        Verdict

        Godolphin launch a dual assault on the Group 3 prize and PRIZE MONEY (NAP) looks the one to be on. He should stay the longer trip and has strong form claims on the back of his second at Royal Ascot to stable companion Hawkbill in the Tercentenary Stakes, the latter having progressed to land the Eclipse last weekend. Shabeeb rates a threat as he routed his rivals last time at Doncaster and seems sure to progress over this longer trip - the form of that race on Town Moor is already working out well. Housesofparliament didn't get the clearest of runs when fourth in the King Edward VII Stakes and commands respect, along with Harrison and Platitude, who are both going the right way. Harbour Law may find 1m5f too sharp after a splendid effort in the Queen's Vase.
