Verdict

An above average claimer in which PADDY BEAR is the pick with Stellite and Dream Express the dangers. The selection dotted up in a Catterick seller and while connections have gone on record as saying that he has had problems, the trip should suit him better than most. Stellite is a seven furlong specialist. He wouldn't want any further rain to hit the area. Dream Express does not look the most trustworthy of characters. He was somewhat reluctant in victory at Beverley though the figures make a compelling enough case. Teachers Choice has more duckeggs than a farm shop but some of his Irish form looks smart. Ice Planet was once a progressive handicapper for Dandy Nicholls, it is hard to believe how quickly it has all gone to pieces. Strabinios King is arguably better on the all-weather rather than on the turf. Chin Wag might find this on the sharp side. Another Luke appears to have not trained on whilst the others have stones to find on the official BHA handicapper's figures. Paddy Bear can prosper again.
