      Verdict

      USTATH carries a double penalty having completed a hat-trick of course wins with last week’s success. But he beat subsequent winner Qaaraat on that occasion and Roger Fell’s charge may not have stopped winning yet. Kaafy won over track and trip at the same fixture here last week but that was his first win after 22 attempts and third-placed Red Bravo may well reverse running. Rhubarb never threatened the winner when second over 7f here earlier and Middlescence has a bit to find with the selection.
