In depth

Verdict

For three-year-olds rated 0-50, this won’t take much winning. ARLECCHINO’S STAR may be just about the pick on the best of his form last year but that’s not saying much. Tollerton Forest took a big step forward when third at Southwell eight days ago but was engaged in the 2.45 at Wolverhampton yesterday while Drum Brae Boy gets cheekpieces having failed to justify favouritism at Lingfield on Monday.
