        Verdict

        AUTHENTIC ART just missed out at Wolverhampton when sent off favourite for his handicap debut. But Ralph Beckett’s charge should be sharper for that first start since September and this won’t take much winning. The Night King posted a better effort at Lingfield last week and can figure and Be Mindful has a shout if staying the extra distance. Watching Spirits is another upped in trip but Global Wonder showed no improvement for the step up to 1m2f last time.
