Verdict
York Key Bar has failed to open his account in six starts but has run well in defeat on several occasions including when third at Wolverhampton last time but Brian Ellison's gelding may again have to settle for minor honours with a better bet looking to be LA CAPRIOSA, who gets the verdict ahead of Dispol Grand. The last mentioned has been running creditably in handicaps of late without winning and he has to be respected being dropped into a claimer for the first time today. Red Cell won by the narrowest of margins when taking a Lingfield seller but has struggled in handicaps before and since then and he has to be considered being dropped into this grade. Adozen Dreams has given little cause for optimism since winning a Musselburgh nursery in July and he looks best watched at present in a race where the vote goes to La Capriosa. Alan McCabe's filly comes into this in good heart following a win in a Southwell claimer prior to a decent effort when second in a Wolverhampton handicap last time. A reproduction of either of those efforts may well suffice in this company.
