    Verdict

    Sir Gregory drops down in trip after winning over 6f here but Hey Ho Let's Go completed a double over today’s distance at Lingfield with his latest victory. WINGS OF DOVE has plummeted down the weights and finally took advantage when also scoring at Lingfield a week ago. She’s taken to defy a penalty given the ease of that success. Bernard Spierpoint and Scale Force have been thereabouts on Tapeta recently though neither have won on Polytrack so far.
