Cleary finds good rhythm on Psalm
Psalm beats Pearl Jewel

Placed four times from seven previous outings, Aidan O'Brien's Psalm (10/3) got the job done in the concluding maiden over ten-and-half-furlongs.
Jack Cleary has been seen to good effect on several Ballydoyle-trained winners this term and the 7lb claimer had the Sea The Stars colt, owned by the Coolmore partners, in the front rank throughout to gain a half-length verdict over outsider Pearl Jewel
Cleary said: “He's been hitting the crossbar a few times so it's good to get his head in front.
“He stayed galloping to the line, which I liked. He was good.
“Just before the home straight I let him build away nicely and it paid off for him.”
