        Verdict

        If Ian Williams' AEROPLANE doesn't win this claimer and win it well something would have gone seriously wrong so the six-year-old has our confidence while Flawed Genius could be a danger if actually agreeing to race after refusing to do so the last twice and Riolina looks best of the rest. Rated a full 19lbs better than his nearest rival the pick races off level weights with that opponent and given that he is on form after landing one of these last time he should be in front again. Flawed genius has a mountain to climb to get to the pick but looks the most likely of the field to mount some king of challenge. That¿s on the proviso he actually starts this contest but if he does he looks booked for place honours based on the ratings. Riolina is weighted for minor prizes too after scoring after a break in a similar race last time but with little else in the field making much appeal Aeroplane should be flying in.
