Flat winner LIGHT THE CITY has the bit between his teeth again and proved his versatility by scoring over fences here 10 days ago. The three-times course winner is still on a decent mark and a hat-trick beckons. Mad For Road opened his account over hurdles over track and trip at the start of the month at the 16th time of asking and rates a danger but another course and distance winner, Baraboy, has been out of sorts lately. The others appear to have plenty to prove.
