      Verdict

      Coorg won for the third time in his last four outings when scoring over track and trip last time. But he is upped in class off a 9lb higher mark for this and Megara also has a tougher task having notched-up a narrow win at Lingfield recently. But TEMPURAN (NAP) made all to return a four-length winner in this grade at Lingfield on his latest start and he gets the nod to go in again. Irish raider Tawseef steps up in trip but has won over hurdles before.
