More to be up as the week progresses Im sure. The one Im very interested in is Cityscape in the Duty Free (Im hoping he goes off a ridiculous price on the international tote). I was slightly disappointed Ambitious Dragon was only 5-1 as if he was higher I would have had a bet - he has the quality and fitness over the others.

Are you concerned at all with Cityscape seeming to prefer a bit of give in the ground?

I thought the Hong Kong race he ran in was one of the weaker of their slate of big events and am still not sure how Able One held. I guess I just don't envision Ambitious Dragon being beaten.

Nick, I'd be inclined to think that this thing that Cityscape prefers soft ground isn't true and he has run his best races on decent ground.

Plus while I agree with you that the HK Mile wasn't a brilliant race, I thought Cityscape ran a belter from the position he was in without any cover and let's say 5 wide.

If the increase in trip brings out a bit more improvement (and he is a lightly raced 6yo) he can be in the shake up!!

I almost fell on the floor when I saw the odds for A Shin Virgo in the Al Quoz.

Hopefully she'll continue to be overlooked.
