        Verdict

        Time To Perfection finished just ahead of Perfect Blue when placed over track and trip last time but I'm A Star was still beaten a long way when runner-up at Epsom in August. Corelli will likely improve for a recent debut over a mile at Nottingham and is preferred to stablemate and newcomer River Of Gold but CRAVING gets the nod. The latter was beaten only a nose here last month and this longer trip should suit on that evidence.
