        Verdict

        SHIFTING MOON scored over 2m here a fortnight ago but was successful over track and trip before that and the hat-trick beckons for Hughie Morrison's charge despite a 6lb rise. Idle Talker was well beaten in a higher grade on soft ground last time but landed a double over 1m4f earlier while Consortium is usually thereabouts over the same trip but is proving hard to win with. Dissertation has a shout now handicapping and Tafolau is one to note stepping up in distance for Sir Mark Prescott's yard.
