HELTENHAM proved better than ever when scoring at Newbury last month and could be well served by a strongly-run race at the minimum trip. He is narrowly preferred to stable-companion Unexpected Party who was a convincing winner of the Grand Annual and remains feasibly treated. Path d'Oroux and Saint Roi are next best in a typically competitive renewal of this contest.
