Miniyamba appears to favour cut in the ground given her much improved run at Ffos Las latest so it worth considering if the rain comes. EASTWELL SMILES has been putting in eye-catching runs over the hurdles lately including a win at Bangor most recently and we side with him to win this contest. He should have an advantage in stamina having run over slightly further lately. Torran Sound is a threat in a weak race.
