BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE

CITY SELECTIONS Cases can be made for a few but preference goes to WHITTLE LE WOODS, who made a promising stable debut for Mick Appleby when staying on well to finish second at Newcastle earlier this month. The son of Lethal Force now steps up in trip and he can defy a 1lb rise for that latest effort. Porfin has been in terrific form but this appears to be a tougher assignment for him in this higher grade, while Full Intention and Legende D’art also make the shortlist.

PLAY SMARTER This looks competitive despite only 7 runners. WHITTLE LE WOODS gets the nod on the back of an encouraging first run for this yard at Newcastle last week but Legende d’Art, who had winners behind him when scoring over C&D last time, and the thriving Porfin should ensure Mick Appleby’s charge doesn’t get things all his own way.
