        Verdict

        Glory of Paris has been in good form at Newcastle though this looks tougher than his latest task. Divine Messenger won easily over track and trip last month but a 10lb rise proved beyond him last time while Me Too Nagasaki missed most of last year but could go well on only his second start for new connections. Alexandra Dunn runs a couple of recent acquisitions in Regulator and VENTURA BLUES (NAP). The latter wasn’t beaten far when fourth in Class 2 company at Wolverhampton on her debut for the yard and gets the vote in this lower grade.
