FormscanBy Mark Nunan - Turning for home in the Ascot Gold Cup, VAUBAN was travelling as well as eventual winner Kyprios but the 2m4f trip was a bridge too far for Wille Mullins' talented dual-purpose performer who emptied to finish fourth. Back at the trip over which he was second in the Yorkshire Cup, he can confirm the form of that race with Tower Of London. A winner of valuable staying prizes in Saudi Arabia and Dubai early in the year, perhaps Tower Of London was feeling the effects of his travels when below par at York and a brighter display is expected after a break. Shamida, a dual Group winner over this trip last term, returns after ten months off.%0A
