Another competitive field goes to post for this claimer and the main protagonists look to be Rafters Music, Lakota Brave and Zarzu and we will take a chance on the course specialist Rafters Music. The gelding from the Barry Hills yard was a good second behind Czar Wars last time out in a better race and now he is dropped to claiming company he will be hard to beat. Lakota Brave rates the main danger on his latest third behind Whaleef and he to goes well on the course. Zarzu is another worthy of respect but he has yet to win over this trip so for that reason is opposed on this occasion. Of the remainder Headland is from a yard in form and he has lots of ability but he does not like using it so we are happy to side with Rafters Music.
