Verdict

Dramatic, Drifting Gold and Hollywood George are all worth considering here and the narrow vote is given to Hollywood George. The selection has been given a little break and changed stables since he scored over this course and distance from the same draw at the end of April. That was in a claimer and he is back into handicap company here but this does not look to be the strongest of races and he might just be up to landing it. Drifting Gold is an obvious danger as he has a good draw but he is better over a slighty shorter trip and for that reason we will take him on. Dramatic has to be of interest because this 3-year-old from the Sir Mark Prescott yard is making his handicap debut and he is also stepped-up in trip. Welsh Auction has been running well of late and should not be discounted, but Hollywood George arrives here in good heart and looks the percentage call.
