      Verdict

      Baileys Warrior went close on her debut but disappointed at Newcastle last time while Bellissime failed to land the odds at the same track back in September. QURTAJANA was only fourth at Kempton on her debut in December but both placed horses have won subsequently and John Gosden’s filly may be the one to side with on her return. The latter’s stablemate Queen Of Zabeel is preferred to Special Directory and Closeness of the newcomers.
