        Verdict

        John Gosden may well have already have notched a winner on the card and ILLUMINED is another with leading claims. She showed her appreciation for the step up to 1m4f when making all here with the re-opposing Rewrite The Stars beaten six lengths and a subsequent winner further behind in third. She can shrug off a penalty and go in again. Alemagna, Expressionism and Vibrance are among those expected to improve for this extra distance while the newcomer Baaqiah is worth a second glance.
