        Verdict

        We start with a very tricky nursery and Thoughtsofstardom looks the one to be on, with Nivelle and Carmenero put forward as the likely dangers. The selection improved on his debut effort to land quite a competitive seller at Leicester. It is obviously not the strongest of form but subsequently he does get in here on a very low mark and with more improvement expected he looks to hold strong claims. Nivelle was an impressive winner at Windsor back in June but slightly disappointed next time at Salisbury, if that was just a blip she should figure in the finish. Carmenero could be the best of the others if he reproduces the form of his fourth behind the very smart Sir Percy. So all in all a very open affair to get things under way and it is not with too much confidence we select Thoughtsofstardom.
