Verdict
QUEEN AMINATU is on the upgrade and followed a novice win with a convincing victory at Lingfield on her handicap bow. The Haggas filly looks capable of defying a 7lb rise in the weights with all of today’s opposition making their seasonal debuts. Rock Melody and Anificas Beauty are both novice winners while River Pride landed a handicap at Chelmsford in November and is preferred to stablemate Rousay.
