        Verdict

        TIJUCA has yet to race over further than a mile but her customary late finish suggests she'll stay this longer trip. Ed de Giles' mare gets the vote ahead of Overrider, a winner at Wolverhampton in March and only 2lb higher today. Daniel Thomas is capable at this lowly level on his day and went close last time while Copperwood can also pop up in this grade when the mood takes him. Giantstepsahead may prove best of the rest on his reappearance.
