Tough decisions for these rungs! Lochner for sure, and then I'll go Gros, Domenichino, and van Leyden.

For me, OMG van Leyden, what's he doing in a place like this, then... let's say Fra B and Domenichino.

I love Gros, Domenichino, Bartolomeo, and Vouet.

Looks like I never said, but Domenichino had his third consecutive victory and is off to bye-week again, this time with Lucas van Leyden. Gross was third, and then Vouet and Fra B tie for fourth and get to stick around as well.
