PAPA COCKTAIL can provide in-form trainer Michael Herrington with another winner in the Fitzdares Sprint Series Handicap (7.20) at Windsor on Monday evening. The seven-year-old son of Churchill, a seven-time career victor, has been off the mark since scoring at Wolverhampton in January but showed promise last time out.
Papa Cocktail's Recent Form
In his latest outing at Doncaster, Papa Cocktail finished second to Zubaru, beaten by just one length as a 9-2 shot in an eight-runner field. Ridden by Connor Beasley that day, he came from the back of the pack to finish strongly. Jack Mitchell takes the reins today. Competing from the same mark, 3lb above his last winning rating, Papa Cocktail gets the nap vote to go one better.
Split Elevens at Lingfield
At Lingfield Park, SPLIT ELEVENS is expected to perform well in the Free Tips On attheraces.com Handicap (6.40). John Butler's eight-year-old returned to winning ways over seven furlongs at Wolverhampton three starts ago and then went down by half a length to Enpassant over course and distance. In his most recent start, Split Elevens finished fourth to Lessay at Wolverhampton 15 days ago, lacking a strong pace to aim at. A different scenario is anticipated here.
