The new flat season gets under way tomorrow at Doncaster where the feature is the Lincoln handicap.

Doncaster

2.40 The progressive Sirrius Prospect is 2 out of 3 at Doncaster and can get his season off to a winning start.

3.15 Lincoln Handicap – Eton Forever has an excellent record over course and distance and also goes well fresh. He is one for the short list. The lightly raced Fury is potentially well handicapped and acts on any ground. Cocozza was considered good enough to run in a Group 2 last season.

Fury and Cocozza are my two against the field.

The Lincoln handicap was last run at Lincoln racecourse in 1964.

Turf trivia
