Admirable gelding can go well off a 10lb lower mark than at this time last year

Betfred Derby Trial
2.30 Lingfield

Autumn Stakes winner Best Solution will welcome a return to turf having failed to shine in two races on dirt in Meydan, but no horse has won this race carrying a penalty for over a decade.

Frankuus ran a pleasing race in the Sandown Classic Trial – a race nine winners of this took in between 1973 and 1997. He will appreciate the longer trip, but still has the 5lb penalty to overcome and was beaten by Apex King at level weights at Ascot in July.
