Verdict
Yankee Storm's recent second to Qadar over 6f here is good form but the drop back to the minimum trip doesn't look ideal. ESTONIA on the other hand has won twice over C&D and had Your Gifted just behind when third here last time. She also has the beating of Efistorm on earlier running and Michael Squance's filly has the scope for further improvement. Black Baccara usually runs well without winning and a similar outcome is expected here, while Romantic Queen makes most appeal of the remainder.
