Formwatch
Mitcheldean (IRE) is an improving horse and he won well last time out on testing ground, the only worry is that he may not be as effective on this faster ground but if he handles the ground he should go close. Miniatura is not the best of jumpers but if he stands up he should go close with conditions in his favour. Phil Sanders is also in with a chance.
