Verdict

A tricky puzzle to solve but the most persuasive option is ATLANTIS BLUE, who did well to get as close as she did in pursuit of a hat-trick when fourth at Sandown earlier this month and George Baker's mare remains of interest despite a 2 lb rise. The main threat may emerge from Crimson Spirit, who shaped encouragingly having been caught wide at York last month, with Unreal Connection and Lunatick fancied to go well, too.
