HAMMOND EAGER TO SEE GEORGE BATTLE.

John Hammond has a special reason to be interested in the outcome of the King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot on Saturday.
The English-born, Chantilly-based trainer saddled the great Montjeu to land the midsummer middle-distance championship in 2000. A champion racehorse, Montjeu also enjoyed great success as a stallion and is represented by St Nicholas Abbey, winner of the Breeders' Cup Turf and two Coronation Cups, and 2011 St Leger victor Masked Marvel in the big race.

Ryan Moore believes Sea Moon has to find a bit more to land the King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot on Saturday.
Sir Michael Stoute's four-year-old is two from two this season and landed the Hardwicke Stakes over course and distance at the Royal meeting.
"This year you've got the Melbourne Cup winner, the Arc winner, Japanese Derby winner, St Nicholas Abbey, Nathaniel - it's a very strong race," Moore told At The Races.
