Sophie Ralston – aboard Mirakuhl at Lingfield
THE three stable runners today are all big priced outsiders and face difficult tasks. Starting in the 4.30 at Lingfield, Mikakuhl and Dover Light, ridden by Sophie Ralston and Joey Haynes respectively, line up for a 12-runner median auction maiden stakes over 7f. They are 50/1 and 66/1 shots and have a lot to find on form to trouble the likely winner, Bythebay. Half an hour later, Soaring Spirits is as big as 40/1 for a 0-55 apprentice handicap over 7 furlongs. Seven pound claimer, Eracles Eracleous has his second ride for the yard since coming over from Cyprus. Although well handicapped, “Spirits” is a 10yo and his best days are behind him.
