CITY SELECTIONS BRAINS is 2-7 at this venue and has racked up a hat-trick in the past, so must be taken seriously following back-to-back wins at Lingfield and Ffos Las. Impressive wins, too, a clear indicator that Jamie Osborne has his five-year-old back to his best. The only slight concern would be the trip, but he’s lightly raced over 10 furlongs and can strike at the main expense of Global Art and Dual Identity.
