      Verdict

      Blyth Knight was a good second on his last run last season when half a length behind Dhabyan. He is sure to have strengthened up through the winter and he will be hard to beat. Trust Rule rates the main danger he was a fair second behind Island Rapture on the AW at Lingfield last time and he could go well if he acts on the turf. Love In Seattle is a Seattle Slew colt who is held in some regard and the market may prove the best guide as to what is expected on this his racecourse debut. Squirtle Turtle is another newcomer that catches the eye on breeding being a colt by Pentire Celebre especially as Kieren Fallon is booked for the ride. The remainder that have run need to improve on all known form to take a hand in the finish.
