      Verdict

      This looks a match between Pristeen Spy and Rakatia, with the confident vote going to Pristeen Sky. The selection has won his last two races in good style and won with plenty in hand when beating Native Performance last time out, that form has since been franked and under similar conditions here he is hard to oppose. Rakatia rates the main danger as he won well last time out when beating He's A Dinger the drop in trip should suit and he looks sure to make a bold bid to make all. Court Award is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is hard to win with. Of the remainder No Reward could go well at a price with his yard in form but for the winner we return to Pristeen Sky.
