Verdict
Atlantis Crossing drops down in class and may figure but Parisian Pyramid is harder to fancy carrying a penalty after winning at Windsor, his first victory since 2010. DOMINIUM makes more appeal as he was beaten only a short-head over track and trip a week ago. Meridius has finished nearer last than first either side of scoring at Salisbury while All Or Nothin has yet to show any progress for a tumble down the weights. De Lesseps and Chester Deelyte are even harder to fancy.
