      In depth

      Verdict

      Illusive, who won at Goodwood in July when Heisman was well beaten, is 4lb higher than when successful in this 12 months ago and may find the three-year-olds Absolute Zero and AL NEKSH too strong this time around. The former came unstuck when attempting a hat-trick at Windsor last time and is a pound higher now so we'll give another chance to William Haggas' less-exposed gelding, who pulled hard and was badly hampered and eased in a very competitive handicap at Goodwood last time. Great Hall needs further than this and is likely to struggle while The Gay Cavalier could be out of his depth.
