Genius Beast has plenty more to offer after his victory in Sandown's Classic Trial but Godolphin may have an even better chance with the Andre Fabre-trained Grand Vent, an impressive winner of a Group 2 here last month. Both could meet their match here with the Germany-based LINDENTHALER, who has improved with every run and looked potentially high-class when landing a Group 3 last time.
