RAINY CITY still appears to be on an upward curve and probably only need jump around safely here to record his second victory. He won on good to soft going at Exeter two runs ago and only failed by a neck to confirm earlier Doncaster running with Big Chief Benny at Chepstow last time when the ground was much quicker. Morris The Miner may be the one for forecast-backers ahead of long-standing maiden Trakeur and Lir Flow.
