      Verdict

      Karriewhitchit and Assail finished down the field in the same race at Chelmsford but the former ran green and better is expected in this. Groove Nation and She‘s Good For Me were both beaten a long way on their respective debuts but this looks a good opportunity for the Godolphin newcomer NATURE WATCH. Already gelded, the US-bred cost a princely sum as a two-year-old and may prove good enough.
