Torrens gets the confident vote in the claimer with Cripsey Brook and Bronze Dancer rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind Eva Soneva So Fast in a handicap last time out, This represents a drop in class and with his yard continuing in good form he looks the one to be on. Cripsey Brook rates the main danger as he will relish conditions and is another dropping in class but he is not getting any younger at the age of 9. Bronze Dancer was disappointing behind Mae Cigan last time but it would be no surprise if he bounced back to form on this faster surface. Paparaazi has the ability to go close off this mark but does not often use it while Hook Money remains a maiden and with this in mind for the winner we return to the dropped in grade Torrens.
