    Verdict

    BOSTON GEORGE (NAP) looked one to follow when a pleasing second on seasonal reappearance at Wetherby. He hasn't scored in three subsequent outings but has been quite highly tried and is appealing here after finishing a fair sixth in a hot handicap at the Ebor meeting. Trip and ground are fine for the Dalgleish inmate. The form profile of Smile A Mile sends out mixed signals but he's a useful type at his best and no surprise should he bounce back from finishing last of five last time. The other four are not in the best of form at present but Irreverent is suggested as next best and Hot Team the one for a market check.
