Verdict

TENZING NORGAY seemingly has a tough task in his bid for a hat-trick after winning at Lingfield on Tuesday. But it wouldn’t be the first time a Sir Mark Prescott representative has defied a double penalty and he gets the nod. The Newmarket trainer complicates matters by also running the unexposed St Michel while West Coast Flyer opened his account at Wolverhampton back in February and makes his handicap debut along with Hammer Gun. The latter steps up in trip and looks a bigger threat than Templier, well beaten over today’s distance on the all-weather last time.
