Verdict
Mister Miyagi was well backed on his chasing bow at Uttoxeter and didn’t disappoint. He’s probably a decent recruit but has to give 6lb to his two rivals. MINELLA AWARDS was placed in a point-to-point as a four-year-old. He went on to show useful form over hurdles, winning a Grade 3 at Sandown and a competitive handicap at Punchestown, and will be tough to beat if taking to fences. Asum was tailed off on his first run over the larger obstacles so has a bit to prove now.
