Verdict

Serene Beauty made a winning start at Wolverhampton in March but this is much tougher and her trainer does not have a great record at the track. Eastern Dragon's win here in October was one of three victories last year that all came on testing ground and it was also heavy going when Cosmic Ray won at Windsor last term. GORING made amends for an earlier disqualification when winning a Beverley maiden last time. He beat a horse rated 76 so should cope at this level now handicapping and gets the nod.
