Al Mubhir heads Haggas quest for fifth Lincoln success
Trainer could become most successful in history of the Doncaster highlight.
William Haggas goes in search of a record fifth Pertemps Network Lincoln on Saturday with Al Mubhir lining up at Doncaster for the Somerville Lodge handler. Haggas is locked with Jack Robinson on four victories apiece in the season-opening handicap, but appears to have an outstanding chance of becoming the outright leading trainer in the one-mile event with the likely favourite, who will be the mount of Andrea Atzeni. An easy winner in heavy ground at Haydock at the back-end of last season, the four-year-old has undergone wind surgery ahead of his reappearance, with Haggas expecting conditions to be in his favour. He said: “Al Mubhir did well last year. He is a nice horse who won on heavy ground at Haydock and the ground looks like it is coming right for him. He’s pretty fit and all being well, he should run a nice race.Frankel colt Al Mubhir bounces back to form to win the Visit https://t.co/A8az1MIpsd Handicap at @haydockraces in some style and completes a double for @TomMarquand 🏇
