CITY SELECTIONS May Sonic should be suited by the return to the Polytrack after a recent outing at York and has to be considered. However, a chance is taken on CHOCOYA, who was a comfortable winner at Salisbury, despite having to encounter traffic problems. The daughter of Sepoy has been keeping better company this season and gets the vote to overcome a 3lb rise for her latest success. Inveigle is an interesting contender and he could be a different proposition now tackling sprint distances. CHOCOYA

Kieran Shoemark J Charles Hills, Lambourn T Stonegate Homes S TIMEFORM VIEW Already a 3-time winner on all-weather this year, the latest coming in a C&D handicap in July. Not in TFRHHHHI BHA104 same form in competitive York handicap latest and return to an artificial surface a plus.
James Doyle J Hugo Palmer, Newmarket T Stratford Place Stud S TIMEFORM VIEW Dual winner of AW novice events (at 6f) last year who went close in listed events during the spring. Capitalised on switch to handicaps to score at Salisbury (6f) 2 weeks ago and not discounted. TFRHHHHI BHA95 Br Ch f Sepoy (AUS) - Silver Games (IRE) O Mr Christopher Wright B Stratford Place Stud
Br B g Gale Force Ten - Shamarlane O Life’s A Breeze B John Cullinan
Ray Dawson J Richard Hughes, Upper Lambourn T Richard Hughes Racing Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Capitalised on sliding mark to score over C&D in June but not scaled same heights in trio of starts on TFRHHHII BHA88 turf/AW subsequently. Blinkers again the headgear of choice. Br B g Dark Angel (IRE) - Sand Vixen O The Queen B Godolphin
Callum Shepherd J Michael Bell, Newmarket T
TIMEFORM VIEW Course winner. Latest win at Yarmouth in June. Respectable fourth of 8 in minor event (9/2) at Ascot (8f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Down in trip and no forlorn hope given he’s still unexposed on AW. TFRHHHII BHA90

Sean Kirrane (5) J David O’Meara, Upper Helmsley T Gain Equine Nutrition S TIMEFORM VIEW 4 wins from 15 runs this year, the latest coming at York (5f) in July. Efforts mixed since but not disgraced TFRHHHII BHA85 despite finishing eighth of 9 at Newmarket latest. Engaged 3.10 Beverley Wednesday.

David Egan J Stuart Williams, Newmarket T Tote S TIMEFORM VIEW Losing run stretches back to 2019 but better signs of late, shaping much better than bare result when TFRHHHHH BHA85 eighth of 11 at Newcastle (5f) 2 weeks ago, racing on outer wing. He’s one to bear in mind.
