It was great to get a win for Willie Muir on Sunday with Data Protection. He’s so consistant and I’m proud to have returned to the winners enclosure with him a couple of times now. This was a gutsy performance and it’s another indication of the great form that the Muir Stables have been in this season. Long may it continue.

Now on to Lingfield were I pick up two rides on the All-Weather.
Looktothelight
Lingfield (18:00)
I partner Looktothelight (18:00) for Jamie Osborne as he heads for the 1m4 handicap at Lingfield. This will be his first time stepping up in trip, but he has shown previously that can stay. His last run was off the back of a break on testing ground, so with that run under his belt he should show improvement back on the AW.
Deftera Lad
Lingfield (19:30)
Next, I partner Deftera Lad (19:30) for Sylvester Kirk as he drops back to 7f. He’s won over this trip on the AW, so I’m hopeful he will be in the mix at the business end of the race.
