Verdict

Quite a competitive heat to close the card and it is hard to rule any of them out barring Executive Decision; who came the closest he has been to a victory since 1999 when finishing a distance behind Stormhill Stag here in January. Formal Bid is not without a chance on the pick of his form and is one to bear in mind if he is supported. But Taming ran a blinder for his new stable last time and may be able to break his duck over hurdles with a similar performance.
