      Verdict

      Arte Del Calcio has only been raised 2lb for winning at Lingfield but the big step up in trip is a real concern. Hidden Justice, second twice at Goodwood in June, was well beaten the last time he raced off this higher mark while Rei D'Oro has failed to build on his victory at Wolverhampton in February. THE QUARTERJACK was biting off more than he could chew at Ascot last month and did himself no favours by hanging badly off the home turn. He's better than that and, with Daniel Muscutt claiming 5lb, can make amends here and get the better of fellow C&D winner April Ciel.
