TEMPLEPARK has a slightly more difficult task on his hands than last time but he can win another before the penalties become a bit too much for him. Bob Pebble should do better now tackling more of a trip, and looks the danger. Noble Behest has plenty of ability on the Flat and will be a threat if he can hurdle with some fluency on his debut today. Lucky Purchase might be the one for those looking for something more speculative at an each-way price.
