A huge pot has attracted a very strong field but Aidan O'Brien won it with a three-year-old last year and TOWER OF LONDON can follow suit after his excellent run in last weekend's St Leger at Doncaster. Willie Mullins has six entered and Colin Keane's presence on board the classy hurdler Echoes In Rain suggests she could be the one while Teed Up, who ran three times at this year's Galway Festival and won twice, has to be considered though he's closely matched with The Very Man on the first of those races. Jesse Evans and The Shunter could pop up at any time while My Mate Mozzie is respected with his stable going so well.
