      Verdict

      Pleasure Dome has had plenty of chances and came up short once again when favourite at Chester. Rated 77, he should be winning at this level before long but John Gosden has sent a rare runner to the track in GALA (NAP). The Galileo filly made a decent debut effort at Doncaster when stablemate and subsequent winner To Eternity was runner-up and can open her account over this longer trip. Notion Of Beauty has plenty to find with the selection and the remaining pair are even harder to fancy.
