Artdeal, Lord Deevert and Woodford Regen are the three for the shortlist in this seller and the vote is given to Artdeal. The selection has a bit to prove at present but there is no doubt on the pick of his form he sets the standard today. He has only had the four runs so there could be a bit more in the tank and he gets the narrow nomination. Lord Deevert won well at Lingfield last time and if he can reproduce that form back on the turf then he would give the selection plenty to think about. Woodford Regen was well beaten at Southwell last time, but he hails from a shrewd yard and is worth a look in the market on this his turf debut. His stablemate Indecision showed improved form last time at Ripon so may prove best of the remainder, but Artdeal can win this if he can reproduce his best form.
