Forecasts

Reach For The Moon (6/5), Triple Time (13/8), Tacarib Bay (2/1), Marie's Diamond (7/2), Dark Shift (5/1), Perotto (11/2), Bayside Boy (6/1), Brunch (10/1)

Verdict

A winner at this level as a 2-y-o, REACH FOR THE MOON failed to meet expectations in the Hampton Court at Royal Ascot but the step up in trip appeared to stretch him that day and he's worth another chance to build on his encouraging comeback at Sandown. Bayside Boy edged out the selection in a Group 2 last term and may emerge as the biggest threat again returned to a more suitable track, while Dark Shift is well worth a shot at this level given his smart form in top-end handicaps.
