12.50 Lingfield: Fire In Babylon @ 6/1 Bet365 - 3pts win
It wasn't difficult to be impressed by Fire In Babylon's most recent performance at Kempton when he travelled nicely in rear but had loads to do from well of the pace while turning for home in a rather slowly ran affair. While the eventual winner had the run of the race, travelling prominently and was able to kick away 2f out Fire In Babylon had to work his way through the field from the rear, yet he ran on very strongly under a hands and heels ride to finish 3rd in the end. He surly looks like a horse that is well ahead of the current mark, which is confirmed by the fact that he's able to race off 3lb below his last winning mark. He's also generally lightly raced for a five year and looks primed for a big run tomorrow. The race looks a really poor one, even though 16 runners at Lingfield can be tricky. But that's the only worry I have. If the hand break is really off then I looks hard to see him getting beaten.
