        Verdict

        Arabian Moon has placed in all five starts to date but it will be disappointing if he breaks his maiden in this against some choicely-bred runners from powerful stables. To Nathaniel is by Nathaniel out of a Sea The Stars mare and certain improve on his debut at Kempton. Godolphin’s newcomer Bright Melody has already been gelded but Adam Kirby prefers him to another Dubawi offspring Royal Castle. PAPA POWER could upstage his rivals, however, as he’s a half-brother to winning miler Rufus King and his dam won on Polytrack.
