Tips
Verdict: Aidan O'Brien fields the same four-strong team as in the Derby. With Ryan Moore remaining loyal to the commanding Chester Vase winner BENVENUTO CELLINI, O'Brien can win this for the 18th time, and thus complete the set of major European Derby wins with three different horses. Soft ground was a bigger factor in the Frankel colt's eclipse than the controversial stalls incident. On this surface, he can show his true worth to turn the tables on Christmas Day and James J Braddock. Neither should be underestimated, given how effectively they stay. However, the main danger is probably the unbeaten Raaheeb who has good prospects of getting the trip and is fascinatingly unexposed relative to a typical fancy for this event. [Alan Sweetman]
