Verdict

Rod Millman's GEORGE THISBY was not at his best on the Polytrack at Kempton earlier this month but had won well over course and distance on his previous start and he looks worth backing to do so again here racing off just a 3lb higher mark. Jamie Osborne's Super Yellow and Willie Muir's Dream Number have been running consistently well but seem a shade high in the weights. Milton Bradley's Emiratesdotcom has won his last two outings but is now 10lb higher than when taking the first of them and he looks best left out of calculations, while John Spearing's Bermondsey Bob is likely to find this tougher than the race that he won at Brighton earlier this month.
