The Timeorm rating of 131 obtained for his Dubai Duty Free success marks him down as one of the best performers in the world over nine furlongs...
Roger Charlton has confirmed that Cityscape will take his place in the line-up for the BMW Championship Mile in Hong Kong on May 6...
Six-year-old Cityscape produced a career-best when running out the impressive four-and-a-half-length winner of the Dubai Duty Free over nine furlongs at Meydan last month and now heads to Hong Kong with a favourite's chance.
It has been reported that James Doyle will again partner the Khalid Abdullah-owned runner having ridden him to victory in Dubai and hopes are high that the pair can claim further international honours.
The flashy-looking son of Selkirk has always been highly regarded by connections and had promised a performance of the highest quality ever since his runaway victory in the 2010 renewal of the Group 2 Joel Stakes at Newmarket.
The Timeorm rating of 131 obtained for his Dubai Duty Free success marks him down as one of the best performers in the world over nine furlongs and it will be interesting to see if he can replicate that figure back over the slightly shorter trip.
Should Cityscape oblige in early May it could be celebrations all round for the Roger Charlton team as they have the well-fancied Top Offer among the market principals for the 2000 Guineas on the same weekend. The once-raced winner is current trading at (9.28/1) for that contest.
