Verdict
Common Thought is a lightly raced type who is open to any amount of improvement. He overcame a poor draw and trouble in running to score at Ripon last month and should develop into a useful performer. A slight negative is that this is the first time he will not have encountered a bend in one of his races and his resolution will be put to its sternest test in the closing stages. Judge Davidson, Far Lane and Celtic Ballet are others to consider along with Perfect Storm in a race were it will pay to stay up with the pace throughout.
