CITY SELECTIONS A tight affair but preference is for GOT NO DOLLARS, who was well on top in the final furlong when scoring at Kempton last month. The son of Showcasing was given a 5lb rise for that success but it might not be enough to stop him from following up now returning to this shorter distance. Martineo looks to be the danger and he is respected after winning at Wolverhampton on his latest outing, while La Roca Del Fuego and Thaki can also figure.

PLAY SMARTER Another very competitive handicap and GOT NO DOLLARS looks the answer. He’s in a rich vein of form at the moment annd should be able to overcome a 5lb rise for his Kempton success. Martineo has to be feared following his Wolverhampton win. Thaki is far from out of things too.
