CITY SELECTIONS THUNDER CAT was strong in the market prior to his racecourse debut at York but Andrew Balding’s charge was unable to repay his supporters. The son of Roaring Lion can build on that effort, though, and with the step up in trip likely to aid his chances, he can strike. Indian Dream filled the runner-up berth at Newmarket last month and he features prominently in calculations, along with Prince Nabeel. Of the newcomers, Tribal Master makes the most appeal.
