Decision Time ended the winning run of Bianca Minola at Navan last month with Harebell back in fourth. However, the runner-up was only beaten a neck and is 2lb better off today so has every chance of turning the tables. TWO FOR TEA hasn’t really hit form so far this season but has had her excuses and the yard is in better form now. The Mount Nelson filly is now 5lb lower than when second at Navan in the autumn and, eased in grade today, gets a tentative vote. Faradays Law has probably been running a little better than form figures would suggest this year and makes more appeal than Creeping Ivy and the others.
