CITY SELECTIONS Expert Opinion was narrowly denied at Newmarket last month and is likely to be popular amongst punters, but preference is for LUCKY AVA. Conrad Allen’s charge has been set some stiff assignments of late, most recently in a 0-100 at Goodwood. However, she drops in class and, from 1lb higher than when successful over C&D in February, can regain the winning thread. Just That Lord wasn’t disgraced at Windsor on his latest outing and is another worthy of consideration.

PLAY SMARTER LUCKY AVA has run below-par at Epsom and Goodwood on her last 2 starts, but she can bounce back on the all-weather and record a third C&D success. She had previously been in good form on polytrack over the winter, scoring here in February, so she can take advantage of a drop in grade returned to this surface. Expert Opinion goes well at this course and is feared most. Just That Lord is worth considering too.
