Verdict

The third last race on the card is another competitive low grade handicap where hopefully DECENCY can get his head in front again from Motty's Gift and Singingintherain. The selection did not cut much ice as a two-year-old but the fact that he went off second favourite for his first start as a three-tear-old shows there is more to come. He also managed to win that start but it was a poor event. However that was his first race in 149 days so improvement is sure to come. So if handling the switch to grass he will be hard to beat under Fallon. Motty's Gift has a similar profile to that of the selections and with the Swinburn's team is such good nick he is sure to be fancied. Singingintherain is quite interesting from top weight as he has been dropped a few lbs by the handicapper. His earlier form on the all weather was decent but his last two starts have been disappointing. The switch to grass may help though and he should be monitored in the betting. Stay On Track, Belle Park and Tregony Bridge are others to keep an eye on in this competitive heat.
