      Verdict

      Tommy Taylor landed a hat-trick of 6f victories here on his latest start but has only won once in 27 previous attempts at today’s longer trip. He looks worth taking on with DUTCH DECOY, who won over track and trip early last month and finished in front of Spartan Fighter when second here subsequently. The latter was also beaten by Vindobala at the track in December but Tjade Collier’s charge has returned a beaten favourite in all three starts since while Parallel World still looks high enough in the weights.
