TAHMURAS has got plenty of speed yet was encouragingly strong at the finish when making it 2 from 2 over hurdles at Haydock and there's no reason at all why he won't continue improving for a while yet, so he's selected to come out on top. Authorised Speed and Arctic Bresil also look very promising and warrant plenty of respect, though others can't be dismissed lightly too in a race that is perhaps a bit more open than the early market suggests.
