Verdict

Nakeeta is only a pound higher than when scoring at Ayr around this time last year and has been consistent this season but he’s a 10-year-old now and has never won over a trip this far. Dance To Paris edged out GHADBBAAN at York last month with Eagle Court fourth but the runner-up could come out best this time on slightly better terms. Bollin Neil is weighted to reverse Catterick running with Let Me Be and makes most of appeal of the others with Land Of Winter still looking a few pounds too high.
