BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE

CITY SELECTIONS A competitive event in which the unexposed IL PESCATORE catches the eye, having offered encouragement when finishing fourth on his stable debut in an above-average novice event at Kempton last month. The four-year-old looks capable of stepping up on his handicap debut and is given the edge over Chillsea, who may still have more to offer for her current yard. Lake Sand and Dors Toyboy both arrive in good form and are others to note.

PLAY SMARTER Another competitive event and it could be worth chancing MIGHTY FINE who has shaped better than the result in both of her UK starts. She looks to be on a workable mark and may offer some value in a tricky race. Lake Sand bids for the C&D hat-trick and he is sure to go close. Chillsea is far from out of it too.
