CITY SELECTIONS There shouldn’t be much between Internationalangel (first) and Legende D’art (third) on their C&D clash last month and both can go well again here. However, the vote goes to bottom-weight WONDER STARELZAAM, who is quickly turned out after an impressive victory on stable debut at Lingfield. Due to go up 9lb in the near future, Dennis Coakley looks to have found an ideal opportunity for the three-year-old to follow up. Yarmouth winner Broxi must also enter calculations, along with Maysong and Covert Mission.

A competitive affair. Having had to come wide INTERNATIONALANGEL can perhaps have her latest C&D win marked up slightly so she may be capable of defying a small rise. Wonder Starelzaam escapes a penalty for last week’s Lingfield win so will be an obvious danger if the outside stall isn’t too big an inconvenience. Maysong and Covert Mission are also interesting setting out for new stables.
