Verdict
ALJARYAAL (NAP) bids for a hat-trick only 2lb higher than when landing a double over today’s trip at Lingfield. He gets the vote ahead of Central City, who ran poorly dropped down in trip last time having scored over track and trip before that. Beggarman won over a shorter distance here in May but Moonlit Warrior ran a shocker when sent off odds-on favourite at Catterick last time. Son Of Red has placed over hurdles since last seen on the Flat.
