Verdict
Arlecchino's Leap scored over track and trip before failing to figure over 6f at Chelmsford and is not out of this. But Justice First has failed to threaten in three subsequent starts since winning at Kempton in February. UPSTAGING has been placed on numerous occasions since winning his maiden but is taken to bring that frustrating run to an end in this after missing out by only a head at Kempton on his first start since July. Spryt went close over track and trip off today’s mark in August and looks best of the rest.
