    There's no best move, but Shredder's database suggests 5.Nc3 or 5.c4.

    I always play Nc3 there. That knight usually comes out to c6 eventually. Proceed with setting up a Yugoslav attack and you'll run black right over.

    This is not yet any variation of the Sicilian Dragon until Black plays  ..Nf6 then ..g6.

    This is a very safe and sound system to play against all diffrent dragons:

    I would play 5.c4, as Black's fourth move failed to prevent it (usually ...Nf6 Nc3 is played first).

    If that's not to your taste, 5.Nc3 will likely be followed by Nf6, transposing into the Classical Sicilian.
