Verdict
Alaared,Banningham Blaze and Arabian Moon look the three to concentrate on in this claimer and the confident vote goes to Alaared. The selection would win this easily on his best flat form and although he has since been very disappointing over hurdlers this is a very poor race and with conditions in his favour he is taken to score. Banningham Blaze rates the main danger as she is a course and distance winner who was a good second behind Final Dividend last time and will not be far away. Arabian Moon won a claimer over hurdles in good style last time out but his form on the flat when last seen left a little to be desired so can not be backed with any confidence. Of the remainder Gaboor is from a shrewd yard and is worth noting in the market but for the winner we return to Alaared.
