CITY SELECTIONS MAYSONG is well handicapped on old form and is lightly raced for his new yard. His latest second over C&D is form that reads well in the context of this race and connections have booked one of the best amateur jockeys around, so he ticks plenty of boxes. Engrave has been knocking on the door in recent outings and would be no surprise winner, while Mc’ted also boasts claims.
