Verdict
Beau Traveller has ability but looks worth opposing on his first start for almost a year and PISTOLET TIME is probably the one to beat. Caroline Crow's nine-year-old has won his last two starts between the flags and has a bit more scope than Sacred Mountain, though the latter came back to form when just beaten at Tranwell last month. Definite Appeal and Temple Green appear to have a bit to find to take a hand in the finish.
