CITY SELECTIONS Although PUNDA MARIA was no match for the winner last time out at Leicester, the daughter of Oasis Dream relished the step back in trip to arguably record a career-best effort. She pulled four lengths clear of the third and may be underestimated off an unchanged mark of 62. Mcqueen has made the frame on his last two starts and rates as the most immediate danger. Shifter remains unexposed and is worthy of consideration. PUNDA MARIA
