    Verdict

    Comedian Leader’s winning run came to an end at Newcastle and he’s upped in class today while Mister X missed out on a hat-trick when upped a grade at Kempton. Dark Trooper bids for a treble raised 6lb and can figure again but BERKSHIRE PHANTOM was having his first outing since being gelded when landing a maiden at Southwell and further progress looks on the cards now handicapping.
