Verdict

DUTCH DECOY went close in one of the season's leading 1m handicaps last week and Charlie Johnston's consistent gelding tops the shortlist after such a pleasing effort. Austrian Theory and Enough Already both shaped really well without getting everything fall their way last time and also make the shortlist, whilst Andrew Balding's unexposed 3-y-o Lady Flora also has to be considered.

  1. DUTCH DECOY
  2. AUSTRIAN THEORY (IRE)
  3. ENOUGH ALREADY
