In a competitive nursery, Generous Thought is selected ahead of Peter's Storm and Fabuleux Cherie. Blue Zenith and Fabuleux Cherie - who is holding her form really well - come here as recent winners and, as such, are in form and have to be respected, while Firenza Bond has also won recently and missed what seemed an easier engagement during the week in order to run here, it seems. Prigsnov Dancer, though, is weighted to get his revenge on him based on Catterick five-furlong form. Generous Thought held a Dewhurst entry and, despite displaying greenness, won well at Pontefract last time. He looks interesting, while Indian Diva scooted up at Lingfield last time and can't be ruled out as long as the ground stays dry. Rash Judgement was not beaten too far in a valuable sales race at Newmarket last time and is respected, while Peter's Storm, who looked set to be suited by six furlongs following his debut, showed the necessary speed to win over five furlongs last time. Unexposed, he rates as a key player but, for the selection, we return to Generous Thought.
