Verdict

NECOLETA won one of these contests over a mile at Kempton last time having earlier gone close over track and trip. She should be in the mix once again in her current mood. Born To Reason never looked like winning when runner-up in a Brighton seller last month and Chakrii has gone off the boil since placing here on a couple of occasions in August. Dolly McQueen has a chance on a second at Bath while Tops No and Capricorn Prince are among the least exposed.
