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.

Probable S.P’s: 15-8 Sunray Major (GB), 7-2 Discover Dubai (IRE), 5-1 Lord Lovelace (GB), 9-1 Great Hunter (IRE), 16-1 Ciotog (IRE), 22-1 Ivan Drago (GB), 28-1 Cuban Musketeer (IRE), 33-1 Miss Paloma (GB), 40-1 Il Pescatore (IRE), Pivotal Time (GB), 66-1 Mighty Mind (GB), 80-1 Pyrrhos (GB), 200-1 No Such Luck (IRE)

PLAY SMARTER SUNRAY MAJOR disappointed when last seen and has a 15-month absence to overcome, but such was the impression he created in beating a strong field on debut, he has to be worth another chance to improve. Discover Dubai remains capable of better provided he stands training, with recent debut winner Lord Lovelace also respected under a penalty.
