    Verdict

    We can't see too many of these getting into what is not a particularly competitive event, and we will side with Tiger Talk to get the better of Pottsy's Joy, Bergamo and Clear Dawn. The Richard Guest-trained Tiger Talk steps back up in trip after having won over 2m 3f here last time. However, he has stayed well enough before, handles the ground and in a race where few are in form he can follow up. Pottsy's Joy has never run on ground on the fast side of good, so we will learn whether he will handle it today. His effort over this sort of trip at Doncaster last time marks him out as a leading contender if he does go on it, and so he is given plenty of respect. Bergamo certainly does go over this trip on fast ground and the drop in grade will see him much closer than last time, while Clear Dawn continues over hurdles after reverting from fences last time and will also like conditions. But Tiger Talk comes from an in-form yard and looks just about good enough to take this last race of the year at Catterick.
