Verdict

Street Warrior gets the narrow vote here over Benandonner and Cape Diamond. The selection won well last time at Leicester when he managed to knock almost half-a-second off the course record. He is stepped-up in trip again here which will suit and he will take all the beating. Benandonner has been in good form of late and he will be a big danger to all if he is allowed an easy lead from the front. He remains on the upgrade and is respected. Cape Diamond will be suited by the return to the all-weather after disappointing on the turf at Brighton last time. He goes well here and if he runs up to his best then he is entitled to make the frame. Gracechurch is on a handy mark and is another to consider but for the winner we are happy to return to Street Warrior.
