Verdict

GEOLOGICAL represents a good local yard and the gelding can register a second victory of the season by taking this eight runner handicap. The selection is returning from a break and he can get the better of last time out winner Beckwith Place while third place can go to Yuften who carries top weight on his return to handicaps.
