      Verdict

      Marcus Antonius is upped a couple of grades off an 8lb higher mark after winning over 2m2f here and Sleepy Haven also faces a tougher task raised 5lb for winning at Leicester. Teo Vivo is back on a winning mark and posted a better effort at Musselburgh last time but a speculative vote goes the way of ARISTO DU PLESSIS. The latter last won just over a year ago when successful in this grade at Musselburgh with Meadowcroft Boy well beaten and can race off a 6lb lower mark today. Ifandbutwhynot and Nuts Well remain high enough in the weights judged on recent form.
