A golden opportunity for TOO MANY DIAMONDS to make it a seven day hat-trick and remain unbeaten since switched to Dan Skelton. He downed his rivals with ridiculous ease at Sedgefield on Tuesday and is well ahead of the handicapper despite carrying a double penalty. Perhaps the only real concern is a significant easing of the ground, but even then he should still be far too good for these rivals on these terms.
