Verdict

SMITHSCORNER comfortably accounted for Mega Mindy at Wexford and has been given a break since that victory last month. He is only 4lb worse in and can confirm the form. Mega Mindy won in good style at Limerick at the weekend and is back for more under a 5lb penlaty. She should go well if able to shrug off that race just 48 hours ago. Veteran Sizing Solution still looks capable of playing his part, and Myrons will appreciate the drop in trip and is less exposed than most.
