An easy winner last time GEORGE TRAVIS is taken to follow up in this handicap chase with Jamadiel and Good Man Sir looking the dangers. 11 lengths was the winning margin for the pick last time on his first go over course and distance. The fast ground won't be a bother and his mark rise seems fair. Jamadiel was the horse in third behind the pick last time and should be closer here but is unlikely to overturn the form while Good Man Sir makes a debut on quick ground and after an improved run last time can be considered. Dream Home was second behind the selection on his last run so is also unlikely to reverse the result so George Travis is a confident pick.
