      Verdict

      An interesting fillies' handicap in which Estimation just gets the verdict from a number of possible options. The selection is three pounds higher in the ratings following a course and distance win last time and, while a little bit more is needed, this small field should suit her. Turning to the others. Ellen Mooney is a course and distance winner from a mark of 65 but is now rated 70. Inchcoonan, a three-time winner at this time last year from a high of 65, clearly comes into the reckoning from a mark of 62. The downside is that she has a 276-day absence to overcome. Irish import Soft Mist could be interesting off a rating of 61, as she has already won in Ireland from a mark of 57. Nuzzle notched a course and distance maiden win last time although the form is not exceptional. On a line through Magic Mamma's Too, Najaaba has similar form to Nuzzle, but Pooka's Daughter is now rated eight-pounds lower than when winning at Wolverhampton around this time last year. If putting her best foot forward, she cannot be ruled out as she has proven that she acts here. All in all, though, we'll opt for Estimation.
