CITY SELECTIONS Anatomic was a game performer when making all at Wolverhampton earlier this month but he could be vulnerable having to concede a 7lb penalty to these rivals. ARMY GENERAL hasn’t been the most straightforward colt, but he could be a different proposition now trying first-time cheekpieces and he gets the nod to build on his recent third at this course. Francesi and Western Writer also hold claims in this open contest.

PLAY SMARTER A wide-open novice event in which SPEYCASTER makes most appeal. He improved significantly on his debut effort when third at Bath and should have more to offer. Super Lover looks like the type to take a big step forward and he has to be taken seriously. Western Writer can’t be discounted on debut either.
