      Verdict

      VASILIEV is another on today’s card with strong claims for the Clive Cox yard. He’s placed in all three starts so far and was clear of the rest when runner-up at Leicester last time. Rated 89, he sets a decent standard for the others to aim at. Al Battar wasn’t beaten that far when only sixth at Kempton but the remainder with experience are hard to recommend. The Pastoral Bear makes little appeal but fellow newcomer Fiery Mission could figure as a half-brother to three winners who all scored for Sir Michael Stoute.
