CITY SELECTIONS It is hard to get away from SKY BLUE THINKING having won her last three on the all-weather since joining the Adam West outfit. 2lb well-in after her most recent success at Wolverhampton, the daughter of Charming Thought can bring up the four-timer. Bobby On The Beat hasn’t been far away from breaking the maiden tag this season and he is considered, along with course winner Romulan Prince. Ripon scorer Miss Bella Brand and Jackstar complete the shortlist. SKY BLUE THINKING
