In depth

Verdict

This handicap chase should go the way of CITY AFFAIR while Silver Adonis the likely danger with the likes of Rushan and Glengarra looking a little high in the weights. Tim Vaughan's string are on a bit of form at the moment and the pick can continue that momentum here. Having run really well in novice events he was then switched to handicap company when he was well held off this mark in third place. This looks a lot easier so a better result can be expected. Silver Adonis shares top-weight with the selection and while his rating is competitive he is yet to prove himself over this far. Rushan and Glengarra are both under burdens way above there last winning marks while Rapide Plaisir isn't the horse he was and selling company looks to be his best chance now. With plenty of doubts around much of the field this looks a good opportunity for City Affair.
