Verdict

In the second of the sellers, Hollywood George gets the vote ahead of Mickleberry and Solidgoldeasyaction. Kevin Ryan sent out a well-backed winner of this contest three years ago and he runs Hollywood George in this race, who is the highest-rated of the runners and looks set to benefit from the drop to this level for the first time. Mickleberry showed promise in maiden company last year and, dropping to this grade for the first time, could be interesting too on his seasonal return. Of the others, Solidgoldeasyaction won at this level over course and distance last time but it looks as though he will need to improve again if he is to score today. Marist Madam is closely weighted with her based on that win. Peggys Flower was behind the pair of them that day. All of which returns us to the selection, which is Hollywood George.
