      Verdict

      Moonlit Cloud won easily at Yarmouth to complete a double but has been raised 8lb and is taken on with SEMSER (NAP). The latter won at Chelmsford before posting a good effort on fast ground at Goodwood. Outrace went close over a shorter trip at Bath last time and Eklil was narrowly beaten over track and trip before disappointing at Beverley but Bright Start and Kodiman were both well beaten on their latest starts.
