Sir Michael Stoute's bandwagon can roll on with GIVE YOUR VERDICT appealing as the safest option in division 2 of this modest maiden; Hooligan Sean is one to seriously monitor in the betting, while Ajool may have more to offer now that he has the benefit of a seasonal run behind him. Ajool appeared to be in need of the outing when he finished down the field at Doncaster in April. Barry Hills has his string in good form just now and this fellow would be dangerous to underestimate as he bids to add to that steady stream of winners sent out by the Lambourn-based trainer. Hooligan Sean posted an improved effort when he was last seen out and, given the way Henry Candy has turned the corner with his horses this season; another bold effort is anticipated from 'Team Candy' today. However, there was an awful lot to like about the debut run of Give Your Verdict in a tougher race at Goodwood last month - even though the form has taken a few knocks in the last couple of weeks. Stoute's colt adds to an interesting book of rides for Ryan Moore and the reigning champion jockey again appears to be the man to side with here.
