CITY SELECTIONS Cavern Club sets the standard following a trio of placed efforts and first-time cheekpieces could help eke out some improvement, but a chance is taken on KILCUMMIN. Joseph Parr’s colt shaped with promise over 1m on his debut last month and this step up in trip might hold the key.

PLAY SMARTER SUPER MO confirmed debut promise when runner-up behind a subsequent Group 1 winner in a Kempton novice back in the summer and, with the possibility of more to come, he could be the answer in a tricky novice. Cavern Club, with cheekpieces enlisted, Densetsu and Silver Sword head up the dangers.
