BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE

CITY SELECTIONS Sir Rodneyredblood has to be respected having won over C&D last time but a 5lb rise will make his life tougher today. With that in mind, preference is for INVINCIBLE LARNE, who was not beaten far at all off this mark in a similar event here in late September. Others who merit consideration are Jack The Truth, Restless Endeavour and Red Walls.

PLAY SMARTER GIORGIO VASARI has joined a trainer that can rejuvenate a new recruit, and given this colt was tried at Group level as a juvenile he could take advantage of a mark of 69 tonight. Red Walls was tough when beating a subsequent winner last time and he’ll be a big danger. Araifjan can never be ruled out in these events either.
