CITY SELECTIONS This can go the way of MONSIEUR FANTAISIE, who has proved ultra-consistent since being fitted with blinkers last October. The step back up to seven furlongs looks a positive at a course he loves and the son of Make Believe can repel the challenge of Dark Design, who scored over 1m here in February. Michael Herrington’s charge Street Poet makes plenty of appeal turned out again quickly (second at this venue on Saturday), with the booking of Richard Kingscote catching the eye.
