Some promise; closest she has come to winning after five starts was a second; respectable effort (Vaal) two weeks ago; every chance from a nice draw and her latest run was promising.

Verdict
First Frost must enter calculations while Tiger's Captain is one to consider. But ASTROPHILE is strongly fancied to come out on top. She appeals most from the plum draw and put in an eyecatching run last time out.
