AL KHIMIYA is the form pick to land this claimer with both Daniella de Bruijn and Persona Non Grata worth noting. The selection has been in good form throughout the summer and was in winning form at this venue on his penultimate start over seven furlongs. He is now four pounds well in compared to his last meeting with Daniella de Bruijn and if at his best he has every chance of reversing the form. Persona Non Grata has run only moderately in his two outings to date and although this is a drop in grade a personal best will be required.
