City Selections

Kensington Agent arrives in good form and is respected against her elders, but this may go the way of MISS BELLA BRAND, who drops in trip following a creditable sixth over 7f at Lingfield. The majority of her better efforts have been posted over 6f and she could be hard to beat back over a C&D that has suited her well before now. Trusty Rusty also warrants respect.
