River Amora, Wondersobright and Sweet Minuet are the three to consider here and preference is for River Amora to pick up the winning thread once again. Wondersobright would prefer more testing ground although he turned in an improved display to be fourth last time. He has only a Clonmel win to his credit and it is worth waiting until conditions are in his favour. Having finished third in her last two starts at Chepstow and Plumpton, Sweet Minuet has proved herself to be the epitome of consistency. However, her winning record of one win in twenty six starts is poor, and she can be taken on. River Amora runs well here though and looks the one to be on. He won here three outings ago and returned to the track to finish second last time. This is a weak affair and River Amora is taken to score at a track he likes.
