        Verdict

        In the opener, Rule Of Life is selected ahead of Nice To Know and Vincenzio. Golden Brown is a 10,000 guineas son of Kyllachy who is related to several winners, and Nice To Know showed plenty of promise when fifth at Yarmouth on her backend Yarmouth debut. Formerly with Dermot Weld, Pretty Demanding showed promise on her Folkestone run last time and she could go well dropping in trip, while Rule Of Life's maiden form, at six and seven furlongs on the all-weather and Turf, brings him right into calculations. A 100,000 euros son of Pivotal, the debutant Six Of Hearts holds claims, while added spice comes into play by virtue of other newcomers in the shape of Vincenzio a 210,000 guineas son of Galileo, and Womaniser, a 160,000 guineas son of Rock Of Gibraltar. It all adds up to an interesting maiden, in which the selection is Rule Of Life.
