      Verdict

      Drish Melody is the only course winner though her victory was over 7f from 7lb lower. She finished behind both Sangria, who finished first past but was disqualified here in November, and Dubirango in a similar race over 7f last time and the latter could be better suited by the extra than his rivals. SATIN SNAKE (NAP) was beaten three lengths by Drish Melody over 7f last month but was staying on strongly after completely missing the break. He'll be 7lb better off with his rider's claim taken into consideration and that could be enough for him to get off the mark.
