        Verdict

        Plenty with claims in a tricky plating race. Lunar Deity was winning decent handicaps on the all-weather at this time last year while Marshgate Lane and Regarde Moi are closely matched on their running in a claimer at Southwell earlier this month. But Big Whiskey came up short when favourite for a seller at Lingfield back in September while Gramercy had just the one start last year when placed at Beverley. AQUA LIBRE has not raced since August but finished a close-up fourth in a Newmarket handicap on that occasion and a chance is taken she can run up to the same level on her reappearance.
