THE OSTEOPATH won a couple of claimers last year including a similar event at this track in August. John Davies' veteran has every chance on today's terms and makes more appeal than Broctune Papa Gio. The latter also won here last term but over a shorter trip and usually saves his best for Redcar. Scrutiny continues to struggle at this lowly level but it remains to be seen how Dalmarella Dancer gets on dropped in class though she has shown little of late.
