I Was Thinking heads this nine-runner Bath Class 6 sprint on a rating narrowly ahead of Spirited Dancer, and the step up to six furlongs on firm ground looks well suited to her profile. The main threats come from Spirited Dancer, who is just a pound behind and cannot be dismissed lightly, while Some Nightmare and Rogue Rebellion are both capable of running into a place at these weights. On balance, I Was Thinking holds a slender but clear enough edge over the field to merit support. **Selection: I Was Thinking**
