Verdict
MOVING LIGHT defied a penalty over today’s trip at Kempton last month. The Godolphin colt goes handicapping for the first time and can remain unbeaten. Most of today’s opposition have something to prove off their current marks including Kempton winner Iffraaz, who finished last of 17 at Newmarket last week, while Tafish was well beaten at Sandown having earlier won over a shorter trip here. Carlos Felix won at Ascot back in July while both Beholden and Here And Now drop down in distance.
