DECORATION OF WAR is proven on the surface and has done well over hurdles for his current yard since leaving Mick Appleby in early 2020, so it's worth taking a chance on him to make a winning return to the Flat from a reduced mark. Recent-winner Mustang Kodi is likely to go close if he gets the trip, and fellow 3yo Intoxication shouldn't be ruled out.
