1.55 Ffos Las – CITY CYCLONE (1pt win (16/1 bet365, William Hill)
CITY CYCLONE hasn’t always been the strongest of finishers, but he appreciated the cut back to this 7f trip when scoring at Wolverhampton in January, has plenty of form in the mud, and would have needed his recent effort at Newbury on his first start for 160 days. Progeny of his sire Cityscape are nine from 45 on proper heavy going on the Flat (+£23.95 to a £1 level stake at SP) and this sometime-keen sort should get a good tow into the race courtesy of Fleurir.
5.23 Southwell – STYLE OF LIFE (1pt win – 7/2 generally)
STYLE OF LIGHT bombed out at Pontefract last month, finishing last of seven, when I put her up
as a bet on his debut for Harriet Bethell at Pontefract last month, but she raced freely on her first start for 265 days and it’s easy to forgive. She caught the eye at Ripon next time, doing best of the front-runners when runner-up to Bowood and she’s two from three on the all-weather (including 1-1 on Tapeta).
