Verdict
Mrs Burbidge wins her fair share and had six lengths to spare over the second last time at Southwell. She has to go on the short-list again, despite her penalty, but BARAZA has more scope and he attracted significant market support when a close-up fourth at Exeter at the start of last month. Double Court possibly needs further but is holding his form well, despite a rising mark. Shanaway was much improved in cheekpieces at Plumpton eight days ago and also has a squeak if the aids work a second time.
