      Verdict

      ITALIAN RIVIERA took his time to catch Goldan Jess over the C&D last time and is now 6lb higher but he still looked green that day and, with more to come, is expected to complete a four-timer. Thecornishcockney is saddled with a penalty for Friday's victory over 1m6f here and that was his first success on his 24th start. Ctappers has won over hurdles and on Turf and shouldn't be long scoring on the all-weather from this lowly mark though the biggest threat is likely to come from Tartan Jura, a winner at Goodwood and probably still capable of better despite his defeat here last time.
