12.45 Lingfield: Weekly £5 Free Bet With BetUK Handicap: I’ve got two selections from Lingfield on Friday and the first of which comes within the 12.45 which is a Class 5 handicap over five furlongs. I like Gogo Yubari here for the team of Dylan Cunha and Morgan Cole who takes off five pounds. She was only a length and a quarter behind the winner when finishing fourth at Wolverhampton on her most recent start just a few days ago, and remains on her last winning mark. She also has the added bonus of her rider’s five-pound claim coming off his back as well as a fine record at this track. Everything looks set up for a bold showing. Gogo Yubari – 9/2 (Each-Way)
3.45 Lingfield: £30 In Free Bets With BetUK Handicap: My second selection comes within the 3.45 which is Class 6 handicap action over a distance of two miles. I’m with the Charlie Johnston trained Arch Legend here, the mount of Archie Young who also takes off five pounds. He’s unexposed over this trip and ran well over the course and distance here on his latest outing when finishing second and a length and three-quarters behind the winner just over a week ago. He remains on the same mark here as he was for that run and progression could be on the cards. Arch Legend – 9/2 (Each-Way)
