CITY SELECTIONS CRIMSON SAND’s recent win and placed efforts over C&D read well, particularly his length second behind a 96-rated performer last time, and he looks the one to beat under talented apprentice George Rooke. Ahlawi was just a further length behind the selection latest and now tries cheekpieces for the first time. He and the top-rated Nigel Nott, who is a three-time track scorer, could ask most questions.
