      Verdict

      Destiny Of A Diva keeps improving and nearly defied the handicapper again when just beaten over C&D last time. She's 4lb higher for her troubles here, while San Cassiano has a penalty for his recent win at Ripon but won off the same mark last year and is not out of this. Art Scholar wasn't beaten far off today's mark last time and had SCAMPERDALE back in third when scoring at Doncaster last month. The latter re-opposes on more favourable terms here however and, with his claimer's allowance also thrown into the equation, Brian Baugh's charge looks capable of getting his head back in front today.
