Verdict
THE GRAND VISIR gets a speculative vote to end a frustrating sequence of placed efforts in a contest that should play to his strengths, even though he’s fractionally worse off at the weights with Just Hubert, Rochester House and Smart Champion who finished just in front of him in a blanket finish to this 12 months ago. Withhold is a former Cesarewitch and Northumberland Plate winner and still has a touch of class while Seinesational was second in this two years ago. Buriram could also figure if lasting home while Elysian Flame is another possibility on his third in the Ascot Stakes. Platform Nineteen won on soft going at Beverley after a very long absence but this will be a much tougher test of his staying powers. Thai Terrier beat the useful Frankenstella at Carlisle in May but only beat one home over 1m6f here next time.
