      In depth

      Verdict

      MOVING LIGHT looked a potentially-smart colt when making a winning debut over 1m2f at Leicester. He easily beat the odds-on favourite and subsequent winner Thibaan, rated 85, on that occasion and this extra distance should suit. Fiesta De Vega also made a winning debut over 1m2f when scoring at Haydock and looks the main danger to the selection, despite also carrying a penalty. The remainder will do well to trouble the principals with Byron Hill perhaps best of them on an earlier fourth at Wolverhampton.
