Cost €40,000 as a three-year-old and has already paid his way with wins in a bumper and over hurdles. The Kayf Tara gelding failed to complete in two of his three previous starts over fences, though, and now comes here with a bit to prove.
Poor completion rate so far and a bit of a leap of faith would be required to support him in only his second start since November 2016. Others more appealing this time around.
Well held behind a decent type latest but this looks potentially easier and, given that he's on a handy enough mark just now, the gelding has a solid chance at the weights.
Bits and pieces of form over hurdles give the mare a chance but she is still a maiden after 10 previous attempts and is probably best watched on, this, her first start over fences.

Forecasts
Just Minded (5/4), Bigpipenotobacee (3/1), Minella Tweet (3/1), Romulus Du Donjon (5/1), Phoeniciana (11/2)
MINELLA TWEET has plenty going for him at this level and looks the most reliable option from a moderate bunch. Just Minded may have more to offer now that he's actually completed a round of fencing, so he merits a check in the betting. While Phoeniciana has some solid hurdles form to her name and could be a the main beneficiary if her main rivals get themselves into a tangle.
