      Verdict

      Red October is a previous course winner and easily best on official ratings but appears to have developed a mind of his own. DECORA did manage to win at Salisbury last month and was third over hurdles a couple of weeks ago. She is at least in form which is more than you can say about most of the others including the three-year-olds Temple Lock, who is 0-11, and Aboard The Beagle.
