Verdict
TALK OF SAAFEND continues to win claiming races and is the pick of these weights; King Of The Moors and Moody Tunes make it to the shortlist. Richard Hannon's filly is possibly slightly flattered by her official rating of 75 but she has impressed on her two recent runs, wining easily at both Kempton and Yarmouth. She seems to be taking her racing well and as she handles any ground, she gets our vote. Moody Tunes is a course and distance winner and likes this ground; despite top weight he should run well. King Of The Moors is dropped in class after a poor run at Beverley but that was his first run at that track and he is better than that showing; soft ground holds no fears and if he were to gain an easy lead then he'd be hard to peg back. Grethel is a course and distance winner but like Getrah has plenty to find at these weights, whilst Top Jaro and Recoil return from absences and each has something to prove at present. Not a poor claimer and Talk Of Saafend can continue her winning streak.
