      Verdict

      Coorg won over today's trip at Southwell and was placed over 2m at Lingfield last time. He is preferred to the penalised Coup De Vent, a 16/1 winner over 1m2f last week. My Tringaling's recent placed effort came in a lowly Class 7 contest and Heska looks no nearer to ending a long losing run, though slips further down the weights. MEGARA has yet to threaten but gets closer with every outing. Stepping up in distance from 1m2f, he looks just the type his trainer does so well with at this level and a bold bid is expected from Sir Mark Prescott's charge today.
