      Verdict

      A couple of these bid for hat-tricks under a penalty including Celtic Artisan, who won over 1m2f here a week ago. But GABRIAL THE THUG landed one of these events over a mile at Wolverhampton only five days ago and leading amateur Simon Walker keeps the winning partnership intact. He gets the vote given the remainder inspire little confidence though Swiss Lait, due to run at Kempton yesterday, beat Hernando Torres to win under today’s amateur at Carlisle in August.
