In depth

Verdict

VAZIRABAD bids to repeat last year’s success and arrives in fine form having won a couple of Group 2 races already this year. He finished well ahead of Hughie Morrison’s Nearly Caught when second in the Prix Du Cadran last term while the the latter’s stablemate Vent De Force just missed out in a Listed contest at Maisons-Laffitte in July. Flymetothestars was narrowly beaten in the Ebor last month and there should be more to come from Sir Mark Prescott’s charge while Sirius gave the selection a race over track and trip back in May.
