Verdict
Lady Devika sets the standard on the official figures and has to be considered in a race that will not take much winning. However, she has been expensive to follow so far and is not one to go overboard about. The main difficulty arises in finding a solid selection against her chance and a prudent approach is advised. A One put in his best effort for sometime at Leicester last month and heads the shortlist for the opposition along with Bogus Ballet, who should have a race of this nature in her somewhere along the line.
