      Verdict

      It Is Now sets only a moderate standard and the less-exposed Pink Parfait may improve past him. The latter is also preferred to the returning Secret Tryst but this won’t take much winning and James Tate may have found a good opportunity for COOL LIGHTNING. The latter’s dam made a winning debut as a two-year-old and her first foal can follow suit.
