Fastnet Tempest looked like the winner for a long way at Newbury last time and the drop back in trip could work perfectly for him, with Holiday Magic likely to tow him a long from their high draws. However, it's THE WARRIOR who is most likely to benefit and he looked an unlucky loser at Goodwood last time. Bertiewhittle needs everything to drop right and he's another who would benefit from a strong pace while Heaven's Guest looks like a well-handicapped runner. Hors De Combat's consistency should hold him in good stead and he may be chief threat to the selection with his turn likely to be coming sooner rather than later.
