      Verdict

      SIX WIVES defied her massive starting price and ran out a cosy winner over C&D last week. She definitely won't start 66/1 today as this looks far less competitive and Dandy Nicholls' filly can go in again, despite a 6lb rise. Recent placed efforts by Dancing Freddy and Musical Bridge make them the chief dangers as Bateleur has gone off the boil since scoring at Bath last month and Decider's victory at the same track in April was his only win on turf in 19 starts.
