A four-time winner last season, ALPHONSE LE GRANDE shaped as if back in top form in the Ascot Stakes on his latest outing, denied a clear run from early in the straight, so he could be ready to add to his tally this time around. Heading the list of dangers is Santorini Star, who could still have more to offer as she goes up in trip, with Dancing In Paris also in the mix.
