Verdict
Dual C&D winner ESTONIA continues to show steady improvement and went very close off today's mark at Lingfield last time. She likes to finish with a late rattle off a decent pace and should get that here with confirmed front-runner Island Legend arriving in good form and likely to try and make all. The latter's stablemate Triple Dream isn't out of this and Love You Louis could go well with a recent comeback effort under his belt. A 2lb rise for last month's win at Lingfield may not inconvenience Aldermoor too much, but the drop back to the minimum trip might so Black Baccara makes more appeal.
