      Verdict

      It's difficult to see past DONNA GRACIOSA (NAP) after her second place at Newmarket and she's only 4lb higher than her victory at Beverley in May. Medina Sidonia hasn't shown much in two starts for Tim Easterby since arriving from France but has plenty of scope and it will be a surprise if his handler doesn't find a race for him soon. The Wee Barra has been beaten in some very modest handicaps and the remaining pair haven't shown enough to be considered.
