A difficult race to wrap things up with and Estimation, after a cracking effort at Brighton last week, is just preferred over All weather regulars Nite Owl Fizz, Hoh's Back and Air Of Esteem - although Futuristic will also be interesting to steal a place if supported. However, Estimation hinted that her turn is not too far away when she was just short-headed by a 72-rated rival on the south coast last week and will be hard to master if she turns up for this weak event in the same mood. There is no reason to expect the daughter of Mark Of Esteem not to arrive here ready for the battle and she can finally gain some compensation for a series of decent efforts from this term. Nite Owl Fizz is always dangerous to dismiss at this level and is just preferred over Ho's Back to chase the selection home. Futuristic is better than her recent form figures would suggest and is one to watch out for on her first visit to Southwell since she lost her maiden tag earlier in the year. However, the assessor has Estimation in as a 2lb better horse at present and, with a clear run, she should confirm that belief today.
