Regex and Redirecting Old URI's to New Pages

I redesigned an old .asp site and Google is still caching the old URLs, for now I want to redirect them all to the relevant new pages, there are a bunch of URL's which can just go to the homepage however.

They all have this path http://www.website.co.uk/default.asp?UniqueID=193

So I want to get at all these default.asp? query pages and Redirect 301 them to the homepage.

Would something like this work? It's a live site and I don't want to make it do a horrid 500 server error loop of doom!

RewriteEngine On
RedirectMatch 301 ^/default.asp?(.*)$ /
