LONGEST TRAVELLER: STAR FORTRESS trained by R Beckett, Kimpton Down, 322 miles.

NASHWA established herself at a higher level than this as a 3-y-o, winning a brace of Group 1 contests and with her reappearance run unlikely to be lost on her, she can outclass these switched to the AW. Al Husn is clear second choice on form, with One For Bobby another to consider on the back of a sparkling stable debut at Nottingham.
