      Verdict

      A maiden handicap which has attracted entries from some powerful yards. Evaluation receives weight all round but has not been progressing. Punta Arenas was only fourth when favourite here last month, behind Maketh Believeth, and Out Of Reason has become disappointing. MUSHIRIF (NAP) is bred for this trip and has been given plenty of time since a beaten favourite at Bath in May so he gets the nod with Natural Value fully exposed.
