Musical Soldier (IRE) won the 19:45 Lingfield at SP 4.00. Ridden by Sean D Bowen. Trained by Ollie Sangster.
Yes — the AI top-rated horse, Musical Soldier, won the race (AI score 60.2).
Top finishers: 1. Musical Soldier (IRE) (4.00), 2. Creciente (GB) (3.50), 3. Jackson Street (IRE) (6.00).
The winning time was 1m 22.27s.
Musical Soldier holds a clear edge over the field on these ratings, sitting narrowly ahead of Beau Jardine and a more meaningful six pounds clear of Jackson Street and Creciente, who represent the chief threats in this Class 6 seven-furlong contest at Lingfield on good-to-firm ground. Beau Jardine will need to find improvement to bridge that gap, while Jackson Street and Creciente would both require something to go their way. On the evidence in front of us, **Musical Soldier** is the confident selection.
