      Verdict

      The Coventry Stakes beckons for PSYCHEDELIC FUNK, who has looked a high-class juvenile in both starts to date and easily beat Ambiguity at Naas with Moritzburg trailing in third. The runner-up's yard is represented here by Lundy and Peace Envoy and the former looked a very nice prospect when landing a Leopardstown maiden. Hakeem travels over from the UK and showed the benefit of his debut at Newmarket with a facile success on fast ground at Nottingham and wouldn't be here without good reason.
