This is a reference request for the following result. Let $X$ be a random matrix following the matrix variate $t$-distribution $T_{p,m}(\nu, M, U, V)$ (as defined in Wikipedia). Then $$ \frac{\det(U)}{\det\bigl(U + (X-M)V^{-1}{(X-M)}'\bigr)} $$ has the same distribution as the product $B_1 \ldots B_m$ of $m$ independent random variables $B_i \sim \textrm{Beta}\left(\frac{\nu+m-i}{2}, \frac{p}{2}\right)$.
This result is checked by simulations in R below.
This result is given in Geisser's article Bayesian estimation in multivariate analysis but it is a bit hidden: it is given in a Bayesian context where a particular matrix variate $t$-distribution appears without name, and the proof is only sketched.
I'm looking for a reference which precisely states this result. It is not given in Gupta & Nagar's book Matrix variate distributions.
