None of these inspire confidence but MILITRY DECORATION has slipped down the weights since joining Jon Scargill and gets a token vote after finishing runner-up over 1m2f at Nottingham last time. Perfect Refuge was placed in this grade at Windsor on her penultimate start and Manfadh had been thereabouts before struggling at Chester. Paco's Prince, Kingdom Of Dubai and Topology have bits of form but Zarrar was tailed off on his debut for new connections having landed a double here last year and gets a change of headgear.
