Plenty in with a shout in a cracking Old Newton Cup. VALYRIAN STEEL arrives very much on the up and is fancied to gain his biggest prize yet with this big field likely to play to the strengths of Roger Varian's strong-travelling son of Frankel. Mark Johnston's consistent Zabeel Champion is sure to be on the premises, with handily-weighted Aaddeey and unexposed Longsider both well in the mix too.
