CITY SELECTIONS SMART CONNECTION displayed a smart turn of foot when getting off the mark at Lingfield last month and the four-year-old looks the one to beat on just his fourth start for this yard. William Buick takes the ride on Aiguillette and the Gary Moore-trained gelding could make another bold bid on a surface which suits him well, while Kodimoor showed himself to be in good form when runner-up over course and distance last time and can also feature.
