        Verdict

        The first division of this maiden should fall to Avoriaz, Vampyros and Wooly Bully look to be the main rivals. Luca Cumani's colt came to this country with an official rating of 98. we doubt he is that good at present but he did finish third in a hot maiden at Leicester on his British debut and can only improve on that effort. Vampyrus hasn't really stepped up on a promising debut, however the stable is in much better form at present and he will be hard to keep out of the places. Wooly Bully has a bit to find on official ratings but did go close in two handicaps in the spring. Croos Of Lorraine may do best of the others, but this will not take too much winning and Avoriaz should be up to the task.
