CITY SELECTIONS This could be a good opportunity for BAWAADER to complete the double. The Aytach Sadik-trained inmate romped home by seven lengths in a similar contest at Kempton last week and, despite conceding weight to his rivals, should prove difficult to beat. Sirius White recorded a first career success at this course earlier in the month and looks the chief threat now up to 1m, ahead of Twistaline.

PLAY SMARTER A dual-winner early last year, TWISTALINE had been heading back in the right direction prior to underperforming at Wolverhampton last time, but she could well leave her latest run behind dropped back down in grade. She is taken to get the better of Bawaader, who arrives here in good form having won at Kempton last week. Sirius White completes the shortlist.
