RACING POST VERDICT

Kateira heads our ratings on 157, a clear seven pounds ahead of Laafi and Knickerbockerglory on 150, and that is a meaningful edge in a 17-runner Class 2 over two miles on good to soft. The rest of the field is stacked further back, with Sony Bill on 142 and Gibbs Island on 141 the next best, so she sets the standard on figures. Laafi and Knickerbockerglory are the obvious dangers, with Sony Bill the other to keep onside, and a big field always brings some trouble in running. Kateira still looks the strongest on merit and is our selection.
