SHISHKIN regained his place back among the chasing elite when scoring impressively at Ascot last month, relishing the longer trip in a first-time tongue tie. He won the 2020 Supreme and 2021 Arkle and can atone for last year's Queen Mother disappointment with a third Festival victory. Fury Road, who went close in the 2020 Albert Bartlett, has been holding his own in 3m Grade 1s and looks the biggest danger ahead of Blue Lord and Paddy Power Gold Cup winner Ga Law.
