ARABIAN DESERT got turned over at 1/8 on his comeback run at Pontefract but the winner has since confirmed himself useful so Richard Fahey's Horris Hill runner-up is worth another chance. The well-bred Tornado Tower has plenty of potential given his eye-catching debut at Nottingham and can prove the main threat.
