      Verdict

      GO GEORGE GO notched-up a four timer at Newcastle during the winter. He was below par at Southwell last time but may return to form back on Tapeta given today’s opposition is uninspiring to say the least. Percys Princess finished third over track and trip last week but has won just the once in 36 attempts while Rum Swizzle, Saint Thomas and Hussar Ballad all return to action but none look particularly well handicapped.
