Verdict

ART DECCO improved markedly on just his second chase start when runner-up over 21f here and, with further progress likely now moving back up in trip, he is taken to strike under Daryl Jacob. The Questioner has done little wrong since switched to handicaps/fitted with cheekpieces over hurdles and will be a big threat if taking to fences at the first attempt. Cases can also be readily made for Bring The Action and Bobmahley.
