A few with chances but MINNIEMUM arrives on the back of an excellent third at Uttoxeter and is fancied to open her account with this longer trip promising to really suit. Doncaster second La Gomera also has better days ahead of her and is feared most with recent scorers Touchy Feely and Royal Dance completing the shortlist.
