Estonia rattled up a double over the minimum trip at Lingfield in December but is now 8lb higher than her last win. In contrast, multiple C&D winner Lord Of The Reins is back on a winning mark, but he has a bit to find on earlier form with Absa Lutte and Riflessione. Danzoe is another to consider in a typically open sprint, but the vote goes to KYLLADDIE. He ran really well from a wide draw behind Breathless Kiss in a better grade contest over C&D in December and can race off a 5lb lower mark today.
