      Verdict

      Isabella Ruby returned a surprise 80/1 winner in a handicap at Wolverhampton earlier in the week but she’s penalised today and finished behind several of these in classified company over track and trip earlier including the runner-up WICKLOW WARRIOR. The latter was only beaten a short-head and can confirm running with both Star Cracker and Kroy. Dodgy Bob finished in front of Archimedes at Southwell last time though neither threatened.
