HIGH Troja (25/1) proved the day’s inspired selection to lift The Viking into second spot in the Dalepak Summer Naps Challenge.
The family of the late George Ward, a naps table flat champion in 2006 when he napped back to back 33/1 winners (the only man ever to achieve this feat in our competition) look like they will be in the reckoning for this year’s pot and £1,000 prize.
The horse was trained by Ed Dunlop, ridden by Paul Hanagan and narrowly pipped odds-on shot Hillstar. Meanwhile, Sammy Parker Trophy holders Yeoman Boys are the only club to have three winners from three.
Next Saturday, selections can be made at Chester, Goodwood, Haydock and York.
