Spring Mile / Lincoln Video Preview
To mark the return of flat turf racing to Britain, I've recorded some thoughts on the two big field mile handicaps being run at Doncaster tomorrow. The Spring Mile and the Lincoln are both Class 2 straight mile handicaps and both have 22 runners as I write. The ground is currently soft, heavy in places, with the sky taps still turned on - so heavy might be what we get.
With all that in mind, I share my thoughts in the video below. In it, I share:
- Common features between the races
- Draw / run style biases
- Instant Expert overviews
- Some picks!
[*As ever, if I speak too slowly for you, use the little cog icon bottom right on the video to choose a faster playback speed]
Good luck!

For races such as this I will always look at the top rated (OR92) and change the class of race accordingly.
A 0-92 is a class 3 race. Interesting video nonetheless.
And once changed to Class 3 for the Spring Mile then look at the line for Isla Kai in comparison to the field.
Masterclass for anyone considering taking out Geegeez Gold membership. Thanks Matt. And please do get your coat.
Hi Matt,
Interesting and enjoyable offering as always.
Minor Feedback – nothing to do with the racing content!
Why the “background music”?
To me it detracts from focussing and hearing your pearls of wisdom.
Do keep on posting.

Good question. Some prefer it, other not so much!
Thanks Matt, really insightful. Always said that Gold membership is fantastic value, just wish I had more time to get the full benefit……when I retire perhaps!!
