AL AASY will hope to reverse previous form when he renews rivalry with Al Qareem in the BetVictor Geoffrey Freer Stakes at Newbury.

The pair last faced one another in October when Karl Burke’s Al Qareem claimed the Cumberland Lodge Stakes at Ascot, with Al Aasy finishing 13 lengths behind in fifth.

William Haggas’s charge has bounced back this term, starting with second in the Steventon Stakes here over 10 furlongs before securing his eighth career victory in the Group Three Glorious Stakes at Goodwood.
