Venetia Williams has her string in good order just now and the in-form yard may be worth siding with again as GEORDIE B takes the next step froward in his development. The step up in trip can be expected to suit and the gelding is a worthy candidate in a race that lacks a lot of strength in depth. Chinensis looks an interesting recruit for an equally highly respected yard, while Diger Daudaie is not out of this despite picking up a 6lb penalty for winning last time out. Support in the betting for Samburu Shujaa could also be rewarding to follow if the odds are attractive enough for a place bet.
