      Verdict

      Celtic Artisan recorded his first win on the Flat in 16 attempts when scoring over track and trip a fortnight ago. Barnaby Brook was runner-up on that occasion with previous winner Clock On Tom well beaten but KRISTAL HART makes most appeal in this. The latter won here in November and found only Jethou Island too good over course and distance last time. Anjuna Beach finished ahead of Goodwood Moonlight here when placed for the sixth time in succession but will likely find at least one too good again.
