        Verdict

        Naughty By Nature, Brave Fight and Manouche look the three to concentrate on in this maiden and the vote is given to Naughty By Nature. The selection was a fair fifth on his debut behind In The Fashion, he is sure to have learnt from the experience and given nominal improvement he looks the one to be on. Brave Flight rates the main danger on his latest third behind Saintly but he gave the impression he would be suited by a longer trip on that occasion and for that reason he is opposed. Manouche is another worthy of respect on his third behind Faith And Reason but he is another that may be suited by further. Of the remainder Lester Leaps In is from a yard that can do no wrong with its two-year-olds and should be noted in the market but for the winner we return to Naughty By Nature.
