Augusta George heads this 12-runner field on good ground at Downpatrick, rated narrowly ahead of Pralognan and with a modest edge over Tropical Twist and Leitzel, and he has already been seen over this 18-furlong trip and on this ground, which should help him press home that advantage in the closing stages. Pralognan and Tropical Twist are the most credible threats, while Leitzel cannot be entirely dismissed, but none of the three quite match Augusta George on current form. The selection carries medium confidence on a tricky track, yet the overall profile points his way.
**Augusta George** is our selection.
