      Verdict

      LATE SHIPMENT, who won at Lingfield and Newmarket last year, would only need to reproduce his fourth at the latter track in May to see off this lot. Star Anise won twice over course and distance in October and drops a grade for this. She looks the only conceivable danger with Aristocratic Duty worth opposing on stamina terms and neither Golden Bird nor Mister Uno having shown much lately.
