CITY SELECTIONS This may prove a good opportunity for the newcomer SHURUT, who is related to a couple of winners on the all-weather and wouldn’t require anything out of the ordinary to score in this company for respected connections. Cephalus produced his best handicap run on Polytrack and looks a danger now dropping in grade, while Bonita B is favourably treated on these terms and can also have a say.

PLAY SMARTER BONITA B has had plenty of chances but she has been consistent and perhaps this can finally be her day. Shurut is a newcomer from a good stable and would very much need considering if the market speaks in her favour. Top-weight Brilliant News ran well in a C&D nursery last time and should also play a part from the inside stall.
