      Verdict

      SIOUX WARRIOR finished runner-up over 5f in a Doncaster maiden on her debut but should get the 6f trip here on faster going. She finished in front of Battaah on that occasion, who subsequently placed back at the same track and is preferred to Politico. Havanarama debuted here and is another likely improver but stablemate Watcha Matey is bred for further so Overlooked makes most appeal of the newcomers.
