No match for Asteverdi at Sandown in June but C&D winner (good to soft) in August and a solid third behind one who has since outgrown handicaps over 1m at Ascot in September; fairly exposed now but this lesser test might suit better; not far away.

Justified favouritism in small field at Doncaster (soft) where she had the run of things but proved too good for her rivals and won going away; very appealing if the ground is similar, given the debut evidence.
