Vesnina struggled with injuries lately, but now she is healthy and is training hard to find form for this tournament, because for her Wimbledon is very important, and I'm sure she will use all her power to show good results here, in last tournament in 's-Hertogenbosch she lost against Sandra Zahlavova 7-5 6-2, but on this tournament she always played very bad, and had any interest on it, but for Wimbledon she is very motivated..
On the other hand Zahlavova is mediocre player, she never had any success on grass surface, and fast courts are not her favorite really, because of it I think Vesnisa looks very good bet here, and -3 handicap is acceptable for me..
She had good run last year on Wimbledon, managed to win against Yanina Wickmayer 6-1 6-1, Vera Dushevina 6-3 6-4, Dominika Cibulkova 7-5 4-6 6-4, and than lost against Elena Dementieva 6-1 6-3.. I don't think that Zahlavova is capable to make big problems in this match...
