        Verdict

        DECORATION (NAP) won a maiden over course and distance last month and the runner-up has subsequently boosted the form. Roger Varian’s filly looks worth sticking with now handicapping. Blue Missile reappeared in Listed company and better is expected on her handicap debut while Zarga returned a losing favourite when beaten at Redcar though failed to get a clear run. Both Chealamy and Ludmilla are upped in distance for this while Double March won at Ascot earlier and is preferred to Flight Of Angels.
