A tough race to call here for punters with many in form rivals in opposition in this claimer including Bella Pavlina, Aveiro and Spanish Star and the vote goes to Aveiro. The gelding from the Brendan Powell yard has been in fair form of late. He was a fair third behind Fall In Line in a better race last time and now he is drooped in grade he is taken to win again off what looks a fair mark. Bella Pavlina rates the main danger he was fourth behind Mandoob last time and is another dropping in grade. However he looks to have plenty of weight and for that reason he is opposed. Spanish Star is game and consistent but his best form is when there is an end to end gallop and he is not sure to get that here so is passed over on this occasion. Of the remainder a market move for the newcomer Again Jane should be noted but he will need to be up to scratch to beat the selection Averio.
