CITY SELECTIONS A number of these look to have chances, so MONSIEUR FANTAISIE receives what can only be a tentative vote. He has placed in handicaps over this C&D the last twice and is expected to be in the firing line again. All of Della Mare’s four all-weather performances during 2021 were encouraging and she shouldn’t be too far away here, while But You Said also merits shortlist inclusion.

PLAY SMARTER MONSIEUR FANTAISIE arrives on the up and would arguably have scored over C&D last time had he not endured traffic problems, so he’s a confident choice to make amends. Della Mare ran well under a positive ride last time and has Hollie Doyle back in the plate, while But You Said warrants consideration with the return to this trip in her favour.
