City Selections

Turned out quickly after a stylish win at Redcar on Monday, CONCORDE must hold every chance of following up on his return to the all-weather despite a 6lb penalty. My Roxanne is a maiden through six starts but she ran a career-best last time out at Lingfield, while Dame Laura Knight remains open to improvement and is one to watch out for on her handicap debut.

PLAY SMARTER

CONCORDE proved a different proposition on the back of being gelded/6 months off when bolting up on handicap debut at Redcar 3 days ago and he’s hard to oppose under a penalty with the prospect of more to come. My Roxanne may be one who gives the selection most to think about.
