        Verdict

        This looks well up to its Group three status. There should be little between the well drawn Bahamian Pirate, Indian Spark and Continent on their running in the Palace House Stakes. The latter, who had no sort of a run in that race, can come out best of that trio. Reel Buddy is in the form of his life and is sure to run his race. He is closely matched with Continent on the Abernant form, but they both look up against it with Invincible Spirit, who left the impression, he could do better. Tedburrow, bounced back to form last time and along with Orientor, should run well without being quite good enough to win. Misraah looks sure to take all the beating. Third in the Group one July Cup, behind Mozart, reads well enough at this level and is taken to land his first Group success.
