The Fast Company gelding DOWNFORCE would not have to improve much on his second of seven beaten 1¼L in the Group 3 Renaissance stakes over C&D last month to land the spoils going down a level in this contest. Nearest dangers should come in the shape of 110-rated Flight Risk, a winner on his most recent start in a Listed contest at Cork in the middle of last month and the Denis Hogan-trained, Make A Challenge C&D winner in August. It would be folly to dismiss the Aidan O'Brien-trained All The King's Men and British raider Fairy Falcon while Romantic Proposal, given the record of the yard in this contest should be respected.
