BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE

CITY SELECTIONS An interesting race, but one where the improving PORTERINTHEJUNGLE may make it five wins in a row. His last win at Brighton was more comfortable than the half-length margin implies, suggesting an added 3lb from the handicapper may not stop him following up. Stuart Williams won this in 2018 and has a likeable sort in Got No Dollars, who steps up in trip after winning at Kempton. Kath’s Toyboy may be an option for the places for his in-form stable, with the added furlong well worth a try.

PORTERINTHEJUNGLE Got No Dollars

Leading course trainer (16-21): S C Williams (51 wins from 393 runners, 13%) runs GOT NO DOLLARS Trainer-in-form (last 14 days): R Hughes (2 wins from 6 runners, 33%) runs KATH’S TOYBOY Weightwatcher: KATHEEFA won off a handicap mark of 89, his rating is now down 20lb to 69. Longest Traveller: LATE ARRIVAL trained by M & D Easterby, Sheriff Hutton, 212 miles.
