One likely to have some cracking thoughts? (7)

I believe the answer is:

egghead

(Other definitions for egghead that I've seen before include "Brainiac" , "may take a bashing at the breakfast table" , "Brainy type" , "Ovoid-shaped intellectual" , "Intellectual (colloq.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
