CITY SELECTIONS Really competitive stuff but a solid case could be made out for C&D winner COMMIT NO NUISANCE, who ran arguably better than ever when a runner-up to a well-handicapped sort here last time. Lafan finished virtually upsides that day and is also an obvious player having only picked up a 1lb rise for a subsequent win at Kempton. Frantoio was below par at Brighton last time but had shown enough previously to be of interest off his present mark, while Mark Of Respect is running too well to dismiss despite a less than perfect draw.

PLAY SMARTER COMMIT NO NUISANCE has a good record over C&D and he’s been lightly raced over the summer unlike a few in here so he may be a bit fresher than his rivals. He looks the one to side with in a competitive race. Lafan has two all-weather wins to his name including over C&D and he will be a formidable threat. Azets is consistent and his yard are in good form so he could offer some each-way value.
