      Verdict

      LADY MARGAEUX has shown enough to suggest she can win an ordinary maiden. Placed in all three starts to date, a reproduction of her latest second at Chester should be enough to come out best here. Chant finished closer on the Polytrack last time and is preferred to Marhaba Malayeen and Reconsider Baby while Excellent Mariner is related to three winners and makes more appeal than Ragnarr on her debut. Fellow newcomer Polar Chief has plenty of speed in his pedigree and the half-brother to five winners is another to note in the betting.
