Vanderlin ready for Lingfield test

Andrew Balding’s globetrotting seven-year-old Vanderlin is in fine form ahead of a tilt at the Listed Doncaster Mile at Lingfield on Thursday.

The gelding was last seen finishing fourth in a Grade Two race at Woodbine in Canada last October after filling the runners-up berth in a Grade One at Keeneland, and will face six rivals in the mile contest.
