      Verdict

      Thunderwing gets the vote in the claimer with Just James and Feelin Irie rating the main dangers. The selection has ran well in handicaps of late without winning, this represents a drop in class and under conditions that suit he looks the one to be on. Just James rates the main danger on his best form but he was very dissapointing in a seller last time out for no apparent reason so he can not be put forward with any confidence. Feelin Irie is another that could go well on his best form but consistency is not his strong point and at likely odds he is taken on. Of the remainder Clear Picture has shown a modicum of ability in two starts to date and could improve again so is worth a cautionary look in the market but for the winner we return to Thunderwing.
