Green Area is our selection at Catterick, and his progressive profile makes him the one to side with over the 12 furlongs on good to firm. He sits just three pounds behind the top-rated Ina Mina on our figures, a gap that a rising type can readily bridge, and he is two pounds adrift of Secret Beach. Ina Mina and Secret Beach are the chief dangers on raw ability, while Prince of Calypso is also firmly in the mix in a tightly packed seven-runner field. Confidence is low in such an open contest, but Green Area's upward trajectory gives him the edge, and he is the pick.
