    Verdict

    The fast-improving KINONDO KWETU has beaten Judge Earle the last twice and, though Sam England’s six-year-old carries a penalty in this, those placings should be confirmed again. Trixster was in good form in the spring but is having a first run since April while Twig was comfortably beaten in a three-runner race at Worcester when stepping out of hunter chase company.
