Nunc Est Bibendum Aims for Third Consecutive Win at Lingfield
This Monday promises to be an exciting day for racing fans, with Sky Sports Racing broadcasting events from Lingfield and Hereford, culminating in an evening of action at Wolverhampton's all-weather track. One of the highlights of the day will be Nunc Est Bibendum's attempt to secure a hat-trick in the Midnite, Building The Future Of Betting Handicap. Since being acquired by Gary and Josh Moore in November 2024, this mare has shown significant improvement, achieving her first career victory in December and following it up with an impressive win at Southwell. As a result, she has been assigned a new mark of 70, reflecting her enhanced performance. Her main challenger is likely to be Young Endless, who, despite being winless in three attempts at Lingfield, managed to achieve a hat-trick in November last year. The field is completed by Prince Quattro and A Tickatickatiming, both of whom have displayed inconsistent form. Meanwhile, at Hereford, Looping d'Arc will face 13 opponents as he seeks to build on his maiden victory at Southwell. With only two starts under his belt, he has already generated interest, having finished second in a bumper event won by El Cairos in 2024. His form was further bolstered by the subsequent performance of Bass Hunter, who won a prestigious Listed bumper at Ascot. Looping d'Arc will be up against Lady Magic, who is chasing a hat-trick on her debut for the Tom Symonds team, as well as Donegal and Guardami Ancora, who have both shown promise in their recent outings. Additionally, Comprador, a full brother to Flying Childers winner Trillium, will make his debut at Lingfield, drawing attention due to his impressive breeding. Tactical Blitz, ridden by Holly Doyle, is expected to pose a significant threat to Comprador on his debut.
