Verdict

Willie Mullins saddles nearly half of the field but the British-trained MINELLA STUDY may trump them all for his small yard having created a very favourable impression over C&D in December. The runner-up that day did plenty for the form of that race on Tuesday and his limit hasn't been reached. Highland Crystal beat the Fred Winter winner last time so she demands respect, with Proactif perhaps the pick of the Closutton battalion.
