Verdict
THE RIGHT CHOICE can get James Ferguson’s training career off to a flying start by landing this claimer. The four-year-old has been disappointing this year but is 2-4 around here and hasn’t got much to beat. He is getting 3lb from the three-year-old Bedtime Bella, who is the danger according to official ratings. Awsaaf makes a quick reappearance after finishing fourth at Wolverhampton on Saturday and makes more appeal than Kyllachy Warrior and Falcao.
