ST GEORGE'S HEAD is thriving all of a sudden and found only one too good having been up with a strong pace over C&D, so he's fancied to regain the winning thread in an open contest. Jack Berry House was in top form prior to a blip 9 days ago, so he's also respected along with the consistent Jered Maddox.
