BOTTI EYES FRANKEL CLASH.

Planteur faces the daunting task of crossing swords with Frankel after being withdrawn from the Sky Bet York Stakes on the Knavesmire last month.
Marco Botti's top-class middle-distance performer was a leading fancy for the Group Two contest but after walking the track, connections felt conditions were too fast and decided not to run.
Botti admits it was a frustrating scenario and it now means that provided the ground is deemed suitable, he is likely to meet the world's highest-rated racehorse back at York in the Juddmonte International on August 22.
