Defi gets the vote in this claimer with Burnley Al and Primarily rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Thornaby Green and in what looks an easier race under conditions that suit he will be hard to beat. Burnley Al rates the main danger on his latest fourth behind Zendaro, this looks easier and with his yard in form he should be noted in the market but his best form is over a slightly longer trip and is opposed for that reason. Primarily is another that could go well on his best form but he remains a maiden after 21 attempts and in a poor affair for the winner we return to Defi who at least is in form.
