In depth
Verdict
Plummet has shown enough in her three starts to date to warrant support ahead of the likes of Summer Serenade, Authority and Remus Lupin. Plummet was definitely disappointing at Windsor in August when sent off as an odds-on chance, finishing third, but her earlier close second at Kempton gives cause for encouragement and if she is fit enough for her return, John Gosden's filly can come good in a race that will take little winning. Her main rival appears to be Summer Serenade who has a bit of experience as well, and who has already had a taste of the all-weather. She too will surely find an opening in the winter, while of the rest, Authority may appreciate the longer journey as will Remus Lupin. Mtilly pulled too hard on her Nottingham debut but may improve as time goes on and so is worth noting, but Plummet has shown more on the track, and despite that lacklustre effort last time, she is still the one to beat.
