CITY SELECTIONS The veteran YOU’RE COOL has been in a tremendous vein of form of late and going by the way he won at Wolverhampton last week, a 7lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from landing the hat-trick. Super Julius ran his best race for some time at Wolverhampton last month and he is likely to be thereabouts, along with Iesha and Monsieur Patat.

PLAY SMARTER YOU’RE COOL is 2 from 2 under Rose Dawes and was impressive when scoring at Wolverhampton 10 days ago. Bidding for a hat-trick and sixth C&D success, he boasts excellent claims under a penalty (due to be higher). Charlie Wallis-trained pair, Iesha and Bernard Spierpoint, could pose the main threats to the selection.
