away, third Danehill Star and fourth home Lhebayeb held prominent positions from the start.

Brinton looks capable of lasting home over this sharp mile and a quarter, and another good account is on the cards.

At Wolverhampton’s evening fixture, HEARTRATE gets the vote to add to last month’s course-and-distance score when he takes on nine opponents for the Free Bets With BetUK Bet Club Handicap (8.00).

Mark Loughnane’s five-year-old got the better of the consistent Neptune Legend by a neck and a 3lb rise in the weights looks within range.
