Verdict

With six horses rated over 70 this has the makings of a good contest; preference is for recent Great Leighs winner ELECTRIC WARRIOR ahead of Xtra Torrential and Avertis. Karl Burke's gelding had a fine opportunity when last seen and grasped it well. Rated 85, it is no surprise to see him in claiming company again and from a good draw he should run well. Xtra Torrential is the highest rated in the line-up; he was an easy winner back in January at the track but was then disappointing when seen in August at Kempton and he remains a risky betting proposition. Red Somerset is consistent and drops in class into this company for the first time. He is still paying for a profitable spell in the summer but is one from one on the all-weather. Obezyana and Imprimis Tagula are fair but have a bit to find at these weights, High Profit represents a National Hunt yard going well, whilst Avertis won well last time out at Southwell and he has an excellent strike-rate. A decent claimer, in which we will side with Electric Warrior.
