Verdict

ARCHIMEDES took advantage of a tumble down the weights to score over course and distance a week ago. He won with plenty to spare so may well defy a penalty as he drops down a grade for this. Treaty Of Rome has been thereabouts over longer trips in this grade recently while Roy's Legacy has been running well elsewhere on the all-weather but returns to this track for the first time since 2011. Pearl Noir is not at his best on this surface having won off a 10lb higher mark on Turf last year but Charlie Lad is creeping steadily closer.
