Ascot beckons for Assertive
Assertive was introduced at 20-1 for the Golden Jubilee at Royal Ascot with VC Bet and Stan James after his victory in the SEI Investments Stakes at Windsor.
Richard Hughes’ mount went about his business two furlongs out and found plenty under pressure to beat the 7-4 favourite Borderlescott by half a length and complete a double for his trainer Richard Hannon.
