      Verdict

      ANTARTICA DE THAIX should be winning this if reproducing her run in a Listed handicap at Newbury earlier this month. This trip clearly suits and she was less than four lengths behind winner Briery Queen, who had Newton Abbot winner Western Sunrise further behind when successful earlier at Doncaster. Rejaah is unexposed but needs more after scoring over 2m at Ludlow and Belcanto had her limitations exposed in the autumn.
