In depth
Verdict
In a very weak race, Miss Procurer should just about prove good enough. with Big Bad Burt and Ivory Coast the only realistic dangers. Miss Procurer is the pick of these on BHB ratings, and her fourth behind Stevedore in a claimer at Leicester last month would certainly be good enough form to win this. Big Bad Burt disappointed at Chester last time but had earlier showed reasonable form in a Yarmouth claimer which would entitle him to a chance here, while Ivory Coast is another to consider, having won a handicap on Lingfield's polytrack in the spring, although he was behind Big Bad Burt in the aforementioned Yarmouth race. In truth, there is little to get excited about here, but the vote goes to Miss Procurer.
