    Verdict

    Dominium is not badly treated if at his best on his first start since January but is drawn out wide along with Above The Stars. Fossa keeps on improving and should go well after scoring at Wolverhampton last time while Meridius makes a quick reappearance having finished third at Nottingham on last week's handicap debut. Winter Song is another open to further progress after just the one outing this year but PERFECT VENTURE looks worth sticking with as she won with a bit in hand over course and distance a week ago and there looks more to come.
