Verdict
In this claimer that has a mixed bag of a field including a horse rated as low as 34 the vote has to go the way of last time out winner DESERT BUMP with Precocious Air rated the main danger and the unraced Michelle an interesting entry. The selection progressed well in maidens before breaking that tag last time out under today's pilot. This time he steps up to a mile for the first time but he won with all manner of ease n that last outing and this race looks at his mercy again. Precocious Air looks to have it all to make up based on the official ratings but has been running well this winter. The form from his last time out place has been franked with the sixth placed horse going on to claim a seller but the pick looks a bit classier. Michelle has a bit in her breeding to give her a chance but will find it tough on debut while it's find hard to recommend any of the others so Dersert Bump should win it.
