HOME CITY was only denied by a short-head back in novice company at Yarmouth. Blinkers may bring further improvement today and his yard has been among the winners this month. Mystery Monarch ran well for fourth over track and trip on his debut and that looks stronger form than the placed efforts of Tropez Power and Glamorous Express. Jim Crowley prefers the chances of Motashaweq to Tabeeb while Dark Swansong and Kingofhell are the first foals of smart sprinters and both are preferred to Nickleby.
