CITY SELECTIONS A case can be made for several of these, but a chance is taken on INVASIVE. The two-year-old filly shaped with promise when posting an encouraging second at Newcastle and she could have more to offer on her nursery debut, with first-time cheekpieces applied. Baileysgutfeeling seemed to have something left in reserve when scoring at Brighton last month and he could be a player if transferring that form to the all-weather, while Kennet and Lightening Gesture also make the shortlist.
