CITY SELECTIONS ATHERS registered his first win when scoring with plenty in hand over course and distance earlier this month and the three-year-old has an excellent chance of following up off a 7lb higher mark. Western Beat was only narrowly denied when returning from a break at Wolverhampton last time and should go well, while Arabic Welcome returns to an artificial surface and is another to consider.

PLAY SMARTER Several in with a chance but it could pay to side with ENGRAVE. Julia Feilden’s charge is yet to score away from this venue and, having slipped back down in the weights, she’s taken to notch a fifth C&D victory. Athers proved better than ever to open his account over C&D a fortnight ago so could give the selection most to think about, ahead of Western Beat and Wimpole Hall.
