Verdict

ARLECCHINO’S ARC has done all of his winning over course and distance and is back on the mark off which he was last successful in December so it will be a surprise if Mark Usher’s charge is not in the thick of the action. Kybosh was in good form at Kempton in February but Burguillos has yet to win on the all-weather, though was second at Wolverhampton two runs ago. Compass Point won three times here last spring off higher marks but it’s a while since scaled those heights.
