Race Tip

DECORATION (2) was in the money in a at Albany then met stiffer opposition last time when 12th over 1m3f in the LR Melvista Stakes at Ascot, beaten 7 lengths. Ideally placed to return to form. PURE CHINO (6) is a last start winner over 1m at this track, making it two wins from three appearances this campaign. Looks ready for the longer journey. Hard to knock winning form and looks a key chance again. ALTERNO (3) has not won for a long while. Last raced on April 1 when beaten 3.5 lengths into sixth at York over 7½f. Steps up a level but he is capable of running a bold race. STAY ASTERN (5) did well to score two runs ago then turned in a decent effort last time out when third over 1m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. Well placed and can make amends.
