Verdict
PSALM cost 300,000gns and the Sea The Stars colt will be better for his debut on fast ground at Newmarket where he was very green. Ryan Moore takes the ride rather than Meriwether Lewis, who showed good pace here in June, or the newcomer Agenda, by Galileo out of a Group 3 winner. Kortez Bay has improved with every run and wasn't beaten far in a lucrative auction race at Naas while Monasterboice was going on at the finish over this trip on the latter track last month.
