Verdict
This looks tougher than the claimer Valantino Oyster won at Redcar last time with most of the opposition dropping down from handicaps. Moshe has every chance in this grade but SPIFER may just edge it on today's terms if running anywhere near his current mark. Monsea also has a shout with Silvestre De Sousa back on board and Thatchereen can figure on the best of last year's form. Both The Alamo and War Poet beat lower rated rivals when landing sellers earlier this season and face a more difficult task in this.
