CITY SELECTIONS Siam Fox ran on to score at Wolverhampton four days ago and although he has to carry a 5lb penalty for that victory, his jockey claims 7lb which balances things out. He will need a clear run which isn’t guaranteed, and may struggle to get past ROCKET YOGI, a solid third at Leicester in October and gelded since. Hollie Doyle could get a tune out of him here, with Mawkeb another to consider after a solid second in first-time blinkers.
