      Verdict

      Josear,Sonntag Blue and Ferrara Flame look the three to concentrate on in this claimer and the vote is given to Josear. The selection has been in fair form of late without winning but he was a fair fourth behind Wansdyke Lass last time out. This looks easier and with the step up in trip looking sure to suit he will be hard to beat. Sonntag Blue rates the main danger as he was a fair fourth behind Princeable Lady last time but he has been tried over a variety of trips without success and he looks to have his own ideas about the game so he can not be put forward with any confidence. Ferrara Flame was a fair third behind Courageously last time and is another with place claims but she has yet to prove she stays this far. However her style of running suggests that she will. Of the remainder Bellalou is from a shrewd yard and should be noted in the market but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Josear.
