ARCADIAN NIGHTS (3) bids for a hat-trick following a neck success in a handicap tackling 2000m at Lingfield AW. Leading contender. ETRETAT (9) scored by 0.75L a 2000m handicap at Lingfield AW three starts ago. Holds ability to go close. AL WAQIDI (2) previously indicated promise.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run won by a neck at Lingfield All Weather February 16 over 2000m defeating Hitched carrying 61kg at $4.30. The run before that won by 1.5 len at Chelmsford January 30 over 2000m defeating Urban Sprawl with 62kg at $6.50. In great form and should be right in the thick of things again.

Second-up. First-up after five months ran last of 9 at Lingfield All Weather on February 16 over 1600m, 7 len behind Bravo Zulu with 57.5kg at $67. Previously second-up from last on the turn 6th of 9 at Lingfield All Weather on February 19 2024 over 1600m, 3 len behind McLean House carrying 59kg at $67. Has won second up before but this looks a bit rich.

Comes off a 29 day let-up. Most recently ran last of 8 at Lingfield All Weather on February 7 over 2000m, 22 len behind Raintown carrying 59kg at $4.50. The start before that 3rd of 7 at Chelmsford on January 16 over 2000m, 1.75 len behind Gordon Grey with 60kg at $2.90. Prepared to forget last start; big chance to make amends.

Second-up. First-up after three months ran last of 7 at Kempton Park All Weather on February 26 over 1600m, 8 len behind Top Of The Class with 61kg at $23. Previously second-up ran last of 9 at Pontefract on April 2 over 1200m, on rain affected going; 16 len behind Close Connection with 61kg at $101. Hard to make a case in this line-up.

Last start 7th of 11 at Southwell All Weather on February 22 over 1600m, 5 len behind Cephalus carrying 57.5kg at $6.50. The start before that came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 8 at Kempton Park All Weather on February 5 over 1400m, 1.0 len behind Enpassant with 61kg at $13. Hard to fault if at his best.
