Formscan  - Desert Hero merits plenty of respect on his return to action having filled third place in the St Leger on his most recent outing. That said, this trip may be on the sharp side for him and preference is for OKEECHOBEE, who chased home a high-class rival on his return from a 550-day break in a Listed event at Kempton. With the benefit of that outing, Harry Charlton's unexposed gelding could go one place better. Israr and Flying Honours both have the ability to go well but also have some questions to answer, while Checkandchallenge should not be underestimated.
