        Verdict

        The Gosden team had a leading chance in the previous division and REACH FOR THE MOON is the one to beat in this. A runner-up in the Listed Chesham Stakes at Ascot, he can open his account. Harrow showed major improvement when second over a lightly shorter trip here and makes more appeal than Hamaki and Incumbent while Nawras cost 625,000gns as a full-brother to a winning two-year-old and and Dawn Of Liberation is a half-brother to former stablemate and Group 1 winner Toormore.
