CITY SELECTIONS Bayston Hill has won five times over course and distance, including a division of this race last season, and he should go well back at his favourite course. Tom Marquand rode VOCATUS to success over a mile at Redcar last time out and if he gets the added two furlongs now then he could prove hard to beat, though Kentucky Kingdom looks a big danger. He is bidding to win here for the fourth time and it is a track he seems to handle better than most. VOCATUS
