BOLD DECISION is open to a little improvement and looks the one most capable of halting Come On Bear's winning run. The Zoffany gelding has been popular in the betting the last twice but didn't enjoy the rub of the green at the business end. This is a weak event and he could easily make it third time lucky. Come On Bear only has a 4lb higher mark to contend with and has to be respected in the company. However, Just An Idea doesn't have much to find at this level and can also give the selection a scare along the way.
