CITY SELECTIONS A comfortable winner over C&D last week, G’DAAY looks more than capable of following up off a 5lb higher mark. Joseph Parr’s charge goes particularly well around here and he gets the vote ahead of Jilly Cooper, who dead-heated for major honours at Wolverhampton last month. War In Heaven is entitled to come on for his first run for new connections in September, while Spacer is another with the form to get involved. G’DAAY

Kevin Stott J Joseph Parr, Newmarket T Tote S TIMEFORM VIEW 3 wins from 11 runs this year. 4/1, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at this C&D 9 days ago, driven out. Still progressing gradually despite soon turning 5 so he has to be of interest once again. TFRHHHHH BHA82
Nicola Currie J Jamie Osborne, Upper Lambourn T V7 Recruitment S TIMEFORM VIEW Useful performer for Jim Bolger at best but has struggled this term and doesn’t make much appeal as TFRHHIII BHA82 things stand. Br Ch g Dawn Approach (IRE) - Luminaria (IRE) O The Judges & Partner B J. S. Bolger

Should be much closer to form today. Br B g Sepoy (AUS) - Royal Debt O Mr Mohammed Rashid B Rabbah Bloodstock Limited

TIMEFORM VIEW Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. Followed a below-par effort with an even worse one when tenth of TFRHHIII BHA81 12 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 22/1) 17 days ago.
