        Verdict

        Several arrive on the back of victories though Total Commitment’s success at Kempton came over 6f. Ejtilaab and Alminoor both won over today’s trip at Chelmsford with the latter looking the more progressive bidding for a hat-trick but FOX DUTY FREE may just edge this. The latter was switched to Ralph Beckett’s yard after a couple of temperamental displays and the change of scenery seems to have done the trick. He scored with plenty to spare over course and distance last month and can defy a hike in the weights on that evidence
