Nemo Fugat has a chance to reverse form with Northern Games tonight and we offer Dandy Nicholls' charge the vote. Nemo Fugat was a useful horse when with Richard Hannon but he has been running consistently of late and in a weak heat, he should be capable of reversing Catterick form with Northern Games. That said Northern Games was producing his best effort for some time and his stable continue to be in form. Oeuf A La Neige made the best of a favourable draw to win a "hands and heels race". Now he faces an extra furlong and a battle with the whips. Pure Folly ran reasonably following a five month lay off when finishing fifth at Lingfield. She has no weight to carry here. Saros was seen staying on well in a Thirsk handicap last week. This is Waltzing Wizard's best trip but this is a big ask at these weights. Nemo Fugat gets our vote in the penultimate race.
