Verdict
MY CLAIRE went close in a lowly handicap here last time and may finally open her account in this company. Poppy Bond has also finished closer of late having slipped down the weights and looks the main danger. It's difficult to make a case for any of the remainder as Bladewood Girl has yet to show any benefit for her slide down the handicap and Cheers Big Ears was still well beaten despite making the frame here last time.
