Horse racing tips: Southwell and Lingfield – Steve Mullen’s betting preview for the racing this Friday, March 2

LINGFIELD

2.30 - Mullen's star bet (add to your betslip)

BOLD PREDICTION has been running better than his form figures suggest and he wasn’t a mile off the pace at Wolverhampton last time out.

He likes this trip and track and has tumbled right down the weights. This looks open and he should be in the shake-up.

3.05

MICKEY should be much too strong for these rivals. He was beaten in a bobbing finish here last time against better opposition.

Envisaging can chase him home for the forecast.

CAYUGA is dropping in class after winning at over course and distance last time out.

He was good value for the victory and it will be a surprise if he cannot go in again.

4.10

MITCHUM SWAGGER operated as a decent level on turf, including holding his own at Group level.

He was out of sorts on his last run at Ascot in October but should find things a lot easier on this debut for Ralph Beckett.

4.45

GOLDEN FOOTSTEPS didn’t get the run of the race when a close second here last time. He was unlucky to be beaten a neck after picking his way through the field.

Provided he’s closer to the pace, this should be well within his grasp.
