Formscan - A case can be made for plenty of these, including Dutch Decoy, who is entitled to come on from his seasonal debut in the Spring Mile at Doncaster. He is now just 1lb above his last winning mark, which came over this trip on the July Course last summer, but ASHKY gets the vote. A highly consistent filly last season, she struck three times over a mile at Newmarket - once here and twice on the July Course - and there is more to come from her. Bucephalus and Unforgotten are not to be underestimated.
