      Verdict

      The Progressive Decider gets the vote here with Dodaa and Blackheath rating the main dangers. The selection has won his last two races in good style notably when beating Alexander Hurricane last time out, granted he is rising in the weights but he again has conditions to suit and he looks the one to be on. Dodaa rates the main danger as he defeated Thoughtsofstardom last time out but this looks tougher and he looks vulnerable under his penalty. Blackheath is another that has been in good form of late but all his best efforts have come in claimers and this looks more competitive. Of the remainder Town House is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is hard to win with while Bentley is from a yard in form and could go well at a price but for the winner we are happy to return to Decider who is in the form of his life at present.
