Broad Appeal was only beaten half-a-length over a shorter trip here last Monday and, like Voi and Percy Prosecco, is a previous course and distance winner. Simon Walker steered CITY TOUR into second place at Newbury last month, even though his mount missed the break. The top weight looks the one to beat here if getting away on terms. Say Nothing won a novice hurdle at Market Rasen last month and should be staying on in the closing stages with Mr Zee and Ruskin Red others to consider.
