    Verdict

    DECORUM just about sets the standard in this maiden and although Charger wouldn't have to find a great deal to overturn the ratings deficit we will take John Gosden's runner to finally get off the mark while Moonbeam Dancer rates best of the rest. A new combination of headgear is tried to get the selection to find a winning attitude, which was notably lacking from when finding just one too good at Wolverhampton two starts ago. In seven starts he has beaten plenty of future winners and should also benefit from the under-hoof conditions. Charger has just two pounds to find according to the official ratings and although he should go even better for this step up in trip his best so far has been on quick ground. Moonbeam Dancer and Nesayem have a similar profile and both leave the impression a win is just around the corner but both will have to find improvement this time while Lilly Royal has some formlines to suggest a bold bid. For a maiden we have plenty of form to go at and it all points to Decorum having the best claims.
