Verdict

This claimer will not take too much winning and it should principally concern Oriel Lady, Cheverak Forest and Miss Brookie, with the latter our pick of the trio. Miss Brookie has shown a consistent level of form and was successful at Thirsk for Karl Burke in April. She was claimed afterwards by Bill Turner and was strongly fancied to add to her tally on a return to the Yorkshire track 12 days ago but was unruly going down to the start and was beaten narrowly by the equally fancied Bella Boy Zee. She has ability, that's for sure and can prove it here at the expense of Cheverak Forest, whose stable know the time of day with their youngsters. However, the concession of weight to the selection is expected to tip the scales in Miss Brookie's favour.
