CITY SELECTIONS Not much separated Aiguillette (first) and PUFFIN ISLAND (second) when they met at Lingfield last month, and it is the latter who is preferred here thanks to a 4lb swing at the weights. The return to this venue is another plus for the selection as she won over C&D on her penultimate start. Trepidation has been placed on his last two outings at this track and he must have claims, along with Vino Santo, who is expected to relish a step up in trip.

PLAY SMARTER VINO SANTO has yet to win a race, but he reacted really well to blinkers when third at Lingfield a fortnight ago and is now an appealing candidate from the same mark. Puffin Island was just edged out by Aiguillette at Lingfield last month but may well reverse the form this time and is feared most.
