CITY SELECTIONS THE CHARMER has seemingly improved for the step up to 7f and though the gelding ran creditably at Brighton on his latest outing, the return to a synthetic surface could see him to greater effect. Mike Murphy’s charge is berthed nicely in stall two and he can repel the challenge of Lethal Angel, who may find improvement in a first-time visor. Richard Hughes employs the services of William Buick on Villalobos, which may be an indicator of his chances. THE CHARMER

Dale Swift J Alan Brown, Malton T
TIMEFORM VIEW Filled runners-up spot for third consecutive time in similar company at Southwell (7f) in March and far from disgraced when fourth of 13 back at that venue (6f) in April, plugging on. One to bear in mind despite the wide draw. TFRHHHHI BHA49

TIMEFORM VIEW Course winner who wasn’t disgraced when midfield in a 12-runner Kempton handicap (7f) in March but took backward steps in 2 subsequent outings. Visor replaces cheekpieces on yard debut and further ease in class rates a plus. TFRHHHII BHA44

James Sullivan J Ruth Carr, Stillington T Xre Construction Training Ltd S TIMEFORM VIEW Twenty six runs since last win in 2017. 14/1, good second of 13 in handicap at this C&D 10 days ago, TFRHHHII BHA47 well positioned. Possibilities with a repeat for all he’s not so well drawn on this occasion. Br Br g Better Than Ready (AUS) - Glennie West (AUS) O Creative Earth Productions B Grandview Stud Pty Ltd
Hollie Doyle J Jonjo O’Neill, Cheltenham T Wasdell Group S TIMEFORM VIEW Lightly-raced maiden who arrives on the back of a disappointing ninth of 12 in minor event at Newcastle (1m) in February. Booking of Hollie Doyle catches the eye on first start since but would need to see market support to make him of interest. TFRHHIII BHA40 Br B m Epaulette (AUS) - Fillthegobletagain (IRE) O Mrs C.
