CITY SELECTIONS LORD LOVELACE created a good impression when scoring on debut at Kempton last month and gets the vote to add another success here, despite shouldering a penalty. Sunray Major is a half-brother to multiple Group 1 victor Kingman and looks to be the main danger returning from a year-long break. Discover Dubai also has claims and could be sharper after a recent run at Newcastle, while Great Hunter looks the pick of the newcomers. LORD LOVELACE
