      Verdict

      This race has cut up badly at the overnight stage and Move It can take full advantage at the main expense of Gallivant and Royal Beacon. Roger Charlton's colt has done nothing but improve throughout the season having won five of his seven starts during the current campaign. The son of Cadeaux Genereux started by winning a Bath handicap off a mark of just 68 and has progressed through the ranks to land the Shergar Cup Sprint at Ascot last weekend. The colt showed a smart turn of foot to collar the leaders in the closing stages and remains one to side with despite racing off a mark of 105. Royal Beacon was narrowly denied in the Ascot contest and is now 5lb better off but Mark Johnston's charge could once again prove vulnerable to the burst of acceleration that the selection showed at the Berkshire track. Gallivant was a useful juvenile and will be sharper for his belated return here last month but gave the impression that further may suit while Dazzling Bay now looks in the handicapper's grip so Move It looks the one to beat once again.
