CITY SELECTIONS TRAVESURAS came out on top over C&D last time out, getting the better of a strong challenger late on. Considering the form of that contest has been advertised since, the progressive three-year-old gets the nod to land the spoils again. Flower Of Thunder arrives on the hunt for a third consecutive victory and is an obvious danger. Buxted Too hit the line with plenty of conviction to take third over 1m at Salisbury and is interesting stepping back up in trip.

PLAY SMARTER TRAVESURAS has been progressing well of late, making it 2 wins from his last 4 starts with success at this C&D last month. He can add another victory to his tally, though fellow 3-y-o Fulfilled also arrives here in good form and is feared most. Janus completes the shortlist.
