      Verdict

      It's difficult to get a handle on Mica Mika given she was well beaten in three starts on the all-weather before going close in better company over a shorter trip last week. GIOIA DI VITA looks a safer bet as David Thompson's colt was only beaten a short-head over track and trip last month and a similar effort would make him hard to beat in this. Lineman has been practically tailed off in a couple of starts since winning a maiden race here back in September and All The Winds hasn't figured in four subsequent outings having gone close over course and distance in November.
