In depth
Verdict
Parisian Pyramid would have made short work of these in his heyday and the grey has gone close several times on the Polytrack this year, though is on a long losing run. Fellow veterans Masai Moon and Dark Lane arrive in decent form and Gracie's Games stormed back to her best at Ffos Las last week, though has a penalty to contend with now. DREAM CATCHER had What A Dandy behind when fourth at Lingfield last month. Rain is forecast and that will suit Henry Candy's charge who looks well treated with Charlotte Jenner taking off a further 5lb. The consistent Ray Of Joy could be the pick of the remainder.
