Verdict

All of these step up in trip but AL NAFIR finished in front of Laatansa when runner-up over a mile here on his debut and makes more appeal than stable companion New London and a third Godolphin runner in Delphinus. The latter and March Moon represent last year’s winning yard while Luis Fernando showed some promise at Lingfield on his introduction and Soul Stopper posted a better effort when third at Goodwood. Wholeofthemoon finished fourth at the latter track and is another to keep an eye on.
