    Verdict

    Four of the five runners have good chances in this claimer but the vote narrowly goes to KING SUPREME ahead of Visions of Johanna, Maadraa and Locum. Consistency in handicaps has been the pick's modus operandi of late so Richard Hannon has decided to drop his charge into this company for the first time to try and finally score again and the colt should oblige. Visions of Johanna will have the ground conditions in his favour and certainly benefitted for a run in this company last time out. His yard is still sending out winners so he should be challenging again. Maadraa has a bit to find according to the ratings but may go better amongst these rivals while Locum has a chance on his very best form. Tight little claimer this but King Of Supreme should prosper for the step down in class.
