A weak finale but Kenny George will still need to improve on three moderate runs earlier in the year to figure on his handicap debut. O'Rahilly improved here last time and may be suited by the step up in trip but TALKINGPICTURESTV, a winner at Stratford in the summer, was back on song last month at Huntingdon and wouldn’t need much more to land this. Adrakhan could also figure if lasting home.
