    Verdict

    A difficult affair in which the market will offer most clues and we side with Seabow in preference to Sound Of Nature and Wizards Dream. Seabow ran an eye-catcher on debut last term and while it is a worry that the Godolphin team have not brought him back to the racecourse quite so quickly, but they have been more than capable of bringing horses back first time out and the hint is taken. Sounds Of Nature is beautifully bred and is sure to be fit enough to do himself justice. He would not want too much in the way of rain. Wizards Dream ran an eyecatcher in defeat at Windsor and is interestingly dropped in distance. David Elsworth's team are in form so a note is made of any market movers. Shotfire Ridge was a 50 000 guinea purchase and is the perfect material for rookie trainer, Ed Vaughan. Tipsy Me could not cope with bottomless ground at Haydock and looks persevering with. Seabow gets the confident vote in our penultimate event.
