Verdict
Easyrun De Vassy was beaten more than nine lengths by Aye Aye Charlie over track and trip last month but should get a lot closer on 8lb better terms. DECORATION OF WAR (NAP) is more progressive than both, however, and Max Young’s six-year-old can defy a penalty and complete his hat-trick now that the penny has dropped. It’s difficult to make a case for any of the remaining trio.
