Verdict
THE IMPOSTER (NAP) completed a double in novice handicaps at Lingfield then made it a hat-trick when defying a penalty at Wetherby. He's up another 5lb but will enjoy the conditions more than most and this is a very moderate handicap. The teenager Galactic Power has won around here and ran well at Taunton last month though pulled up on heavy ground behind another veteran Bellamy's Grey over the track and trip a year ago. If Karl's Berg Did is 0-14 and was beaten a long way into third at Leicester and though Barrier Peaks showed some improvement at Ffos Las that was over two miles.
