Night of Thunder colt who has shaped really well on both his starts, a strong-travelling second of 25 on his return in maiden at Newbury (1m) 21 days ago. The one to beat.

Promise shown when in the frame in 1m novice at Newcastle and 7f maiden there this year, racing close to pace than ideal on latter occasion. This €550,000 Night Of Thunder colt remains capable of better.

Sea The Stars colt who shaped very well when third of 9 in maiden at Kempton (1m, 11/1) on his debut 31 days ago. Sure to be all the better for that initial experience.

Forecasts

Lighting Thunder (1/4), Romanticizing (9/2), Qarreeb (11/1), Midsummer Storm (25/1), Flag Of Eva (66/1), Forever Endless (80/1)

Verdict

LIGHTING THUNDER looked a sure-fire winner when a promising runner-up in a big-field Newbury maiden on his return so gets the nod here over Romanticizing, who also shaped well when a debut Kempton third and shouldn't be underestimated for his top yard. Qarreeb and Midsummer Storm can fight it out for minor honours.
