      Verdict

      Little India is a Southwell specialist who is 0-10 on Turf. Despoina has never won a race but has been placed several times and the step up in trip might suit with cheekpieces added. She makes more appeal than an out-of-sorts Bollin Margaret and Quick Waltz but may struggle to give the weight away to the three-year-old CAN CAN GIRL, who has been in good form at Beverley and has more options now she has proved her stamina.
