Captain Joy faces ten rivals in the Sunbets All-Weather Mile Championships Conditions Stakes at Lingfield on Good Friday.

Tracey Collins' grey stayed on well to land the 2016 renewal of this contest . The nine-year-old has not reached the same heights subsequently but returned to winning ways at Dundalk last time.

The hat-trick seeking Second Thought is the ante-post favourite for the contest ahead of the in-form Arcanada.

There is also strong Irish interest in the opening Sunbets All-Weather Championships Apprentice Handicap courtesy of Adrian McGuinness' Master Speaker.

The eight-year-old gelding has been rejuvenated this term winning twice at Dundalk, and will again be ridden by Robbie Downey.
