BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE

CITY SELECTIONS Kanuhura is the only C&D winner in this and as she races off 2lb lower now, she may run in to a place if she can recapture that form. FIFTY SENT has to be of interest on his handicap debut after a Beverley third over an extended 7f. With the added distance looking likely to bring about plenty of improvement, he might come out on top. Bazalgette is another to consider with George Bass claiming a handy 5lb.

PLAY SMARTER FIFTY SENT has the profile of one who could fare better now handicapping over a longer trip so he’s the suggestion. Glen Cove is another who looks to have been brought along with hadicaps in mind so he’s put up as the chief threat ahead of Mick Channon’s Bazalgette, who ran 2 solid races on his return to action last month.
