CITY SELECTIONS It has been a long time between drinks for many of these, including SWORD EXCEED, who receives the vote having been desperately unlucky when short of room at a vital stage at Lingfield last month. Robyn Brisland’s charge remains 20lb below his last winning mark, and he is preferred to the likes of Irish import Dark Design, who is likely to need further, and The Tron, who wasn’t beaten far here in September. Racy Stacey is another to note, while Hope Springs could improve for the step up in trip. SWORD EXCEED
